Sorry guys!  I corrected the pictures and they should be visable to all.

Rob, the calipers were painted green to coinside with the body color.  There are paints available to paint your calipers any color.

I have been thinking about my Roadrunner lately and I have decided on making a change.  I am changing the induction system from a single 4 barrel carb and manifold to a 6 barrel induction system.  With a careful removal of the 4 barrel intake, carb and air cleaner, I smoothed out the engine top, and painted the 6 barrel carbs, intake manifold and air cleaner.  Now for some assembly.

More Roadrunner to come...

Some progress on the 71 Roadrunner.  I messed up the air cleaner paint and so I repainted it.  The decal I will be using and a closeup of the engine compartment.

More Roadrunner to come...

Other than a coat of clear over the air cleaner, the Roadrunner 440+6 is now complete!  And, the hood even closes completely, too!
