The 1969 Plymouth Roadrunner....
Built on the B-Body platform, the Plymouth Road Runner was meant to be a no-frills, high thrills muscle car where the biggest thrill was what lurked under the hood.
Available in three body styles: a hardtop, pillared coupe, and convertible. The convertible model helped it become Motor Trends’ car of the year in 1969.
Engine options included the standard 383 and optional 426 Hemi with the mid-year introduction of the 440 A12 Six Pack performance option.
A Carter four-barrel carburetor was standard on the 383, while the 440 leveled up to three Holley two-barrel carburetors. The mighty 426 Hemi inhaled cold air through two Carter AFB four-barrel carburetors.
Two transmission options backed up to each of three engine offerings, including an A-727 Torqueflite 3-speed automatic and an A-833 4-speed manual.
