68 Road Runner Original Owner interview. Restoration Horror Story.

[@carlu-dovica]

Wish I still had mine. Drove it off the showroom floor, 1968. What a hot-rod!

[@Blu_Grit_Garage]

I wish I still had my 1969 Mustang GT, but a drunk took care of that. All I have left is the gas cap which was weird that it was not damaged.

Wonderful car and owner. We're all lucky to have people like him in the hobby being good stewards of such a nice car - and willing to share his story, which may be even more important than the car honestly. - Ed on the Ridge

[@Blu_Grit_Garage]

Agree whole heartedly.

I have my stepfather's first brand new car 65 Rambler Marlin

[@Blu_Grit_Garage]

Is that the one people confuse with the early Charger because of the Fastback style back window?

[@donaldcurtis9229]

@@Blu_Grit_Garage yes it is

[@glennjohnso310]

I sold my 68 RR with a 426 HEMI so my kids wouldn’t fight over it when I’m gone.

[@Blu_Grit_Garage]

Gotta love family! Of course you could have kept it and got buried in it so you could drive it when you got to the other side.

He's owned that RR for 50 years and he dont know how to open the hood?

[@Blu_Grit_Garage]

Severe arthritis & a stiff latch I appreciate when people let me video them so I try not to make them uncomfortable and I do not touch their rides.
