1970 Plymouth Road Runner - $176k in 2020

Last time on road was in 1974. 19,100 actual miles. First time offered for sale. Original V-code 440 BBL engine. Original 4-speed transmission. Original Dana 60 4.10 rear. Original stainless, chrome, and sheet metal. Rare factory TX9 color. Original glass with inspection sticker. Black deluxe bench seat. Original AM/FM radio. Power steering with cooler. Rare front disc brakes. VIN verified. One concours repaint in 2017.
Plymouth developed the Road Runner to market a lower priced, basic model to the upscale GTX. The Road Runner was based on the Chrysler B platform with the 440 Six Barrel an option for 1970. Sales of the 1970 Road Runner dropped by more than half over the previous year as insurance rates and unleaded gas killed the muscle car.
This top tier example made $176k at Mecum in 2020.
