Vehicle Description
Highly original 1969 Plymouth Road Runner that still has its
original big block V8. With this car's appeal and affordability it
means you might not have enough time to read the full description
before it's gone. There's an instant attraction to any Road Runner.
The blocky body has the unflinching authority of a police car. But
even within this industrial aggressiveness is room for some great
styling touches like the Chrysler Mag wheels and louvered hood. But
what really makes this coupe attractive is the color. It's the
car's original shade of Sienna Poly, and we think it perfectly
represents the 1960s era of powerful cars in earthtone colors. And
more than just standout for its hue, a Road Runner is always a
welcomed sight because these just always seem to have the right
attitude. The wide B-body design means the chrome bumpers look like
a huge grin at both ends on the car, and of course, it wouldn't be
a true Plymouth Road Runner without the Warner Brothers bird making
a speedy getaway on each door.
Open the door, and you'll find one of the best interiors you will
ever see on a Road Runner. Where most of these are dark-and-stark
budget classics, this car features a seriously attractive two-tone
tan. The vinyl seats and door panels are looking great and retain
all the cool original trim. In fact, this keeps plenty of original
elements, including the heater/defrost controls and the AM radio
(but you'll see a more modern AM/FM/CD stereo below the dash.) The
bench seats of this big coupe makes it a legitimate six-passenger
automobile, but it's the driver that's clearly the most important
in this Plymouth. You get the factory three-spoke wheel - and yes,
pressing the cartoon character triggers the signature Beep!
Beep!
You know exactly why this one gets your heart racing the moment you
lift the hood. The 383 cubic-inch V8 in the engine bay is the
original high performance motor to this Mopar. The whole
presentation looks fantastically original with the orange big
block, bold air cleaner with correct Road Runner on top, and even
the Road Runner horn mounted on the inner fender. But as you check
it all out, newer wires and an upgraded Edelbrock four-barrel
carburetor are hints to let you know this original V8 has always
received the proper care to be a great runner. That's why the V8
fires up nicely and gives a terrific muscular bark out of the
Flowmaster dual system. But beyond just power, this one is a fine
cruiser thanks to features like the A727 three-speed automatic
transmission, power steering, and front disc brakes. And not only
do the Kelly Charger tires provide good grip, but it's also a cool
nod to another Mopar performance legend.
