This 1971 Plymouth Road Runner is a numbers-matching 383 V8 car.
And while that makes it a desirable classic, we know what really
attracted you is the unique and complete custom paint theme. After
all, there's nothing better than proper Mopar muscle and plenty of
extra flair to go with it.
This has a comprehensive two-tone style. Red and black are a
timelessly attractive color combo, but this one has the extra
attraction of a thoughtful application. The red paint has a deep
tone and a nice metallic element to really pop in the sunshine. The
black has a piano-like luster, and it coordinates with sporty
elements, like the hood accents, chin spoiler, upgraded 18-inch
wheels, and the full-width rear spoiler. The Road Runners of this
era had a distinctive strobe stripe package, and this one uses that
to inspire a true custom appearance. It's done in silver, and it
highlights the dividing point for the two-tone - which also happens
to highlight the best curves of the profile. It makes for quite a
striking coupe, even before you remember that 1971 ushered in a new
design for these B-body cars. The front bumper surrounds the
headlights for an intimidating style, and the rear one shows off
one of the last times it would be so well integrated to the design.
It makes this one a sleek custom machine that represents some of
the best of the era.
The black interior goes for a very vintage style presentation.
You'll appreciate it, right down to the details, like the AM radio
that's still there for display and the hallmark horn that still
goes "BEEP! BEEP!" The fundamentals look good on the seats,
carpeting, dash, and headliner. Even the trunk looks correct and
stock. Plus, this was one of the last few years you could roll down
all the windows to get the cool pillarless hardtop profile.
The classic style continues under the hood. There's a bold
presentation with the black inner walls and the correct Mopar
orange on the block radiating in the middle. This is the desirable
numbers-matching 383 cubic-inch V8. It has the right vintage look,
right down to the Road Runner air grabber w/callout. But It has
also been well-kept, including an updated Edelbrock four-barrel
carburetor to keep it running strong. This is the kind of coupe
that likes you to feel the road. But it also has the right
driver-oriented features, like a A727 Torqueflite three-speed
automatic transmission and modern sport tires afforded by the wheel
upgrade.
Complete with owner's manual, this Road Runner has an awesome
custom look and a proper classic Mopar heart. So you know you want
to get your hands on this coupe. Call now!
