Vehicle Description
Up for sale in our Fort Lauderdale Showroom is a desirable 1974
Plymouth Satellite Tribute Road Runner. The Road Runner was a
performance based car produced by Plymouth from 1968 to 1980. Its
initial concept was to take the muscle car back to its basic form,
a cheap car with a big motor and a quarter mile time under seconds.
Which by the way the Road Runner came through on all accounts.
Consequently the Road Runner outsold the heavily optioned, more
expensive GTX , the back to basics idea worked. Plymouth did pay
Warner Bros. $50,000 for permission to use the name and likeness of
their popular cartoon character Road Runner, and even shelled out
$10,000 to develop the "beep beep" horn. One walk around this Road
Runner and you will quickly appreciate the condition and the care
that went into this 1974 Road Runner classic muscle car. This '74
Plymouth Satellite tribute Road Runner has a very good Plum Crazy
Purple paint job to catch the onlookers eyes. A new body style
arrived with the 1971-74 model. The new design showed more curves
and it looked a bit more like the �Cudas and Challengers. The start
of 1971 was considered the beginning of the end for muscle cars.
Stricter emission standards were already starting to take effect.
And as the years went on it only became worse. This 1974 Plymouth
has a strong 340 engine that came in Roadrunner those years. Backed
behind that 340 engine is a 3 speed automatic transmission moving
you around the street. When you have the sun gleaming off of the
smooth, clean Plum Crazy Purple and your are cruising there comes a
time to stop and that is no problem on this Plymouth. Because this
Roadrunner tribute has 4 wheel slotted disc brake, stopping will
not be a problem. This 1974 Plymouth Roadrunner Tribute has some
very nice custom chrome wheels with tires that have excellent
tread. For more information on this 1974 Plymouth Satellite Road
