johnbuzzed Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 That looks nice, Mike; it has a great rake and I like the color. I did plan to use the same on my '68 and yours verifies that choice. And as usual, great story. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmike Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 Thank you all for the nice remarks for my Road Runner and the story! I wanted something basic looking and I had just started putting together my story and thought the two would work well together. Having the necessary components (auto trans, tire graphics, paint) handy really helped with the build. The story grew substantially on its own and is significantly longer than what I had posted here. I have always maintained that the story is kept short and the build takes priority, but I do appreciate the requests for more story. I am very satisfied with the outcome of both the build and the story. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
