Plymouth's Road Runner is an epic nameplate in the muscle car space, as it aims to bring muscle car thrills at a more wallet-friendly price point. Introduced in 1968, the nameplate would live until 1980. This particular 1974 Plymouth Road Runner is a fine second-generation example that has 78,000 miles on the clock and is the largest engine of the range. It's an excellent reminder of a bygone era where simplicity was key, and you didn't have digital distractions or computers to sanitize the driving experience.
Exterior and Interior
Red is a fetching color for a car called a Road Runner, and this 1974 Plymouth Road Runner carries off the speedy look with panache, aided by white decals along the sides and the iconic Road Runner cartoon character on the B-pillars. The muscular look is further aided by the twin headlamps, period wheels, and Firestone tall-profile tires. Chrome bumpers add some shine to the car's overall mien, and you'll also notice the twin exhaust pipes that allow the sizable V8 to clear its throat. When you enter the plaid interior of this 1974 Plymouth Road Runner, you'll instantly be transported to the Seventies. The checkered design, light colors, and fuzzy dice hanging from the rear-view mirror all add to this time machine trip. The car comes with a full gauge pack within its wood-trimmed dash, including a tachometer. There's also a push-button radio and "Beep Beep" Road Runner floor mats. Popping the trunk reveals a simple and clean space with a proper full-size spare tire waiting should you need it.
Engine
The 440 Magnum under the hood of this 1974 Plymouth Road Runner is the largest engine offered on the second generation. Displacing a mammoth 7.2L, the V8 can generate 280hp thanks to the Malaise Era being in full force. Driving the rear wheels through a 3-speed automatic transmission, this was one of the fastest cars you could get at the time. Front disc and rear drum brakes constitute stopping power, while the front suspension is an independent torsion bar set-up. At the rear, you'll find leaf springs, typical of many period cars. The current owner reports that the car has undergone a recent oil change and air filter maintenance.
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.
Collaborations can truly be a lovely thing when done right, and Plymouth did exactly that with its iconic Roadrunner back in the 60s. What was a reported payment of $50,000 for name rights and a further $10,000 to develop the iconic “beep beep” horn is now a cult classic in the muscle car collectors' circle. Present today is your chance to own a true American icon that takes shape with this 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner. Hailing from Saint Mary’s, Ohio and with just 34,793 miles on its clock, this quirky classic can be yours to “beep beep” your way into the weekend.
Plymouth may no longer be around, but this storied American auto brand that was under Chrysler’s umbrella will perhaps be best remembered for their Road Runner muscle car. It may seem comical, naming a muscle car after a cartoon character – the Road Runner from the Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote cartoons by Warner Brothers. It might seem even more comical that Plymouth paid $50,000 to Warner Brothers to license the name for the car. And it might seem ridiculous that they spent an extra $10,000 merely to develop a horn that made the signature “Beep Beep” sound of the Road Runner from the cartoons. Remember, all this was in Sixties money, so you can do some calculations and see how much was actually spent by Plymouth to get this iconic muscle car as right as possible. Today, Road Runners are highly desirable, so we’re glad that one has come our way. This 1969 Plymouth Road Runner hails from Pittsburgh and has got a 383ci V8 engine under its hood. If you’d like to catch this bird, give us a call or shoot us a DM right now – don’t call the coyote who clearly needs some coaching.
