CAR DESCRIPTION FROM SELLER | |
---|---|
For sale is a 1969 Plymouth Roadrunner. Clean title in hand. I have owned the car for the past 4 years. I moved to Alabama two years ago and am now set to PCS again. Heading to Alaska so my options are to store the car for 3 years or sell it. I am ok with storing it but would prefer that someone gets to enjoy it. I have another car that is finally being restored after owning it for over a decade, so I wouldn't hate being able to bank roll that car with this one.THE GOOD: This car has a 383 with a 4-speed manual transmission. 4 wheel disc brakes with an electric vacuum assisted power brake booster. The fuel system has been upgraded with a Holley Stealth EFI setup and all EFI appropriate parts, including new fuel tank, in tank pump, and lines that can handle the ethanol content of modern gas (but NOT rated for e85). Aftermarket stereo and 17" wheels and tires. AC works and blows cold. Other than the dash pad and steering wheel horn button, the rest of the interior is fairly new in appearance.THE BAD: There are a few rust spots as shown in the pictures. There are a few other scratches and imperfections in the paint. The car was restored at some point by a previous owner but the overall quality of the work was a little lacking. The steering is manual. I actually enjoyed that (anytime outside of parking lots) but it does take a lot of effort at low speed. Anyone that has owned old mopars knows how bad the electrical is - this car is no different. The alternator has been seriously upgraded and the ammeter has been bypassed but this was a more functional fix than a pretty one. The gauges no longer work due to the fix, but the aftermarket gauges and the Holley EFI Dash contain just about all of the information you need anyways. New wiring for the whole car was purchased and should absolutely be installed before any serious driving. Dash pad should also be replaced.THE UGLY: The car has sat for the past two years. About a month after getting here, the O2 sensor for the Holley EFI went bad. It took a month for the part to arrive. While under the car fixing the sensor, I noticed that the transmission was leaking. It took another month for that part to arrive. While fixing the transmission, I figured it was as good a time as any to start rewiring the car. Long story short, small fixes, tweaks, good ideas, and life got in the way and the car has sat since I first had a bad O2 sensor. The O2 and transmission are fixed and I have a brand new american autowire wiring kit for the whole car, but that is not installed (and original wiring has not been pulled out).The car will need the rest of the gas siphoned out, new gas, and a battery and it should fire up. I have tried to periodically rotate the tires so that they don't flat spot, but they ultimately might need to be replaced as well. CAR WILL BE SOLD AS IS.I have a few more photos available and will take any other shots you may want. I also have video of it running, which I can send upon request. The one driving shot was when I drove from Atlanta to Fort Rucker. Great drive with the windows down and radio off and she made the whole trip without any drama. |
