1969 Roadrunner FINALLY DRIVES and It's FOR SALE?!
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
In what is likely the last video on this beat-up old classic '69 Roadrunner, my son JD and I craft and cobble together a mount for the alternator, driveshaft, transmission cooler, pan, filter, and lines. I mean, really, this car hates me! The cumulative effect of all the hassles of rebuilding and reviving this old muscle car has pushed me to the point where I am selling the car - YES, this Classic Muscle Car is FOR SALE for the low, low price of $4,000 - contact me if interested. Proceeds to fund the Holey Goat performance engine rebuild. No matter my frustration with the car, I am calling this MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! We pulled this abandoned car out of a junkyard and gave it a second gasp at life after sitting, left for dead, for some 25 or so years.
UPDATE 12/28/2022: The Roadrunner has SOLD!
The 1969 Plymouth Roadrunner project car was sourced from Nobody Else's Auto in Great Bend, Kansas. Find Project Cars For Sale here: rdkll.co/ProjectsParts or visit @NobodysShow on KZread: / @nobodysshow

I've seen many back yard mechanics, but you take the cake. If you're going to teach your son how to do things, then for gods sake. please teach right, safety, the proper use of hand tools. I couldn't even make 5 minutes, good luck and I sincerely hope you don't injure or kill someone.

I love watching Dalton show JD how to do real world things that will be a benefit for his future. The lesson of how to work with his own two hands is a better education than JD could ever learn anywhere else. The love between this father and son is priceless!! I love this channel!

Coming from a Road Runner fanatic I'm glad to see this one get a second chance at life. I have a huge appreciation for the work you and your son put into the Road Runner as well as the other vehicles and videos. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with the van and Eagle. One more thing, if the Road Runner is "cursed," it couldn't have anything to do with being a Plymouth could it? you know, like that possessed '58 Plymouth Fury known as Christine.
Those brackets looked way too nice for the car anyways. The jumper wire catching on fire was hilarious, you always got me LMAO.
I like how on every project you check when filling to see if its pouring on the ground. I've been guilty of my tractor oil changes losing a quart or 2 because of the non existent drain plug.

Thanks for bringing this iconic car back on the road! Perfect project for a cool tough Mad Max cars that scare children when it drives by because it's so scary tough and loud, perfect.
For years and years I would lay awake at night and dream of one day owning my very own ‘69 Roadrunner. That dream is now and forever over. Thank you! I can sleep again.😴😴😴🥱😴
Dalton, I have three things to say: 1. I’m sorry I threw shade on your plan to use the GM alternator a couple videos back. As soon as I saw the all-thread pivot rod going back to the head I knew you were on the right track; that was my fix many years ago on my 318 ‘68 Dart sedan (AKA the best $250 I ever spent). I should never have doubted you - won’t happen again. 2. As a life long MoPar guy, I can say with confidence the Plymouth doesn’t hate you; it smells fear. 3. Again, as a MoPar guy, I have to say you’ve got it backwards: Sell the Goat to finance the ‘Runner (I know you would never concede to that) Another great video!

I've just started watching this channel and am really enjoying it. Just pressed play on this video while taking a quick sip of my drink and needless to say the drink didn't stay in my mouth. This is probably the best intro/start to a video I've ever seen.....LOL
Dalton,I see JD having a bright future with you on the channel and likely eventually his own channel later in the future. It's cool to me how much he catches on and plays out your sarcasm the way he does. Honestly most young men his age wouldn't be quite as savvy as he is to your crude style humor. Love the style, great content and really enjoy seeing you two interact in the shop together. Keep up the good work and great job with the camera JD. Wish I didn't live all the way over and up in NY so far away from all my favorite meta friends!
Congratulations on the movement of the 69 Roadrunner. It does run pretty well. And it may make a nice builder. Thank you for sharing! Sometimes it’s better to cut bait. And so right needs a transmission. And JD is honest.
Glad I found this channel, reminds me of first garage I worked on my stuff in, didn't need floor dry because what I drove daily had enough dirt and rust falling off it to use for clean up and I think they used a 2x4 to finish concrete floor and I used whatever gently used (junk) parts I could find because I was broke and had to get to work in the morning
Let that one go, you did what you said, it rolls under it's own power, time to get on to a project that gets "YOUR" excitement flowing, that in turn gets us in it with you, and maybe a "lightning strikes twice" series of a build for you to draw in more folks and have a blast doing it 😎
Excellent budget build and a awesome father and son project. Keep up the good work. Sell it as soon as you can.......
Heck yeah. You and the boy are doing fantastic. Keep up the great work and I will keep on watching
I'm so glad I went back and watched the entire series. Made so much sense. What I'm wondering is exactly how and when the transmission decided to actually give you first (and park) ... b/c the vid went from "no gears) to first/park and wild ride around the yard. Your son will remember these moments forever and will be retelling these stories to his grandchildren a half a century from now. Way to go Dalton. :)
You my friend have become a proven seasoned putter back on the roader amazingly talented modest artist. I really, really look forward to you building that bad ass "70's Vibe Cool Van" It should and I bet will be an all out Hum Dinger ! 👍👍👍💥
It was awesome seeing you and your Son get the curst of a Mopar runner lay a cross on it maybe that will fix everything. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
Don't feel bad my friend I couldn't roll a 7 even if I had loaded dice My garage is a tarp over what I'm working on and at current time I am putting new valve stem seals on my 03 ram 1500 4x4 with a 5.7 hemi ( she's fighting me all the way and I have 2 bad knees, legs swelled twice as big as they should be a major lower back issue You and JD keep up the good work I have a lot of respect for you both
It’s great to see it moving under it’s own power. Nice work!
Thanks for getting back to me that means a lot to me love your videos God bless 🙏

@Auteur Fiddler , unfortunately it's not even a good parts car. But the "story" behind it is the ONLY reason I want to see it through. It is rotted out horrible, but the original owner purchased it 05/25/70 and had it only a short time before being drafted into Vietnam; according to the second owner's brother and his best friend. The brother also said that every year he and his family around the holidays would go up to their grandparents house and see it sitting under a pine tree next to the garage. Every year, they would knock on the door and ask if they would sell it. The old couple would say no it was their son's car and they wouldn't sell it. Fast forward to November of 1982, same thing, but the old lady said to them, my husband recently passed away, so give me your name, address, and number and I'll leave it with the title. I am not well, and I'll leave a note with it. ". Once again this is what I was told. Anyway, the beginning of May, 1983 "John" was notified by mail from an attorney that he could buy it from the estate. John took a loan from the bank ($2,146.40) and purchased it 05/25/1983. He put a lot of work into it (they said about 1.5 years until he could drive it) repainted it, wrecked it, repainted it again, and wrecked it again. Unfortunately as he was repairing it for the second time, he passed away suddenly. I don't know when exactly. I purchased it 05/23/2012. It was stripped of all the "Eliminator" specific parts and it had a '69 nose bugger welded on it. I found another 70 Cougar parts car and transferred the parts to make it run: until my buddy and I were just about to go for a ride, something wasn't quite right with the steering. The frame rail was rotted out horrible where the power steering mounted. THE FRAME RAIL WAS COVERED BY METAL TAPE AND SPRAYED OVER WITH UNDERCOATING 😳😱☠️☠️☠️ So out of respect to the first owner who I was told is considered to be MIA/POW of the Vietnam War, I felt that the vehicle deserved to be redone as a respect for our veterans who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our country. My way of saying thank you for your service. God bless.

Cool that you got it to move. Hopefully it goes to Dylan McCool or someone who will make work enough to drive in "as is shape" and not someone crazy enough to fully restore it. Looking forward to the van build.

It is really good to see that PBG always ware the proper PPE when he grinds on things LOL .
I've had cars that hated me, so I understand the feeling. One was a '77 Firebird. That car thought having a good time meant to stall and not restart for 45 minutes in the worst places possible. Really though, that car's problem was mostly the brand new design spread bore Holley 2 that I fought and fought and fought with, replacing a blown power valve with almost every tank of gas. There is a reason those carbs were only made for a very short time, then the Holley 2 name was moved to the remanned OE carbs to save face. The other one was an '86 IROC Z/28. That one thought I was it's sugar daddy. The first 3 months I owned that POS I replaced the radiator, the engine and the cat (smog testing where I lived). Never had any problems like you're having with Mopars, but it could happen. Back in the time when cars had personality, it does seem that they almost all had their own spirit. Some were not so nice.
You are correct, some projects tell you if they want to be saved or they are perfectly happy rotting to death, this one gave you all the signs of which way it wanted to go!
Hilarious - the car equivalent of Electroboom! Hope you also get a shop heater with the proceeds.
replace that banana shaped tensioner bracket with a hardware store eyelet turnbuckle and you got yourself a fancy schmancy "OEM Improved" adjustable alternator. done that swap a handful of times on tractors and it works just great

Since Im a new subscriber and watched every Holy Goat and Rolled Runner video (and the 59 ford compilation) Ive gotta say Ill miss the Runner. I'm mostly a GM guy but I like Mopars as well. I liked what you did to that Ford by the way.

I know this is old but I'm gonna say it anyway, if you don't wanna deal with cables and are capable of making a few 45° to 180° brackets(just cut em out of something, doesn't really matter, I use an old truck frame), draw out what you think you need, use some decent all thread, cut it to length, put some cheap o-rings on it about every two-three inches, slide a piece of aluminum tubing over the all thread with the o-rings on it and cap it off with a properly sized heim. Make sure your bolts going through the heim are snug and you're good. You're brackets to get your angles just bolt anywhere that's open and make sure they have good, free range of motion. Usually only take 1-3 brackets depending on what you're doing, it feels way better, and you don't have to worry about cables.
I've been watching the videos for this car and it's been really interesting, I've been watching some of the eagle stuff too. That's a lot of work, good job. 😎👍👍

One thing About a mopar transmission. They make a wonderful amount of clutch butter.
Trans might be gummed up with varnish. If someone wanted it they could maybe fix it by flushing it with some diesel fuel. That's my guess. Have a 78 dodge b300 with a 360 and an a-904 trans. Someone told me that allegid trick a few years back. Never tried my trans is fine. Thank you for the Hemi Orange by the by! Great video!

"Kind of a professional"? Keep them coming Dale. 😆
FYI you can make a vacuum pump out of an old fridge compressor using nothing but the compressor, a cord end, some hose and an empty glass bottle possible sourced from your liquor cabinet. Then you'd never have to get a mouthful of gas again. Also you can measure crankshaft endplay with feeler gauges.

Lol I had a 66 Plymouth Satellite that has a 273/904 that that happened to the trans as well, it also had gunk in the pan which was clutch pack material. Basically the clutch packs fell apart and basically heat welded themselves to where it was stuck in first gear, you could shift through all of the gears but it was always 1st, going in reverse would bind the trans up like you were holding the makes in gear. Good to see the rolledrunner get to move at least before you sell it though!
