Vehicle Description
1969 Plymouth Road Runner A12 Tribute
So Plymouth created the Road Runner in 1968 to address the entry
level muscle car market, we all know that. However, when they
decided to take the legendary 440 with a 6 Barrel carb
configuration and plant those 390 horses under the hood of the
lighter weight intro version of Chrysler muscle a whole new playing
field opened up. Plymouth had created a high performance
inexpensive street stormer that not only stimulated the physical
aspect of a muscle car beyond norms of the day. Here is a full
rotisserie restored tribute to that the days of torque, straight
line acceleration, and pre smog. This one has all the right stuff,
is in a great color, and runs great. It looks as good underneath as
on top and the topside is fabulous. The original fender tag is in
place and it codes out to be pretty true to original. Unfortunately
we have not gotten a broadcast sheet with this one butt it does
have it's original fender tag. It is powered by a 440 6 barrel V8
and 727 Torqueflite transmission along with a Dana 60 rear end,
this one is a riot to drive. The Bright Red paint with black roof
and hood treatment, that includes "A12 Air Grabber Intake" look
fabulous on this fabulous Road Runner and it is easy to drive with
power steering
