Can anyone tell me who might sell any books on the
proper colors and plating along with bolts and nuts to restore a 1969 Road Runner.Putting paint on mine now and even though I remember most of what it was all like when new I can not remember all the little stuff. Any help in locating any
literature would be greatly appreciated.This will fall more towards a resto mod then stock but I want all the trim,body and interior to look OE
Thanks,Bruce

Thanks for the info sight looks good. Tried to call but no ansewer and no reply yet from e-mail
but well keep trying.It is just hard to believe that this is all there is on this subject when so many cars are being restored and judged and talked about.Makes one wonder how the shops that do this can all get it right and the people saying how exact they are know this....Oh well
all I can do is keep trying. Thanks again for the help
Bruce.
