Well I sold the Road Runner to a guy in Switzerland about a year ago. And today he just sent me photos of it. I think it is really cool to see my old bird in Switzerland.

It's been so long since I've seen a dash without a huge hacked radio hole I almost forgot why people hacked a huge hole in it in the first place! Sweet car man! My car is an early 72 Sebring Plus 400 a/c auto and I'm planning on making it look like a moonshine runner/stock car (paint is expensive) If you had a 71 Hemi GTX would you drive it? I have no problem with clones at all. It's your car, do whatever you want to it and DRIVE IT!! Promise me you will go smoke some Mustangs and Civic's and Evo's with that thing. Nothing like getting a beating from a car that weighs 2000 pounds more than yours... :stirpot:

Thank you buddy!!

If I had a Hemi GTX, I think I would be afraid to touch it. LoL!! But yes I would take it out a have some fun for sure. As for beating on Civic, Mustangs, and Evo's, I never had one try and race me. I think they all just figured they would look stupid with me walking all over them. That bird really moved!! Plus it was just a great driver, it had power steering, AC, and Power Disc Brakes.

But atlas, the car is now with the new owner on the other side of the world. At least I can see photos of it on the interweb.
