I know its not a camaro or super car, but still and exiting barn find no the less. I helped a friend of mine extricate this 69 Road Runner out of a barn this last weekend. Last plate and window sticker were 1976. The old timer said it stopped running then and just parked it in his barn. 383 ,air and power windows with a white interior!

Cool car. Would look really good with my orange on white 69 Camaro. If your friend is interested in selling it, I'd be real interested in buying it.

UPDATE&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;

The back seat came out, when it was turned over , there it was! The braoadcast sheet!It was carefully removed and upon inspection the VIN number was off by 12 cars, what a disappointment.As the carpet was gradually removed, reminants of ANOTHER sheet! WOW! but was also for a car with a very close VIN.What a disappointment.Once the rug was removed completly, there it was.....Broadcast sheet #3!This one did match the car!Go figure! If that car could talk. I wish I found this car!

So, are any of the other broadcast sheets for something special? Maybe you found an extra one for a car that someone else has been trying to document. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

The other broadcast sheets are for for similarly equiped vehicles.

Can't these be sent to Galen....? I've heard that he reunites build sheets with cars...or am I mistaken?

Bruce - Galen indeed has quite a collection of these types of buildsheets. Guess what? The Bowtie line guys weren't the only guys dropping wrong buildsheets in their cars. Click below for info http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

Lost Broadcast Sheets (http://www.gvgovier.com/lost_broadcast_sheets.htm)

On a similar note. Galen has quite a collection of dealership paperwork that has been provided to him over the years. Galen just received all of the dealership paperwork from Frederick Dodge (formerly of Canfield, OH) where I grew up. Not known as a performance dealership - but someday would like to own a Frederick Dodge muscle mopar! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif

Thanks Sam...I knew I wasn't going crazy. I think it was you who told me about the service that Galen offers! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

Love it...and the clean-up w/ orig. patina gets my vote too! .
Can't wait to see some detail pics underhood w/ air-cleaner and fender tag! .
Cool bumperettes and steelies...just needs the chrome lug nuts! .

Reminds me of the night years ago that my buddy and I first brought his rusty Hemi '69 'Runner home on a trailer. .
We had the thing fired up and running in the driveway w/ straight headers...the windows in the house were rattlin' and the neighbours were sticking their heads out the doors to see what was up. . He didn't want to drive it as there was no brakes, but it was a stick (so who needs brakes right?) and I got to be the lucky one! .
I've still never shaken the feeling of power (and terror?) I had behind the wheel of that old brake-less POS w/ pop riveted floors vibrating and my first experience driving a HEMI!!! .
