You're looking at the real-deal here. This 1969 Plymouth Road Runner is a true A12 car (M in the VIN's fifth digit, and on the fender tag.) Less than 1,500 examples came from the factory with the 440 Six Pack, and you get to take full control of this screamer thanks to the four-speed stick shift. Oh yeah, this is definitely the Mopar muscle machine to own! The A12 was all about speed, so it's on a diet of minimal... options to keep the weight down. But this hardtop coupe still manages to have plenty of flair. The white paint helps to showcase the mean black wheels and the matte black hood. And speaking of the hood, that lift-off lightweight unit is a piece we all love because it truly reminds everyone it's a race car for the streets. And that scoop on top that looks like it wants to inhale all other vehicles on the road as it passes them by. The 440 decals on that, combined with the Road Runner cartoon graphics, shows everyone that this serious equipment still has a playful side. There are no racing stripes or spoilers, because the design's muscular blocky lines and extra wide chrome bumpers do all the talking better than any add-on ever could. Open the door to one of the best interiors you will ever see on a Road Runner. Where most of these are dark-and-stark budget classics, this car features an interesting, original, and attractive two-tone green. The vinyl seats and door panels are looking great, and it keeps plenty of original elements, including the heater/defrost controls and the AM radio. There's plenty of room for family and friends, but it's the driver that's clearly the most important in this Plymouth. You slip into the bucket seat and grab the three-spoke wheel with the Road Runner horn cap. Beyond that is a full set of factory gauges and auxiliary readouts under the dash. This package includes a tach, which especially helpful because the Hurst performance shifter is a huge source of fun. But your favorite feature of this muscle machine is under the hood. It's a true 440 cubic-inch V8 with triple set of dual carbs (the legendary Six Pack.) This is a true M-code coupe, and that gives you true rarity. In fact, while this is not the original V8, it is a correct '69 440 block that was rebuilt using as many components as possible from the coupe's original factor motor. Fully detailed with Hemi Orange paint, a proper air cleaner, and gleaming valve covers, this engine looks like a physical manifestation of horsepower. And the long tube headers with the chambered dual exhaust means the world can hear your domination from the moment this V8 roars to life. So you'll love creating your own symphony of raw horsepower as the four-speed stick shift keeps you in total control of this monstrous package. If you cherish performance, few muscle cars are more pure in their pursuit of it than the A12 Mopars, and this awesome coupe delivers all the thrills you'd expect. Call now!!
