You oughta fix your 71 Road Runner either that or the 66 Belvedere Your 71 deserves to see the road

The 71Challenger!! It's a R/T & then a12RR? 😎

Well dude it sucks that you had so many problems as a result of your mad dash n thrash to get the car put together but WOW what a beautiful example of a nostalgic looking old school muscle car.

I'd do the Shaker first, then the Barracuda sitting next to it.

Just ordered one for my 70 Monaco 383🎉

love the looks but the back tires look like if they swelled up even an inch they would rub the body

1 - A12 2- 71 challenger 3- 71 road runner

2024, any updates?

Why fix someone else's mistakes I say the 71 challenger

A lot of great options, 71 Road Runner or the 69 in front of it. Love the Coronet and the Super Bee

Hey Ryan, you know my vote😮71 roadrunner😅

Well hmmm, i guess i would determine my top 3 cars in terms of speed to value and work on them together so that i always had progress even when waiting on parts. So the question becomes what action can i take that will produce the most value for me and my shop. Do i need to raise money for my big projects like that baddass shaker car? Well then what is the fastest way to add value to the cars that i know i can sell for a good profit. Then i would work on those. That way you get money coming in and you free up space. Also this is kinda out there but if a car requires a level of expertise you just dont have then consider taking one down to mexico to a highly reputable shop. The work is great and the price is way lower there.

One of the E body's!...

Sounds good Ryan.👍👍

I'm having issues but mines a stock 318 with a carter bbd 2 barrel. It runs good when I'm going to work. But getting halfway home it misfire sputtering i built the Carburetor twice sometimes it might coming from the bulkhead connector.

Sounds good Ryan

Big block mopars are notorious for the fuel pump pushrod wearing and causing a reduction in fuel pressure. It will start and run but when it's under a load or when it gets hot and everything expands it will not put out enough pressure. Measure the pushrod, I'd bet $100 that's it.

Nice job , especially for the short amount of time you had 😊

Wow brother, you basically did a episode of Overhaulin!!!! ROFLMFAO!!!!

Gorgeous car!!!! I am doing a Ls3/6L80E in a 03'Crown Vic Police Interceptor. Its a project with my grandkids!!!

Great car and a super effort you put into it. Sorry I didn't check out the car. As for me, I just cruise around in my fastback and quickly found out a fuel bowl level issue. After adjusting them up, I developed a shifting issue. A 1-2 and back to1 shift is not the way to victory. 😅 But nothing seemed to be broken, so I ran the first round of the bracket race and lost by a fender. I actually lost on reaction time. Best of luck to you next year. 👍🏁

A six pack four speed setup would be awesome.

Knew a couple B5 bees from my highschool days in the 70s. Missouri car by chance ?

Can't win them all😮better luck next year😅

I will take a six pack every time

I applaud your effort and know what you have been through. I've had similar projects but they are back on the road and being enjoyed, some by new owners. Glad to hear of another classic Mopar back on the road!

You should be proud. You covered a lot of ground in a short time. Not a lot of guys at your age these days could do that🫵. Couple ideas on fuel supply based on my own amateur stumbling around and figuring stuff out on my Cuda. 1) check to be sure your car is running at operating temp, if it is hot it can boil the gas causing vapor lock 2) make sure the gas tank is well ventilated 3) put in a return fuel line to keep the fuel cool 4) check to be sure the fan is close to the rad and if not put in a spacer as that will help run a bit cooler and avoid boiling this crappy modern gas 5) put in a bigger diameter fuel line. Hope these help somehow. Mopar🏁

Wow!!

Wow id love to be able to afford to have a 68-69 dodge Coronet of any version of 2dr other than convertible to build not that kind of money i wish,, anyway cool cars sir, especially your 69 suberbee

You'll get it Ryan it's just a matter of time and yeah it can be done with a mechanical pump... I do it every day that's all I run are stock mechanical pumps and 87 regular gas.. Now if I had something with better than 9.5 to 1 CR yeah 91 or 94.. And a better carter pump..... I vote six pak.

You have everything to be proud of. I have had the same problem with my coronet and the only thing that seem to solve It was running a return line with an electric pump and a regulator. I've used the more gasket high volume pump and same problem no fuel in the filter this new gas nowadays boils really early and temperature, I had to fix mine and seem to resolve it

I’m sorry you didn’t get to run it like you wanted to. But at least you got it there! 👍 Thanks for sharing the car. Glad we all got to see it. It is an awesome ride! 😃👍

Sure is pretty

It was awesome getting to hang out with you guys again this year!! Hopefully next year we will have our Bee there!!

As we say in Australia.... Bugger! Keen to see how she goes once you've sorted the fuel issue.

I wish things would have gone better for you, but it was still great to visit with you and hang out a bit. Good luck going forward my friend!

Least you got it there Ryan...sorry to hear you had a fuel pump fail but thats the hobby sometimes...look forward to the next vid

Fuel pump problems never end. I used to love the old reliable mechanical pumps. I have had so many failures with them in the last few years I had to go electric. In tank is the best, in line are noisy but they work. The holley blue, electric pumps are junk too, they dont last more than a couple years.

Nice car Ryan. Thanks for sharing. 👍

Thanks Ryan and nice to meet your dad. Car is a great candidate for Mopar greatness! You’ll get it ironed out. Track testing is always key!

good job on getting it there and driving it.

Hey,was that a newer china crap fuel😮 pump

You'll get it man! I have an edelbrock high volume mechanical fuel pump on mine,it's been on there about 5 years,haven't had any problems. Good luck,love the car!

car looks great keep truckin

I think the wrecker leaked more than most... 80W90... The PTO fix I attempted didn't work

Keep up the good work. You'll get it sorted out!

30 days go way to fast

Awesome car! I really feel for you bringing it all the way and have things not work out. Glad you had fun anyways. You're a great guy and I'm cheering for ya!

It seems there are always bugs to work out no matter how well you plan everything.
