1969 Plymouth Road Runner – California Black Plate Classic
This is the real deal – a lifetime California Black Plate 1969 Plymouth Road Runner, an American muscle icon that has spent its entire life in the Golden State. This rust-free classic was purchased from the original owner's estate and has been impeccably maintained throughout its life. With solid floor pans, trunk pan, rockers, quarters, and window channels, this Road Runner has never needed or undergone any rust repair, making it one of the cleanest, most solid examples you’ll find.
Body and Interior Condition: The body on this Road Runner is exceptionally straight and solid, true to its rust-free California heritage. The floor pans, trunk pan, rocker panels, and window channels are completely solid and original. There’s no rust anywhere, which is almost unheard of in a car of this age. The quarter panels are in excellent shape, and all trim pieces are present and in great condition. The factory-correct black interior is clean, with a crack-free dash, and newer carpet has been installed. The only interior work needed is some reupholstery on the front seat bottoms – otherwise, the interior is in superb condition for its age.
Performance and Powertrain: The original owner replaced the factory 383 with a powerful ATK 440 engine that delivers exhilarating performance. This monster of an engine is built to run hard and fast, equipped with the following performance upgrades:
This 440-equipped Road Runner runs incredibly strong and sounds ferocious, just as you’d expect from a high-performance muscle car. Whether you're looking for something to take to the strip or enjoy on the street, this car offers the perfect balance of power and drivability.
Original Parts Available: While the 440 engine gives this Road Runner its extra muscle, the factory-correct 383 engine, hood, wheels, and third member can be made available to the right buyer, making it possible to restore this car to its original factory configuration if desired. Having these original parts on hand is a huge bonus for collectors and enthusiasts alike, adding to the car's long-term value.
Why This Road Runner Stands Out: This 1969 Plymouth Road Runner offers the best of both worlds: the classic muscle car appeal with a rust-free California history, combined with the added power of a professionally upgraded 440 engine. It’s incredibly rare to find a lifetime California car in this condition, especially with all the original parts still available. The car is solid, the interior is mostly clean, and it runs and sounds like a true muscle car should – loud, fast, and strong.
Key Highlights:
Price: $49,995 – A steal for a rare, rust-free, lifetime California Road Runner with its original parts included!
