He had a '74 Road Runner, too.  Has every option except the 360.  He said it's a 1 of 1.  Neat car!

$400 is a steal !

Glad you got it.  Looks like a good starting point for a RR clone or a GTX even.

My 1st new car was a 1973 Plymouth Satellite Sebring. I’ll look and see if I have any good photos as a reference but doubt it. It was a great car, $2700.00 end of year close out when new.

Right now the plans are to get it registered and insured in my name, then clean it up a bit, change the fluids, drain the gas tank and do a tune up on it.  I'm surprised how well it runs, considering how old and stinky the gas is in it!

I'll start collecting the few parts that are missing, like the headlight surrounds and the front valance, and some of the stainless pieces that are missing.  Maybe a Road Runner hood, if I can find one locally.

It's an A/C car, too, so maybe get the air conditioning working, too.

I'm going to try really hard to keep it fairly stock and simple.  I really just want a daily driver out of it.

What?  No love for stock base models?    :smilielol:

That is a pretty tasty concept.... Once I get a Road Runner hood, it'll be all downhill from there.  I love those over-the-roof stripes.  It's an original white car, but I like yellow on these cars, too, like Daisy Duke's first Road Runner, but who knows.

i have some of those parts that you are needing, i know i have 3 or 4 of the head light bezels. i think i have some tail lamp lenses, ac controls, and a few more things. You can have what you need for the price of shipping. I can have what i remember that i have sent to you and when i get home i can try to go through and find anything else i have for it. i know i pulled a bunch of stuff out of mine, just cant remember what.

Wow!!  Thanks a ton, I can't thank you enough!  I could really use those head light bezels, for sure!  :bigsmile:

Thats a steal..  I wish I had bought one a guy was trying to sell for $700 a few years ago.  I was gonna make a Daisy Duke car out of it too.
