The 1969 Plymouth Road Runner Convertible is an iconic piece of American muscle car history, known for its raw power and no-nonsense performance. Out of the 217,216 Road Runners built that year, only 2,218 were convertibles, and just 1,449 came equipped with an automatic transmission and power steering, making this example exceptionally rare. Originally sold at Fred Frederick Motor, Inc. in Laurel, MD (Dealer No. 39705) on April 24, 1969, this car has been meticulously preserved and restored over the years. The current owner purchased it in July 1991 at Chryslers at Carlisle, PA, with 71,712 miles. Recognizing its historical significance, they drove it approximately 2,000 miles over five years before deciding it deserved a full nut-and-bolt rotisserie restoration. Now, 34 years later, the odometer reads just 75,718 miles. Having undergone a concours-quality restoration, this Road Runner retains its all-original sheet metal, with every component either restored to factory specifications or replaced with original or NOS parts as needed. The result is a fully functional, numbers-matching muscle car that runs, drives, and sounds just as it did when new. Its exceptional condition and authenticity have earned it top honors, including National First Prize (1997) and Grand National Winner First Prize (2000) from the Antique Automobile Club of America with many other accolades in recent years. With just 2,000 additional miles in the last 32 years, this Road Runner remains a top-tier contender for Concours d’Elegance events and a true collector’s gem.
Exterior and Interior
Finished in Scorch Red (R6), this Road Runner commands attention with its striking Mopar muscle car presence. The Air Grabber hood (N96) adds both style and function, channeling cool air directly into the engine bay for added performance. The car sits on Rallye wheels wrapped in Goodyear F70-14 Red Stripe tires, maintaining an authentic period-correct look. Inside, the factory-original black bench seat (H2X) was upgraded by a previous owner to a more performance-oriented setup, featuring black bucket seats with headrests (H69) and a woodgrain-trimmed center console (C16). The dash includes a tachometer (N85), while the signature Road Runner “Beep Beep” horn adds a playful touch to its otherwise aggressive demeanor. The original AM radio (R11) remains intact, preserving the car’s late-’60s muscle car vibe.
Engine
Under the hood, this Road Runner is powered by its original, numbers-matching 383ci V8 (E63), rated at 335 horsepower. Equipped with a 4-barrel carburetor, Coyote Duster air cleaner, and the legendary Air Grabber induction system, it delivers the exhilarating performance that made the Road Runner a muscle car legend. Paired with the A727 TorqueFlite 3-speed automatic transmission (D32), this drivetrain provides a balance of brute force and smooth power delivery. During its restoration, every mechanical component was meticulously rebuilt and restored to factory specifications, ensuring it performs exactly as it did when it left the assembly line in April 1969. The exhaust note is unmistakably Mopar, producing the deep, throaty rumble that muscle car enthusiasts crave. The current owner, a former mechanic at a Chrysler Plymouth dealership in 1969, later transitioned into sales and ultimately became General Manager. With a passion for Mopar performance, they ensured that every detail of this restoration met factory standards, making this Road Runner one of the most authentic and well-preserved examples on the market.
By 1969, the Plymouth Road Runner had firmly established itself as one of the defining muscle cars of the era, combining big-block performance with a no-nonsense attitude that appealed to enthusiasts looking for speed over luxury. This 1969 Plymouth Road Runner embodies that philosophy with its legendary 383ci V8, desirable 4-speed manual transmission, and iconic Air Grabber induction system. Showing approximately 82,962 miles, this Ivy Green classic offers the unmistakable styling, raw driving experience, and factory performance pedigree that continue to make the Road Runner one of Mopar's most celebrated creations.
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.
The Plymouth Road Runner was introduced for buyers who wanted one thing above all else: performance. By stripping away unnecessary luxury features and focusing on big-block power, Plymouth created one of the most successful muscle cars of the era. This 1968 Plymouth Road Runner Hardtop Coupe shows 57,801 miles and is powered by the legendary 383ci Magnum V8, making it a textbook example of the formula that made the Road Runner a household name among enthusiasts. Finished in an eye-catching green exterior over a white vinyl interior, this first-year Road Runner embodies the no-nonsense attitude that helped establish the model as one of the most iconic muscle cars of the late 1960s.
This 1928 Plymouth Model Q Delivery Street Rod takes the distinctive commercial-body styling of an early Plymouth and gives it a decidedly custom street-rod personality. Showing 20,060 miles, it combines a 351ci Windsor V8 with a C6 3-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, delivering a traditional American hot-rod powertrain in a far less common body style than the usual coupe or roadster. Its blue and Merlot two-tone exterior, custom flame graphics, hand-painted rear quarter artwork, aftermarket air conditioning, and reupholstered interior make this a highly personalized build with plenty of visual character.
This 1972 Plymouth ’Cuda is a strong example of how the E-body platform can blend original pedigree with period-style muscle-car upgrades. Showing approximately 34,348 miles, this example is finished in Hugger Orange over a Black interior and carries the aggressive visual cues expected from a ’Cuda, including black side graphics, dual hood scoops, chrome bumpers, and Magnum 500-style wheels. The current owner reports that the car was originally equipped with a 340ci V8, while it is now powered by a larger 440ci V8 paired with a TorqueFlite 3-speed automatic. Performance-oriented upgrades include a 4-barrel carburetor, aftermarket aluminum intake manifold, MSD Digital 6AL ignition, aftermarket exhaust headers, and a dual exhaust system, giving this ’Cuda a considerably more muscular character than its original configuration.
This 1949 Plymouth Deluxe Club Coupe Restomod brings together the timeless styling of Plymouth’s post-war era with a carefully executed custom build focused on improved performance and drivability. With only 2,342 miles reported on the current build, this coupe showcases a traditional hot rod approach by retaining its classic body design while incorporating upgraded mechanical components and modern conveniences. The build is centered around a 318ci V8 featuring a 360 block, paired with a TorqueFlite 727 automatic transmission and upgraded with an Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor. Additional highlights include a 12V electrical conversion, custom purple paint, custom side graphics, aftermarket suspension, aftermarket wheels, and a personalized interior featuring updated gauges and steering wheel. This Plymouth Deluxe Club Coupe Restomod offers enthusiasts a unique opportunity to enjoy vintage Mopar character with a custom drivetrain and modernized features designed for enjoyable cruising.
