Sins??? My last attempt at pictures--tell me if it works
I hope you guys can forgive me, but I wanted to share the story and hopefully pictures of my first mopar project.
Back in 1992 I purchase a Wisconsin 1972 Plymouth Roadrunner. It was a 400 slap stick auto car. The interior was beautiful! No cracks, no fading, no nothing....It was awesome.
The body was a different story. The car was restorable but would have been a lot of work.
A friend located a incredible 1971 6 cyl. Satellite from deep in the heart of Texas. A body with slight surface rust but you could eat off of the floor boards, trunk and everything underneath.
So you know what I did. I exchanged the interior of my 72 with the body of the 71 with vin number (no other tags were removed) I wasn't trying to fool anyone just make a nice car. Welded on motor mounts to put in my freshly rebuilt 1969 440 bored 30 over 750 dual feed holley. Rebuilt front end, new leafs, and sway bar. Everything we could do we did down to the 2.5 inch exhaust and rebuilt tranny.
I sold this car as a 71 RR clone with 72 tags going on 8 years ago. It was a beautiful car. I recently purchased my second 72 road runner and couldn't be happier.
I will try to post pictures of all three cars if I can figure out how.

Did you try photobucket?
That is the one I use.
When you upload a photo, there are three links below it...the last on is link for auction.
Copy and paste that link into your post and your picture will show.
The link looks like: " [img] (your photo here) [/img}"
The img tag tells the post to show a linked picture.
Let me know if you need more help.
