Vehicle Detail

1970 Road Runner 2 door post project being sold with no reserve. This car is just a rolling shell and will require everything to get it back on the street. Car is sold as is with no additional items offered or included. Everything I have for the car is on it and there are no additional items as part of the sale. Car requires engine, trans, all electrical, cooling, instrumentation, interior, fuel system, as well as some needed sheet metal repairs. Over all metal is in decent condition. Roof, dutchman, drip rails, upper quarters, passenger compartment floors, inner fenders, sub-frame are very solid. Front fenders are decent but have some plastic on the front edges. Rear quarters are fair but will need lowers replaced. Despite its primered and ready for paint look, it still needs work. I verified there is plastic in the lower quarters. Its visible in the passenger fender as well. It may be in other areas but nothing that was obvious. Trunk floor and trunk extensions are shot and need complete replacement. Trunk lid has some un-repaired damage. Hood has extensive damage on passenger corner which is carried through to hinge mounting area. Fender tag reads as follows: 134734; vin sequence # V0E; 440 cid 390 hp 3-2bbl 8 cyl, 1970, Los Angales CAD21; Heavy Duty 4 spd manual transE87; 440-6 bbl H Engine051726; order number302; build date Mar, 02, 1970TX9; uper door frame blackM2X9; medium grade black vinyl bench seatFY1; Lemon Twist paint codeN96; Fresh Air hoodN41; Dual exhaust w/o tipsM21;Roof drip rail moldingsJ25; 3 spd variable wipersA33; 3:54 Dana 60 Track packageFY1; Lemon Twist roof colorJ11;Glove box loxkY14 Sold car 69-7126; 26" radiatorEND; end of tag Now with all of that out of the way, be advise that this car has all the attributes of being a re-body. The VIN number on the title, the vin tag, and fender tag DO NOT match the numbers stamped into the radiator cowl or the trunk lip. The numbers in these areas appear to be 6 O or 8 173996. I picked this car up as part of a trade. The conditions at the time of this transaction were such that I could not verify all the vins stampings, but I was more concerned with its overall condition than the vin match. If you are buying this car, you should be as well. Since all the documents I have for this vehicles suggest it is 134734 and not 173996, its can only be considered a rebody and future paperwork would only be processed as 134734. However, if you want a solid start to a project and have all the parts lying around to complete it, this could be a very nice car when it is complete. Speaking of paperwork, I'm sure this will be a chore to complete as it is a mess. I have an original title from 1983 from Hilo Hawaii with notice of transfer assignment to the new owner. This owner never title the vehicle and resold it to an individual in Utah earlier this century. This owner never title the vehicle and I picked up in Utah a couple of years ago and have not titled it myself. I picked it up as a semi-solid project to begin some significant modifications to create a modified car without consideration of the "value" of a rebodied 6 pack, fresh air, 4 spd car. As a rebody, its value will always be less than a pedigreed car with a traceable history. Keep this in mind. Other details worth mentioning; the floors are real solid.The frame rails are all solid. Inner fenders are very good. There is no Dana 60, only an 8 3/4 rear. The extra long shackles have gotta go, but they hold it up for now. The old dish mags are cool and the overall stance lends this to the gasser look and suggest it would make a very good beginning for a dedicated race car. There are significant traces of B3 blue throughout the shell. The air grabber is cool and the scoop mechanism is in okay condition but the inner and outer hood needs serious work. Rear side windows are pop out style. Doors are from an equivilent Dodge and are solid. Glass is not bad, but I haven't cleaned it well to verify. Please keep in mind this car is sold AS IS with all its warts, problems, lack of history, lack of parts, and suspect circumstances. Please bid accordingly as you are not picking up an uber rare mopar. Pick up is the buyers responsibility. I can hold the car for a short time after auction completes so you can arrange transport. Thank you for looking and good luck.
