Big block 440 Mopar classic vintage
1973 Plymouth Road Runner Description
This this 1973 Plymouth Road Runner is already a rare sight on the classic car scene, but you're going to love it for much more than just rarity. After all, this has a standout custom paint package, a custom/comfy interior, and a performance-built 440 V8 under the hood.
This coupe is out to be memorable from the first moment you lay eyes on it. A bold green and a glossy black make a lasting impression all on their own, but the way these two are expertly intermingle is truly masterful. The first thing you'll notice is the bold black streaks that run up the length of the car like a bull's horns. It's even outlined in sliver so you get a nice dividing line that ends in razor-sharp tips. The black also highlights some of the best sporty pieces on this car, like the new front lip spoilers, full-width rear spoiler, and twin-scoop hood. The green is used on places like the bumpers and sport mirrors to really give this classic a more modern and uniform look. Plus, there's added shine and intimidation from the dual exhaust tips, hood pins, and Cragar-style polished wheels.
The interior is done for both comfort and performance. You understand both of these points immediately when you sit down in the driver's button-top velour bucket seat. The center console angles towards you, because the driver is king in this Road Runner. There's a nice upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo w/aux input, but your favorite upgrades will be the ones that are all about performance. You get a grippy Grant GT sports steering wheel, a full auxiliary readout package, and a large AutoMeter Autogage tach.
There's nothing better than lifting the hood and seeing it all filled with an ultra-tidy presentation of Mopar big block muscle. This is the mighty 440 cubic-inch V8. And while the displacement is enough to make you weak in the knees, this also has terrific performance upgrades like a Holley four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, and long tube headers that help make a terrific big block rumble out of the dual exhaust. It even has the right supporting components like fabricated valve covers, an electric choke, tidy wires, an Optima battery, and an aluminum radiator w/electric fan. It's a strong-running motor, and the 727 TorqueFlite three-speed automatic is a stout unit with a shift kit, so it can effectively handle the big power smoothly. This feeds a rear end that has the right upgrades like a sway bar and large traction bars. Plus, you have power steering and power brakes w/discs up front to round-out a package that offers good control.
This is a Mopar with a ton of distinction and power. That's why you know you need to take it home right now. Call today!!!
