Road Runner Nest

Can anyone give me the absolute most correct finishes and colors for the '72 Road Runner Grille and taillights? Dave has given me some info. but I need all the specifics as mine are the wrong color, someone painted my grille black.
Thanks!
Mike

Did you see my reply to your post on moparts?

Yes, thank you! I was hoping for some pics, anybody got any? Also, is there a spray can paint that's a match? Hoe about for the taillights?

Hey does anyone have a link to that post on MOPARTS? I spent some time looking for it last night but couldn't find it.

Thanks,

Dennis

click the shop on top, Parts department, authentic restoration colors.

They carry good colors.

Here's the moparts post http://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/sho ... ost3632448

The taillights on a 72 runner would be black (like the pic in your other post). The can paint Totally Auto carries isn't bad for the 71 grill, but I don't believe the 72 color was the same. You'll probably have to have it mixed to get a correct color.

A follow up, if I may. I have a collection of 1972 taillights painted dark argent and one that is silver. Which ones go where?

Didn't Satellites get the argent tail lights?

1972 RR tail lights are black see picture, also GTX placement of emblem.

Hey, BINGO! That's what I needed!!! Is that your car? And, hope I'm not being a pain, but are you SURE that is the correct placement on the decklid? If so, could you post the measurements of the decal and emblem locations? I would be forever indebted to you. I have seen so many different placements that it is so hard to tell what was originally correct.
Thanks a million,
Mike

This and emblem placement post should be together. Hey 1972rm23,did your car come from the factory with the rear emblem there?
