Road Runner Nest

Does anyone know where one could find the roadrunner head that goes in a 71 grill.I called paddock and yearone no got.

ebay has them quite often...seems to be the only place

Be careful buying a reproduction. Unless they've changed recently, the repro ones available are metal, not plastic like the originals. They're very poorly painted (looks like a kid did it) and the threaded stud on the back isn't long enough to actually attach it to the grill. Keep an eye on ebay for an NOS or good used one.

I bought mine off of Ebay. I think it was about $25 bucks or so. It is metal, but its nice. I have no complaints with it. It even has the Chrysler part # and Pentastar stamped on the back.

The name of this thread, Roadrunner head, gave me flashbacks to the Starlight Drive In Movies and the pyt in the halter top, long hair, and. . ..



roadrunner head. ....


Nice memories man. . .

Here is a close up of the one I bought off Ebay for about $28 bucks. It is metal, and the screw wasn't long enough to fit the grill. But I backed that screw out and put in a longer one. It turned out great to me.

Thanks for the info i will keep an eye on ebay. Something must be up with all the venders it seems everyone that i have called are selling no embles of any kind.I even called laysons and they told me there vender went out of business.

WOW for $124.95?

BUT it's a no reserve auction and the bid is $20 right now

I bought the one above it for $26:00+shipping that other one looks a little strange in the side view.

that bird head for gill is cool i want one
just to have it

I good thing to achieve would be to get an original and make molds to reproduce them,paint them correctly than sell them.

i think some one dill the head out put in some lde lights. in it so went you turn on lights. it lights.up too
