Check AMD for Mopar body parts. The 69 Roadrunner roof is different than a 70. Doors too. Cloning a superbird some parts can be found on 70 dodge Coronets. The hood you want is a 70 Coronet that is modified. Side marker lights are also 70 coronet. You are cloning a car that is expensive and parts that are OEM expensive. The fenders are also 70 Coronet. I sold some 70 Coronet fenders years ago that were beat to death for a thousand. Wow what a project you are taking on. Back to the video! I’m enjoying it.

[@jdnance168]

Adding on, I think the front fenders are also from a coronet- correct me if I'm wrong 😊 .... and just saw you had stated that 😂

[@DownRange556]

@@jdnance168 no worries and they are 70 Coronet. The 70 Coronet and 70 Satellite roof I believe are the same. The 70 Coronet is an oddball of a car. It’s a one year body that is hard to find parts for and if you do they cost so much. Especially the front end parts like fenders, hood, side market lights and valance lights. They are all used on the 70 Superbird. The hood of the Coronet is cut and capped. This project will be so upside down that to regain your money from it won’t happen. But it’s a cool project. It’s basically now a rebody of a car. The trunk lid that is needed is a 70 Satellite. The hinges on them will need to be modified and those I believe can be found. This would be a car that would be best to walk away from or make a Road Runner clone and add modern power train to it.

This was way before the internet become what it is today. Late 90s early 2000s. We were still relying on magazine adds to find parts plus going to shows and swap meats. The good old days haha.

Last summer here in Canada all gas stations that used to sell 0% ethanol premium gas now have at least 5% ethanol which cars like mine don’t like (1970 Z/28 4 speed). So to combat water in fuel I use Ethanol Shield from Home Depot and also use it in my riding John Deere mower, weed wacker and snow blower. Ya here in Ontario Canada just east of Toronto, we get snow. This yr was light, only used the blower 3x’s compared to last yr every 2-3 days.

Viper ACM driveline would be crazy. Oh and the sound would be ridiculous

Well you can call it a restomod. Make it sparkle like lip gloss on a prom date and it will still be a bird Plymouth. You are a true gem of a lady for seeing this through to the end. Most car buffs would have gave up. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

BTW, I THINK THOSE LITTLE PIECES OF METAL WERE THERE AS PROTECTION FROM BUGS, INSECTS, & RODENTS FROM GETTIN INTO YOUR EXHAUST SYSTEM, AND EVENTUALLY INTO YOUR ENGINE, CREATING BIG HEADACHES

V10! This thing needs the racing thoroughbred heart from a Viper!

Maybe im a purest, maybe because I had a 70 roadrunner I don't know but with only about a 1000 of these cars floating around and one of the most coveted....it makes me feel ugly inside to think of running right for what everyone else would do and modernize it, unless your gonna flip it which is a little sickening too
