Hi i,m Building a clone 72 Road Runner purchased a factory complete air grabber and 72 grill could really use some good close up shots of the installation of the lines, Brackets and so on to install the air grabber parts in the proper locations, also need the brackets for the grill or some very good photo's to fab some. still need to find all the parts to convert to a 4 speed . when done it will have a air grabber, front and rear spoilers, B5 Blue with color coded bumpers, all that is left is install air grabber and the paint started with a super low mile Satellite 88k with Bucket seats, HD suspension, Disc brakes, Rally dash. well optioned car and no rust ever really enjoy the site nice to know theres others that love these late B-body Mopars.
Thanks,
Bill

Sounds like a cool build. Keep in mind, if you're going for a factory correct clone, painted bumpers were not an option on 72 road runners.

No just building for fun never be able to sell it waaaaaay to much invested , shame after adding up reciepts I could have bought a real Road Runner NICE one LOL planning on a 440 6 Pack in the near future just picked up 440 out of 71 GTX a friend has had sitting in his shop for 20 + years right now it,s all new Mechanics with lots of upgrades been sourcing all the parts most are repops anyone who knows the best places to buy the parts glad to hear about them. Also need a dash emblem I know they used to repop them but now i can't find them ?

And I believe, no factory ordered spoilers either!Eric wrote:Sounds like a cool build. Keep in mind, if you're going for a factory correct clone, painted bumpers were not an option on 72 road runners.
Have fun.

For the air grabber info you seek, look at the technical archive here, in the image section. The air grabber page from the FSM is reproduced there.
