First time in 40 years...

Tonight my Road Runner moved under its own power for the first time since 1979. It's loaded up, and I'm taking it out for its maiden voyage.

Congratulations, that's an awesome car. I was 5 when it last moved...... and my wife was born in 79..... just saying.

Gotta love a 68!

I was 4 years old...

Woohoo!

1979...the year I graduated high school. Man, that's been a long time.

Sweet! nice ride.

Well done Jeff. Bet it feels good to get it done.Now its time to enjoy it.

Very nice! Enjoy it

VERY COOl !!!!!

Jeff I'm in love with this car and I've really enjoyed watching the build.

Very nice Jeff! Terry Stumpf races are coming up soon!

That looks awesome. Congrats. That is one mean bird!

Looks Good!! Have FUNNNN....

That ole bird is looking SWEET. All the hard work and time you put into it really shows. Time to enjoy it!

I’m jealous, my first Mopar, got it in 1972. I was 17. :-) congratulations on a job well done. Have fun!

Wow!!! Congratulations. That Runner looks increadible! The work you did is world class. Now go get ‘em and enjoy it and be safe!

LOL, I wasn't even born yet the last time that thing moved! Like I told you earlier, that thing is awesome! Now that you're done w/ it...when can I drop off my cuda?

Congratulations! I am sure the experience was very rewarding.

Wow that thing is pretty! What are the specs?

As someone who does all my own work as you do, I know the work it takes to get to this, as I said in your other post, none better than a factory style car with all the trim, color, emblems and such besides the drag theme. Pure epic here. A man after my own heart. Go enjoy it.

Good for you, looks good.

Fantastic!!!

Looks amazing!!

Can’t wait to hear the track report.

You did an awesome job Jeff. It took all those years to acquire the skills and knowledge to build your car to such a high level.

I am glad to see that bad ace road runner made it thru a time in earths history when the earth was going to go into ICE AGE. All the science experts told us we didnt have 10 years left to live.
Bill Nye even said so. JUST SAYING

Great looking Road Runner, 68 and 69 were the best years, IMHO, hope its fast and handles great

X2!

Congrats on finishing it! Now comes the reward. Be careful and have fun.

Bill doesn't even have a degree in science. What a fraud. So, how did the first ride go? Very nice runner.

Your car looks terrific. Great job. Now if you get bored a few of our members could use your help in their shops to motivate them. Or in better words to do it for them. Lol 😂

SAAWEEEEETT!!!!!!!!

What an awesome looking car. Congrats on getting it back on the road!
