Cool car, rare color, great to have all its original parts. I really like the basic setup, as per the Road Runner's original "mission brief". Blue interior?

I noticed what looks like no rad support blackout, and an odd fit between left fender & door. Take a good look around there.

Yes it has basic two tone blue interior. I'll check out those other items.

Cool. Post a pic of the tag.

Bonus points for the blue interior in my humble opinion.
Also, compare the contours of the left quarter (looks like primer) to the right (looks like original paint) at the door lock pillar, and the pillar itself. Contour there is kind of complex: should be almost concave in "plan view" (viewed from above) right before it swells convex. Compare the quarter's welded edges just inside the pillar too. Hopefully that primer isn't hiding anything. It's pretty likely that the fender is just too high at the back & too far in at the bottom, easy adjustment.

Yes there is primer in the spots that are a little brighter blue than the faded blue. Metal has been put in both side lower quarters front and rear of the tires. I agree that the fenders and doors could use some adjustment.

Been trying to get my hands on some 15X8 Magnum 500's. These on National back order for some reason? Anyone else having the same issue? This is an original full hub cap red line tire car but I don't have the original rims and just 3 of the caps. I decided I really like the magnums, same as I have on my 70 6 barrel car.

IMO, if you are not going for the as delivered look ….. work
- the all chrome "15" Magnum 500s" are too played out, try some vintage style aftermarket mags, CRAGAR SS or aluminum slots would be a better fit with an authentic vibe for a "stripper RR" twocents

I would rather do the Cragar SS like I have on my Formula S but those things drilled are about $200 bucks a piece for the sizes I want.

But, upon further review, the Cragar SS comes with the center caps. Magnums do not. Soooo, just ordered Cragar SS's from Summit.


BTW. Awesome bronze Roadrunner. My favorite color.

up

the T7 "saddle bronze metallic" coupe (RM21) is the polar opposite of your car
it is factory OPTIONED with ~$1000 of OPTIONS & it doesn't have A/C or any stripes apimp

the typical RM21 for '69 had ~$400 worth of OPTIONS, with the $102.15 3.91 axle package you are well below that ….. what else does it have? a radio?

is there a b'cast sheet?


Yes it does have an AM radio that still works. I haven't found a broadcast sheet yet but I do have the original window sticker and the only options are A31, R11 ($61.55) and W11 (deluxe wheel covers at $21.30) totaling $185.00. I still have 3 of the original covers.
