This sharp 1968 Plymouth Road Runner, now with its new owners in Kentucky, features a period-correct 426 Hemi 2x4 V8 under the hood. Fully restored and rebuilt in 2015, this muscle car delivers blistering speed and tire-shredding performance. It includes a street-friendly 3.54 rear axle, an easy-shifting A833 4-speed manual transmission, MSD ignition, and an upgraded 4-wheel disc brake system.
About the Plymouth Road Runner
Introduced in 1968, the Plymouth Road Runner was built for performance without unnecessary frills, keeping costs and weight down. Designed on the Belvedere platform, it quickly became popular for its durability and power, making it a favorite among street racers and even Moon Shiners. Plymouth originally expected to sell 20,000 units in its first year, but demand more than doubled that figure. Today, the Road Runner remains a highly sought-after classic among MOPAR collectors and muscle car enthusiasts.
