Never heard of a Roadrunner???
it actually annoys me too when MOPAR guys themselves confuse a road runner with a GTX .....really ...how does that happen ....the GTX has the extra chrome ...the grille is different (68-70) the tail panel is different, those years GTX had a huge emblem on the side says GTX lol
In fact, it had "GTX" on all four sides. lol
I've had both a GTX and a RR. I purchased a new 1968 Hemi Roadrunner in the Summer of 1968, Yellow, black interior, 833/ dana. radio delete, carpet delete.
...and in November of 1969, I purchase a 1969 GTX from a neighbor. The GTX has
1300 miles (that's one thousand, three hundred miles)on it. As I recall, the Hemi was an additional $720.00, but along withthe engine, you get HD everything, included a fully gusseted chassis and pan, and disc breaks. Merely swapping a hemi into a B body was NOT the same thing.
It was a 440/4bbl, with an 833, and a Dana. The guy purchased the car, new for his wife, and she absolutely hated it. He sold me the car for
$2470.00, which is what he still owed on it.
He replaced it with a 1970 Buick Apollo.
I love them both. In fact, as far as MoPar "B" bodies, go. I prefer the Plymouth B bodies over the Dodges.
btw, the
"Beep-Beep", was actually more like a
"Meep-Meep", and got even funnier if the battery was low... lol
...and I absolutely loved both of them.
