I stopped by one of our local Friday night car get-togethers at the sonic close to my house and saw this pretty cool 68 Roadrunner. The owner of the car came over and explain what he had done was take a 1968 Roadrunner and put it on a 2017 Challenger Scat pack chassis. The Challenger was wrecked and he picked it up pretty cheap. At first I thought he just used the engine and drive train, but then he opened the door end it had to complete challenger interior dash seats consul everything. The only thing I didn’t like about it was the Challenger wheels which to me looked out of place on the Roadrunner.

Very cool 'Runner!! I agree about the wheels, but he prolly had to use them because of the big brakes on the Challenger chassis. I don't know that, but it could be.

It's amazing that the dash fit. You wouldn't think those two cars were that close to the same dimensions.

Lots of work right there. I like the idea, just dont know if I like that one. Not sitting as low as I would like to see. From the pictures, he did great work. Would have gotten rid of the bumblebee bee on the seats and stitched a runner there. He spent that much on the car, what's a few more hundred. Would have been a neat touch.
