This car was transformed into a Roadrunner, ut as most True MOPAR enthusiast can tell its a fake for a few reasons. one of them is the strobe stripes over the top of the car. the 71 stripes where used because they are cleaner, nd contain the roadrunner emblem and name within them so that they do not need to be down lower on the quarter panel. the second way to tell is that it also has the 71 grill in it. I liked the bars better than the 72 grill so i opted for this. it also allows for the Roadrunner emblem in the middle which everyone loves. The last thing is the VIN. a mopar nut can tell its not a true car by that. It is a fake and there's no trying to hide it. Its the same platform with lots of the same options as a roadrunner and id like to think it looks just as good if not better than some of the real deals. All of the stripes and roadrunner badges and emblems are in factory correct locations and alignments.
