This is a real Road Runner that has been rotisserie restored to
show condition in, out, top and bottom. It has a high performance
motor that will pull the wrinkles out of your face. I personally
drove it. The car handled, stopped, functioned great.
EXTERIOR: It was taken down to a bare shell and put on a
rotisserie. It is laser beam straight. I don't see any signs of
damage or rust. The gaps are square. It has the lightweight hood
with fresh air scoop. According to the tag it's a real Sun Fire
yellow (I mistakenly called it Lemon Twist in our video). The paint
is like glass. The vinyl top looks new. Bumpers, tail lights, door
handles, remote mirror, turn signals on the fenders all have
brilliant chrome. The stainless trim all around the windows look
new. The grill is like new. The chrome 15 inch Cragar S/S wheels
sparkle like new. They have Mickey Thompson tires, bigger
street/strip radials in back. The door jambs are just as slick as
the car. Weatherstrips were replaced. New windshield.
INTERIOR: Inside the car is pristine looking. We have a picture of
it completely gutted and it was painted gloss yellow where you
can't even see. The cushions and upholstery have been replaced. New
headrests. Down on the floor is new carpet and embroidered mats. It
has reproduction seat belts front and back, some still have plastic
on them. The dash pad is new, to the whole instrument panel is
excellent. The knobs, original radio, heater controls and lense are
excellent. No cracks or cuts, it all fits right too. It does have
an aftermarket tach on the pillar and three matching gauges down
below. New glove box liner, the horn pad is new. Headliner, mirror
and visors are new, dome light works. The door panels, armrests,
handles and window cranks are new.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Bored and stroked 543 motor is making 500 hp at
the rear wheel which is well over 600 at the motor. It has Indy
aluminum heads and intake. Also has a big dual feed Holley
Dominator carb with premium fittings, fuel lines and a fuel
regulator. It also has an MSD ignition system with a Pro Billet
distributor. It has a set of coated headers,
aluminumpulleysandchromevalvecovers. It runs cool thanks to the
aluminum water pump, aluminum radiator, a clutch fan with a shroud.
The radiator and heater hoses are stainless. Features include power
steering and a new power brake system. All the components are
proper. New wiper motor, squirters are hooked up. The battery is
bolted down and has disconnect switch. Most importantly the "beep
beep" horn works! The engine bay is real clean metal painted gloss
yellow, the VIN number on the core support matches the car. It
looks like the fender tag is original.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It is all smooth clean metal painted gloss
yellow. There are no splices in the quarter panels, if they were
replaced it was with full panels at factory seams. It has a new mat
and weatherstrip. The spare rim is painted black and it has a BFG
tire that has never been used. The trunk light works.
UNDERSIDE: It was flipped on a rotisserie so the bottom could be
restored as good as the top. All the metal looks immaculate. They
welded in frame rails front to back, it looks like factory did it.
The whole bottom of the car is painted gloss yellow. The front end
was completely rebuilt- all new shocks, bushing, steering
components and it has a heavy duty sway bar. The rear suspension
was replaced- leaf springs, bushings and it now has air shocks. New
fuel system including the tank, straps, sending unit and electric
fuel pump. A fat dual exhaust system with Dynomax mufflers and
x-pipe sounds great. If you really want to shake the ground it has
electric stainless steel dumps. The brakes are all done, it has
disc in front. The e-brake cables are hooked up. Bottom of the
motor has an extra capacity of oil pan. Rebuilt 727 Torqueflite
automatic trans. The driveshaft was rebuilt. It has an 8 3/4 3.91
sure grip rear.
This car is exceptional. The cosmetic restoration looks amazing.
The mechanical rebuild was done right. It will cruise all day long,
it will shred the tires if you want it to.
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure
your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do
a walk around video that explains the car's condition in
detail.
**These cars are displayed in a museum. If interested in a
particular car make an appointment with a salesman to see that car.
Without an appointment there is an admission fee to enter the
showroom. If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded and you
will be given a 1 year membership.
