Vehicle Description
DRUM ROLLL!! Presented here is a stunning example of the 1974
Plymouth Road Runner. The exterior of the vehicle is shown in the
original Aztec Gold with White Transverse Stripes and man does it
turn heads. In the interior, you will find an original White
leather interior completed with seat belts and correct Road Runner
floor mats. Originally from the sunny state of Arizona, this Runner
is as solid as they come.
Under the hood, you will find a 408 Stroker Engine that was built
off a period-correct 360 V8 engine. The engine was also upgraded
with the following: Edelbrock Aluminum Heads, an Edelbrock Intake
manifold, a New Correct wiring harness, an Aluminum radiator, a New
Serpentine Drive Belt System with Cooling fans, A new correct
wiring harness, a Performance Duel Exhaust, and Mopar Performance
Valve Covers. Power is routed through a factory automatic
transmission and a 3.91 Sure Grip Rear End.
Other comforts include factory power steering, an upgraded stereo
system with speakers, and an updated R134A Air Conditioning
system.
The 1973-74 models received completely new sheet metal and had more
conventional squared-up front-end styling and changes to the rear
that closely resembled the four-door models than the 71-72s. The
interior options included retaining power seats and windows and
offering plusher carpeting and seat covers, moving the car to a
slightly higher level of luxury. The restyling helped sales, which
were up 40% over the 1972 models. In testing, 1/4 mile times were
getting close to the 16s, top speeds had dropped to barely over 125
mph (201 km/h). The base engine for the 1973-74 models had dropped
down to Chrysler's workaday 318 CID V8 but was equipped with dual
exhausts which bumped the power up to 170 hp (127 kW). After 1972,
no 440 with four-speed manual cars were built. The code E68 400 cu
in 260 hp engine was the biggest Plymouth offered with the 4-speed,
which could also be had with the 340 (1973), and 360 (1974)
engines.
