Bill is going from bumper to bumper over his 1968 Road Runner and taking care the things that need attention.
This time he’s looking at the floors, seats and rear side panels as well as smoothing out the quarter windows regulators.
Consider using the proper tools when you remove upholstery panels.
These tool are available at many auto parts stores or on-line.
Here Bill is giving us a quick look at the issues with the seats and how to transport them safely.
Thanks for view the blog!! Bill will be back soon and maybe after I get these 600 7th and 8th Graders’s papers graded I’ll get some time for #ProjectSportsRoof.

Welcome back to the #ProjectBeepBeep. We are still following Bill’s progress on the front disc brake conversion for his 68 Plymouth Road Runner.
Did I say this is the final chapter? Well….
Sometimes during a project you just can’t afford the time to do a video, especially when you have a friend coming by to help out. Lets have Bill tell you how it all ended:
“I had to call in an expert; fellow I work with is a Mechanical Engineer and used to work as a Porsche/BMW mechanic before and during college. Together we got the wheels on the ground in about two hours. He recommended a last-ditch effort with the brake lines; we tightened all lines until the tube nuts were deformed. Also found an off center flare on one of the brake lines and he had a machine that fabricated the new line. Difficult to bleed; we bled the system 11 times (I counted) and went through lots of brake fluid (almost two quarts).
Took BeepBeep to the MOPAR show at Larry Miller Dodge almost immediately after getting the wheels on the ground! Car stops on a dime and gives you nine cents change. Don’t miss power assist at all. This car will STOP!
Check it out:
I need an alignment next, but otherwise I really have no other problems to report. Everything working; oil PSI is 35 at idle, 55 at running down the road, and temp was a tick under 195F all day long.
Time to enjoy this ride!”
Bill, thanks for the all the video and the tips you given the reader!
Looking forward to your next ‘little’ project on BeepBeep.

Bill is trying to finish up this the disc brake conversion and as things happen when you are dealing with our mechanical best friends, when you think its ready to go, things go south.
Look for the discussion on Dot 3 and Dot 5 brake fluid and tips for creating your own brake bleeding system. And keep an eye out for DIY master cylinder bench bleeding tubes.
All excellent to note!! Oh…and dig out that jack!!!
