Hubby has seen the light.

After Robin has moaned and groaned about my baby, even calling her the little yellow bananarama, here is his latest acquisition.

His official title is now Mr. Hypocrite ๐Ÿ˜‚

A white car with a white interior and column shift, everything he didnโ€™t want in a muscle car. Iโ€™m loving pointing out all of these facts, regularly. Just as he loves pointing out that his has less rust than mine etc. No rivalry at all in our house ๐Ÿ˜‚

1973 Plymouth Roadrunner survivor car with original paint that has "sunshine patina"

There is new terminology for everything now, it wuld have been called an original car with faded/flat paint before :D

He is pretty cheesed off today as it only arrived on Thursday and it is chucking it down so we can't shift them around giving him space to work on it.

He's got the trim rings but they are in the boot. The dealer put new tyres on but wanted to fit the rings in case they bounced off on the back of the trailor up to ours.

I didn't realise there were so few Roadrunners made in 73, his is one of 1991 with that engine and box. My 'cuda is 1 of 4576, but......it's still a 'cuda :D

:thumbright: Filling in the registration now, hopefully wont take too long to come back. Not that it matters as he has got some tweaking with lights and stuff to do first.
