This 1968 Plymouth Road Runner in a very attractive shade called Buffed Silver, is a living legend from the very first year of the iconic muscle car. As one of the earliest examples of Plymouth's budget-friendly performance machine, it carries the torch that would ignite a new era of accessible power. The sophisticated dark side comes courtesy of the ultra-cool blackout Performance hood, vinyl roof, rocker stripes, and rear Plymouth billboard - all working in harmony to create an aura of understated aggression. And who could forget the ""Beep! Beep!"" Roadrunner cartoon horn, a playful touch that's fully functional on this classic ride. Wheels are adorned with beauty rings that shine against the tires, size 245/60R15 in front and 275/60R15 at the rear, bridging the gap between heritage and road presence.
The black vinyl interior is a time capsule of '60s cool, restored to its original glory circa 2002. Slide into the vinyl bench seat and grip the column shifter, feeling the nostalgia wash over you. The clean dashboard, devoid of a radio, keeps the focus purely on the thrill of the drive. Gaze upon the updated rally gauge cluster, a subtle hint at the power that lies beneath. With power steering at your fingertips, navigating this classic is a breeze.
Turn the key and the rebuilt 383 c.i. V8 engine springs to life, demonstrating why this icon has left a lasting imprint on the muscle car landscape. With about 400 miles clocked since its rebuild, it integrates an Edelbrock intake and carburetor with a Torqueflite A727 3-speed automatic transmission to ensure responsive handling and exhilarating acceleration. The chassis, supported by torsion bar suspension in the front and leaf springs with shocks in the rear, ensures each ride is as stable as it is stirring. With drums at both ends, the braking system is straightforward, echoing the simplicity and reliability of its era.
