    Man.....definitely rob it for all the factory A/C parts!! The majority of Plymouth roadrunners back in 69 were ordered WITHOUT air conditioning. And many times most restoration candidate cars these days are missing all those parts anyway! 🤷‍♀️ The fact that the condenser is still there..... Along with the HVAC box underneath the dash and all the associated wiring, brackets, and cables that go with it is a good thing! Definitely pull all of that stuff off and keep it! Especially if you ever want to convert a non-ac roadrunner into one with air conditioning! Especially here in the south! Lol!!!!

    Great content, Its a shame this 69 Plymouth is in such bad shape, it could of been a candidate to restore but you would pretty much have to replace "almost" everything on this car, sending you to the poor house in the process... makes a nice lawn ornament though, and you can get some decent parts for your trouble.

      Basically that was all I know. The brother in law just was hell on her. She took a beating and kept on getting it. Sat in the woods for 30 plus years. It was sold at least 5 different times and nobody would actually get it. I think it was just so bad people just kept stealing parts off it. Charlie the owner I bought it from still has the original engine and trans, but he won’t sell it to me…We are going back in a few weeks to grab the 65 Fury sport out of there.
