Congratulations on yet another AMAZING find. I love RoadRunners, I know you can't get on this one anytime too soon but I'm looking forward to the next vid on this car. Don't sell this one Chris, it's your only Road Runner and unless you pay tens of thousands of dollars, you won't find a better one. Truly an amazing car - the way it roared back to life after 30 years....WOW!

My dad had a red road runner 383 4 speed car with the air grabber hood and was the love of his life then he met mom and some time after I came along, I'd like to think I was conceived in that car lol but who knows I never asked. I think dad got rid of it when he and mom still lived in Atlanta GA, so if your seeing this comment and have a red RR you bought from a good ole boy from the mountain's of NC named Michael and was sporting a perm then HMU in the comments!! I only have one pic of it in the parking lot of an apartment complex in ATL with mom standing in front of it, But was told lots of stories about it from family and they said it was a bad ass ride. Never talked to dad about it cause unfortunately he died when I was 9 but mom told me about dad raising all manner of hell in it. Seeing this beauty brings back memories of those crazy stories!!!! Thanks for the Awesome content!!!!! Can't wait to see more of this time capsule lol!!!!
