Looks to be all there and just real dirty.  You will love that car not only because it is family but because you have put it back in good order.  There are a lot of restoration parts available for that car - it is a very popular car to rebuild.

Join the club when you feel like it and take it to a national meet - there are always a few RoadRunners at the meets.

Hi, Phil, and welcome to the forum.  Great photos!  Nothing like a nice RoadRunner to work on and
get back on the road.  Good luck with it.  If you need any help or advice, I am sure that there is
someone on this forum with the information.  There is nothing better that finding/receiving an
"old car" that has been in your family.  I "took over the care of" an old Plymouth that was bought
by my great aunt (grandmother's sister), so I know how special this type of car is to you.

That?s Great !!!

And even better that you could acquire a car that has so much family history.

Good luck with the restoration the car looks pretty good.? It will be nice to get her back on the road again.

Hi Everybody! My name is Phil and I'm a MOPARolic.

My grandfather bought a 1968 Plymouth roadrunner brand new in 68. The car was handed down to my father, then my older brother, then to me. We sold the car 11 years ago. Well a couple of weeks ago I get a call from a friend from my hometown saying they think they know where the car is. So to make a long story shorter, I found it and bought that sucker back. I pick the car up this Sun, and will be bringing it back to the same garage that it was originally brought home to in 1968. (I live in my grandparents old house!) The car is in alot worse shape, but with some time and money I will have her back up and running soon...

Anyway, here are some pictures I took the first time I laid eyes on her in 11 years....
