1969 Plymouth Roadrunner 112 PHOTOS INCLUDING MANY OF UNDERCARRIAGE
The Plymouth Road Runner was named Motor Trend Car of the Year for
1969 Plymouth paid $50,000 to Warner Bros.-Seven Arts to use the
Road Runner name and likeness from their Wile E. Coyote and the
Road Runner cartoons (as well as a "beep, beep" horn, which
Plymouth paid $10,000 to develop) All Roadrunners were 383 cu in
(6.3 L) engine cars, except for ten which were equipped with a 426
cu in (7.0 L) Hemi. The "ROAD RUNNER" 383 big block was rated at
335 bhp (340 PS; 250 kW) at 5200 rpm and 425 lb�ft (576 N�m) at
3400 rpm of torque. An Air Grabber option (N96 code) was introduced
this year; it consisted of a fiberglass air duct assembly bolted to
the underside of the hood that connected to twin rectangular
upward-facing vents in the hood with rallye red vent screens. The
fiberglass hood box had an "Air Grabber" sticker on the front. When
the hood was closed, a rubber seal fitted over the large-oval
unsilenced air cleaner. A decal with Wile E. Coyote saying "Coyote
Duster" was on the air cleaner lid. The assembly ducted air
directly into the engine. The vents in the hood could be opened and
closed via a lever under the dashboard labeled "Carb Air." The Road
Runner added a convertible option for 1969. OUR VEHICLE This is one
