Used 1969 Plymouth Road Runner

$69,995 Cruisin Classics is excited to present the newest arrival in our showroom - this rare 1969 Plymouth Road Runner Convertible. Over 80,000 Road Runners were made in 1969 but only 2,128 were convertibles, and this is a spectacular example of one of those cars. Not only is this Mopar in exceptionally nice condition, it retains its original engine, drivetrain, carburetor, intake, heads, and exhaust, and to top it all off - it comes with its original fender tag in place and a perfectly legible original Broadcast Sheet! We also have ownership history (through documents and receipts) since 1990 showing only 2 owners since, the most recent for 27 years. Let's take a deep dive into the details of this truly stunning Plymouth... This '69 Road Runner comes to us today dressed in a deep and glossy respray of its original color - B7 Jamaica Blue with slick wide black stripes and dual faux vents with red toppers on the hood. We don't know when it was repainted, but we do have a group of receipts from the most recent owner that show almost $12K spent on unspecified work at Born Again Auto Body in PA in 2007. It appears that the rear quarters and trunk pan have been replaced (which may have been part of that big bill) and they were done exceedingly well. The floorpans are original and in excellent condition. Up front ahead of the hood you'll find a horizontal grille flanked by dual round side by side headlights with a bright chrome bumper beneath. Not to be missed are the hood/fender mounted turn signals (L31) - a very cool option that adds to the classic look. Moving around to the side you'll notice 383 call-out badges on the sides of the faux hood vents, bright windshield trim, belt moldings (M31), a left hand remote racing mirror (G33), road runner door badging and colorful bird decal, and a power-operated black vinyl convertible top. The top in in fantastic condition, works flawlessly, and sports a clear glass back window. A tight-fitting Blue boot cover is included to cover the top when it's down (a nice extra!). Perfectly completing the side view are a set of chrome Cragar wheels (15X7 front, 15X8 rear) with direct-fit acorn-style lugnuts, all wrapped in white letter BF Goodrich Radial T/A's. Around back are a road runner badge and bird decal on the decklid, another nice chrome bumper and dual chrome oval-shaped exhaust tips that emit a hearty rumble. Prepare to be impressed when the hood goes up - inside is everything you could hope for in both content and appearance! The engine bay is organized, immaculately clean, and dressed in slick blue body-color paint. At the center is the original numbers-matching 383ci V-8 (VIN stamped on the pad) and it's coated in fresh orange paint. Also painted in brilliant orange are the original heads, original intake, valve covers, and water pump. Sitting atop the intake is the original Carter AVS 4-barrel carburetor topped off with a correct black air cleaner with 383 Road Runner Engine decal. Other highlights include a black Chrysler radiator, power steering, points ignition, and the iconic purple beep-beep horn. Exhaust flows through the original HP manifolds (in excellent condition) and newer mufflers before exiting the chrome tips at the rear. Stopping power comes courtesy of 4-wheel drum brakes with a dual reservoir. The big V-8 is mated up to the original numbers-matching 727 Torqueflite 3-speed automatic transmission (VIN-stamped on side pad) that puts power to the pavement via the original 8 ¾ Chrysler rear axle with freeway-friendly 3.23 SureGrip gears. Swing open the drivers door to reveal a very attractive and comfortable 2-tone Blue interior. The door panels are in good condition and share the 2-tone look with bright accents and a drivers mirror toggle. The front armrests do appear slightly sun-faded, likely from top-down summer cruising. The two-tone blue front and rear bench seats are in exemplary condition with no visible demerits and they're as comfortable as they
