Here is one I have checked on a couple of times. I will be checking it out again soon, hopefully I can get better pics and finally find out for sure if it is what it appears to be. It appears to be a badly oxidized B5 car. The only way it can be real is if it is a radio delete car. I did not see a fender antenna.

I bet a radio delete T/A would be pretty rare. I converted my car to a t/a and filled in the hole in the fender then painted the car and completly forgot to redrill the hole in the quarter before we painted it  :smilielol: so i am just going to leave the antenna off of it i guess. I think it looks better that way anyways

You should try to get ahold of that road runner.

There's a private collection of mostly junks visible from Interstate 91 near Northampton MA. A friend knew the owner and hooked me up with him when I needed a parts car for a Lincoln for a restoration project and the owner showed me around after we made the deal. The first clue I got that he had some rare stuff was when he pointed out an old Torino that had no glass and was pretty dented. He asked "what do you think that is worth?" and I told him $100. He pointed out the word "Talladega" stenciled on the front door and then I noticed the unique front grille. Some time later I saw the back of a '69 Roadrunner under a ton of junk and a tarp in a lean-to. He told me he bought the car new and put it away after 16,000 miles because it scared him. He asked me what I would give him for it and I said $2,500. He pulled up the tarp and showed me a Hemi badge on the back and said "now what do you think it's worth?". Of course he wasn't planning on selling it.

This was back around 18 years ago. The yard is still there and I often wonder about the Roadrunner.
