its gonna be a really busy winter if I want to drive this in spring! I wasn't sure about adding the bubble wrap to the floor, i Don't think it'll do much good - But I will be doing the B-Quiet on the firewall, wheel wells, and if there is enough left over, in the trunk as well, I bought a body plug kit somewhere from year one, I gotta search through all the stuff I bought over the past year to find it so I can put them in before the B-Quiet, also If I can find the interior screw kit I can install my headliner and a,b pillar and window moldings...

I got a present today in the mail:
My new spoiler from spoilers by randy! - http://www.spoilersbyrandy.com/Pages/default.aspx
its the first one for the 71-72 roadrunners!
his pic mounted on a front valance:
I'll get some mounted pics here on friday in the daylight when I'm not working so you can see it on the front of the car before I get it painted!!

its unfortunate but the spoiler just didn't fit right, had a huge gaps on both sides so I tried my spare valance and same thing. Randy was kind enough to refund my money and is back at the drawing board - he is gonna contact me when the new prototype is finished.
Some changes has happend since I posted this - that friday I mentioned that I was suppose to mount this spoiler, someone decided to turn my world upside down:
His name is Axle Slade and he came into the world on friday Oct19 at 9:04pm weighing in at 7 lbs 8 oz! Future Mopar member, can't wait to finish the car and take him for a rip in the runner like my dad did when I was his age!
Found some pics of at the bodyshop before I got her painted:
I probably spent over 10-20 hours with a pic cleaning these by hand after I acid dipped them to get the 40 year old paint/rust off.
and then painted them on the one side that you see when the door is open
And I am now finally finished with the sound deadner in my car. It took almost a full 3 rolls of B-Quiet. For further reference it took:
1 roll did the roof, doors, and inner fenders to the trunk on the car
1 roll did the firewall to the rear passenger seats flooring
last roll did the trunk and any little place I missed with some spare left over!
I added close to 90lbs to my car but its all good weight?
I Think it took about 30 hrs to do the installation...
I also dropped the whole front suspension outta the car, on my next days off I'll be welding them up and getting them powdercoated! stay tuned!
