Automakers don’t do silly things anymore. Like, say, create a muscle car and name it after a beloved cartoon character. Or spend a significant sum of money to buy the naming rights from the intellectual property holder of said character. Or spend even more money after that to develop a horn that sounds just like that character’s jaunty cry. That’s what Plymouth did in the Sixties, with the Road Runner. They paid Warner Brothers US$50,000 to license their Road Runner character’s name and likeness. Then, they spent a further $10,000 to develop a horn that said “Beep Beep” just like the character did on screen. Was it a success? You bet! In fact, if not for the Malaise Era’s impending arrival and renewed focus on fuel economy and emissions, the Road Runner might have run a little bit longer than 1980. Today, we have a 1968 Plymouth Road Runner for sale from Jacksonville, Florida. With a nice 383ci V8, an automatic gearbox and an aftermarket head unit from Pioneer, this 42,228-mile machine is a fine catch for a savvy collector of American classics – or someone who wants to start a collection.
Exterior and Interior
This 1968 Plymouth Road Runner comes wearing Black Cherry Metallic paint and riding on a set of black-painted 5-spoke steel-styled wheels with Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires. Yes, the vehicle’s exterior color theme tends towards the darker end of the spectrum, but the car is definitely a head-turner, nevertheless. Its long and low profile, quad headlamps and Road Runner emblems all attract just the right amount and kind of attention. A blacked-out front grille and chrome bumpers are also present. The black and burgundy two-tone interior of this 1968 Plymouth Road Runner features a two-tone dash, a burgundy headliner and the aforementioned Pioneer aftermarket radio. The interior shows signs of its age, and is definitely unrestored, but isn’t run down either. You’ve also got a B&M floor shifter in chrome, and a custom 3-spoke steering wheel.
Engine
This 1968 Plymouth Road Runner uses a 383ci V8 with a 4-barrel carburetor from Edelbrock. It’s rear-wheel drive and uses a 3-speed automatic transmission. You’ve also got an Edelbrock chrome air cleaner, chrome valve covers and an aftermarket performance distributor in place.
Inspection
This 1974 Plymouth Road Runner Pro Street Supercharged is a purpose-built street-and-strip muscle car combining classic Mopar styling with serious drag racing hardware. Originally a 340ci V8, this Road Runner has been transformed with a professionally built and balanced big block powerplant featuring a Dyer’s Machine Blower Company supercharger system, dual Holley carburetors, and an estimated 800 horsepower output. Designed for high-performance driving, it pairs its supercharged engine with a reverse-pattern 727 TorqueFlite automatic transmission, Detroit Locker differential, 4-link rear suspension, and Mickey Thompson ET Street tires. Finished in a vibrant Lime Green exterior with a competition-inspired setup including a full roll cage, racing harnesses, and upgraded chassis components, this Pro Street build represents the classic era of American horsepower taken to an extreme level.
