1969 Plymouth Road Runner

 

History

 

The Plymouth Road Runner was a performance car built by the Plymouth division of the Chrysler Corporation in the United States between 1968 and 1980. In 1968, the first muscle cars were moving away from their roots as relatively cheap, fast cars as they gained options. Although Plymouth already had a performance car in the GTX, designers decided to go back to the drawing board and reincarnate the original muscle car concept. Plymouth wanted a car able to run 14-second times in the quarter mile and sell for less than $3000. Both goals were met, and the low-cost muscle car hit the street.

 

The 1969 model kept the same basic look as the 1968 but with some slight changes such as tail lights and grille, side marker lights, optional bucket seats, and new Road Runner decals. In 1969 the 383ci engine was the standard powerplant, and the 426ci Hemi was the only engine option available for the Road Runner until mid year production. The 440 cubic inch engine option with three Holley 2 barrel carburetors was added to the lineup at mid-year. The Plymouth Road Runner was named Motor Trend "Car of the Year" for 1969.
