Thanks guys, I've wanted a 70 runner ragtop for the longest time and really love them. Found this car and thought it would be perfect as I wanted to do a triple back 70 runner ragtop convertible. Then I found out they only made 33 of them and I started having second thoughts. I guess if someone wanted to make it a satellite again down the road all they would need to do is put the orig hood back on it and drill the holes for the trim, and change the tailights back. I plain on changing the interior over to black as well. I also plan on adding the v21 satin black hood treatment and factory rear stripe in satin black. I'll also add the running bird decal on the front fender with no dust trail. 440+6 decals on the hood as that's what I plan in installing into the car down the road. I'll keep all the original driveline to it and satellite parts that I take off it. Should have some pics for you guys real soon.

It's your car, do as you would like with it.

I do have to say that I like the way the chrome trim and the silver tail light panel of the Satellite contrast with the black paint. The dechromed Road Runner looks a little plain IMHO.

Likely once it's a Road Runner clone it will never be a Satellite again.

Either way it will look really good, and it's your car, your money, your time...

Yup, I've known about the car since I bought a macho ramcharger off of him back 6 years ago. I've always liked it and was in the market for one so I asked if he wanted to sell and lucky for me he did. I guess he picked it up at Carlisle back in 96 or so. I keep forgetting to bing the original paper work home with the original owners name on it to try and track him down for some original photos of it back in the day.

Tom is a character for sure and always has some cool old Mopars around. My buddy with the TX9 RR ragtop pictured above also kept that car in the back of his mind just in case Tom decided to part with it! Guess you beat him to the punch

I really didnt get much time to talk to any one at the show, I think I was to busy chasing my little girl around the show(lol). I havent done much to it in the last two weeks I've been busy with every thing else it seems like. I've got it stripped down to a bare shell. It's all ready to go down to the sand blast guy now. I'll get it back and dp90 all the bare steel and go from there. I promise I'll post some pics when I get it looking alittle better. I cant wait to get the shell all painted out black.

Sure was fun Friday night watching over 200 cars doing burnouts on the street which were encouraged by the local police!

I know it, it's pretty cool how they let you do burn outs during the parade. Just hope some idiot doesnt go crazy and hurt some one and ruin it for future fun.

I have to say this picture makes me very excited to get mine done. It's my new desk top back ground.
