Braking is straight, and the car tracks in a straight line. There is some exhaust smoke noted when warmed up, likely due to rich carb jetting after the new carburetor installation, or a valve adjustment. Despite this, the engine runs well and pulls very strongly, with the Positraction rear end making for an enjoyable driving experience. Given its age, the original motor would benefit from freshening up.ConclusionThis 1969 Plymouth Road Runner RM21 Coupe is a true survivor and an excellent candidate for restoration, especially with the complete documentation and original components.
