I have the green interior and it is nice but you can't beat a black interior...



Unless its 110* outside in the sun...




No problems with that here in Buffalo NY. If it did get that hot, I would probably go with white interior. Which I think would look good with TT1 green. But wasnt' a stock color offering on the 68 Road Runner. GTX and Sport Satellite I think, but not Road Runner.

Is it true that I will never win a race because it's green?

Thanks, those mod's sure make the car stiffer and I sure hope I can get an aluminum radiator to fit because the front core support brace was a little short when it got welded in. Tim

Well, Thursday I get to order a passenger door skin, the media blasting found a bunch of pin holes so it faster to just replace the door skin than try to patch all of the little holes. There is still 1 bullet hole in a fender that also needs to be fixed, looks like someone with a .22 was plinking at it. Tim

Thanks, I can't wait to get it home. I am planning on starting slowly on ordering parts for the finish, so I must decide if I want to go from the bottom up or front to rear, rear to front, etc. Maybe just a few odds and ends here and there with no logical order...Tim

Thanks! Body and paint were completed last year. The original color was TT1, but I really liked the shade of F5 better. This picture was taken right after she came home and I got things put back together. There's been a few more things done since then.

I just got my MMC restoration guide for hardware. I wish I had this when I took it apart, I could have done a better job of labeling things.
My passenger door skin is supposed to be here tomarrow and then I can get it down to the body shop to get put on.

Thanks JSbrown for the good deal. Tim
