Absolutely STUNNING!
I think that there is only one 440 72 Gtx in the UK and one 440 71 Gtx here also?
Never been any 440 71/72 Roadrunners???
There was a 71 Roadrunner with the 426 hemi, on the South Coast!
Now owned by Craig Jackson, yep he of Barret-Jackson.
Sold back in the 80's for £25,000...

I prefer the '72 grille rather than the '71 like mine, looks a bit more classy 8-)

WoW that is stunning RoelB!
The 72 grille is AWESOME!!!
I assume that's the ex Tim Fennel RR-Gtx is saw back in the 80's?
Think it was a American pilots ride for pulling chicks in Cambridgeshire!

Apart from yours there is only one 71 Gtx down in Kent.
Sassy-Grass numbers matchin 440 auto.

Have a great Christmas from YaBa.

Before you ask, no I don't have her number!

I believe this is the Craig Jackson hemi Road-Runner from the South of England?
By coincidence I saw it outside Julius Stuere's Resto shop in LA with Craig driving it un-restored.
Julius was too busy to do the restoration at the time.
Craig then spent $120,000 having the resto done somewhere else.

Yes, originally a 383 car. A very nice solid Road Runner in a rare colour. Now in Finland I think?.
