Well guys I need some motivation...    I have the carcass of a 1969 Plymouth Road Runner 383 / 4-speed Coupe...    Needs a complete restoration...   floors, minor rust repairs, engine, trans, interior....   the full nine...     So some background:

I already have a 1968 Charger with a 6.1 Hemi and a 5-speed... (Show car duty)    I also have a 1966 Plymouth Satellite Convertible with a 318 poly auto....   (casual cruising)

So what do I do with the Road Runner ?   Here are my ideas....

1. 383 4-speed "Beater" with a 3.23 and flat black paint
2. Baddest 440 4-speed I can whip up w/ mini-tubs and a 4.10 Sure Grip
3. Restore back to stock (black with white gut 383 4-speed car)
4. Stock 440+6 4-speed M-code clone in Omaha Orange
5. Sell it to Glad    

6. Make a suggestion...  what do you guys want to see ?

440+6 4 speed gloss black with flat black 440 lift off hood, and Steel wheels with chrome lugs.  Skinny tires on steelies are cool!!!!!
