8/29/2002 - Air Grabber Central!
Well, in the quest to find the best parts I can for this project, I wound up buying a set of 3 Air Grabber hoods. http://www.roadrunnernest.com/Project/2002-08-29/DSCF0001.JPG http://www.roadrunnernest.com/Project/2002-08-29/DSCF0002.JPG http://www.roadrunnernest.com/Project/2002-08-29/DSCF0003.JPG ...

8/17/2003 - Out comes the Dash
Not a tough project, but you have to be careful to make sure you get EVERYTHING disconnected from the dash to the car. No problem this time, since I learned my lessons in a green Satellite in a junkyard in NC. http://www.roadrunnernest.com/Project/2002-08-17/DSCF0003.JPG Let's just say it's also a l...

8/15/2002 - More of the Interior comes out
All the interior panels are carefully removed.
And stacked up on the car to be boxed up and put away. I'll be reusing them as they are really nice.

8/13/2002 - More disassembly, and the new decklid
Back seat out of the way. http://www.roadrunnernest.com/Project/2002-08-13/DSCF0008.JPG Original decklid has seen better days, espically around the trunk lock hole, so I was looking for a better piece. Off it comes. http://www.roadrunnernest.com/Project/2002-08-13/DSCF0009.JPG Bruce found this reall...

8/12/2002 - The teardown begins.
Just a couple of pictures from the beginning of the teardown for the restoration. Bumpers are off and have already been traded in as cores on a fantastic rechromed set from Tri-City Plating. http://www.roadrunnernest.com/Project/2002-08-12/DSCF0004.JPG The roof really makes a nice place to stack the...

In the Beginning....
There are a number of pictures of how Project Bluebird looked before the project began in both the Image Gallery as well as under our Featured Cars. Here are the last pictures of her in the faded red, with the beat up quarter panel. A few detail pictures of how bad some of the areas were (or how goo...

History of the 1971 Plymouth B-Bodies
This is the text of an article entitled "B-Body Beautiful" written by John Sloan. It appeared in the March 1992 Issue of High Performance Mopar Four hundred and twenty six cubic inches may fire the imagination, but looks capture the heart. And many a good salesperson will tell you that the heart is...

Body Interchange for 1971-1972 B-Bodies
Compiled by Jeff Hargraves All hoods interchange between the two years. Three hoods were offered in all. The standard Road Runner and GTX hood has engine call outs in the hood depressions. The air grabber hood was available on RR and GTXs. The Satellite had its own hood which was also the same stee...

Suspension Interchange for 1971-1974 B-Bodies
Compiled by Jeff Hargraves and John Johnson Rear axle housings (8 3/4) appear to be interchangable from 71 to 74, note the track of the B body was widened in 71. I have read that this axle was discontinued somewhere in 72-73, but I have found them in 74 B bodies consistantly. Rear springs appear to...

Interior Parts Swap for 1971-1974 B-Bodies
Compiled by Dave Goerlich and Jeff Brown There are few, if any, sources for reproduction interior pieces for the 71-74 B-bodies. This sends those of us who are trying to restore these cars to the boneyards and swap meets in search of these parts. Here are some points to keep in mind when looking fo...
