1972 Plymouth Satellite - Road Runner Tribute
1972 Plymouth Road Runner "Tribute" Description
For sale here is my 1972 Plymouth Road Runner Tribute with a big block 400 4 barrel V8. This is not a factory built Road Runner.This car was factorybuilt as a 1972 Plymouth Satellite Sebring, it came with many great options. It's a good solid car and has hadmany of the options that were specific to the Road Runner added to it totransform it into an eye-catchingcruiser and weekend show car. I don't think there's another one like it anywhere and that's why I built it like this. It still looks like the iconic Road Runner of the 70's but has some modern touches to give it that one-of-a-kind look and make it stand out from the pack.
Originally a small block 318 car,it nowhas the big block 400 with 4 barrel and a heavy duty 727 automatic transmission. The car runs good, starts right up and sounds awesome. Electronic ignition and anelectric fuel pump help to make sure she starts quick and runs like a new car.
Factory power steering and factory power brakes with front disc and all of that is new. Originally an AC car, it has all the dash elements necessary for functional AC but I did not install the compressor or lines necessary to make the AC work when the engine swap was performed. It needs a small amount of electrical work to get everything perfect but for the most part, it is ready to go.
It has a new, custom dual exhaust system. The black interior is all new but professionally done in an original style and it looks great. The paint job is fresh and of quality, PPG paints in Chrysler White, done in base coat / clear coat and it has the 72 Road Runner stripes done in reflective black. It has the 17" American Racing Torque Thrust 2 wheels in staggered sizes front to back with BFG Z rated tires which gives it a nice stance and improves the handling of this musclecar.
All of the windows roll up and down perfectly. All of the weather stripping on the car is new.The doors shut very nicely and do not drag. All of the body panels line up very very nicely and the gaps are all even. The glass was all installed by Safelite and the windshield is brand new. Everything is there, it is fully complete even down to the AM radio in the dash.
This is a nice car and I'm not asking a fortune for it. It is at a point where the new owner can choose to take it to another level with customization or just do a few finishing touches and drive it as I intended when I built the car... A fun weekend cruiser and small show car.
