1970 Plymouth Road Runner By Scott
This Is My Mopar:
I am thrilled just to get a reply from you. Well here's the scoop on the RR. I just bought the car 2 months ago. I redid the interior and sandblasted and painted items under the hood today. As for specs on the car.... the engine has been totally rebuilt. It has a 383 with a crane cam ( I have the sheet, but do not know how to make sense of the duration and lift numbers, so i won't embarass myself with a feeble attempt ), forged pistons with a 10.5:1 compression ratio. It also has a Vertex Magneto and a Holley 650 double pumper. Has the standard Hurst 4 speed tranny with a 410 SureGrip, 8 3/4 rear. The car is Lime Green. Other improvements include rebuilt tranny, gearbox, suspension including an extra leaf with the new springs and shocks. Stainless truflow exhaust ( sounds like a real hot rod ), new gas tank,new seat covers front and back, as well as carpet. It runs beautiful and I am thrilled, after 20 years of waiting, to rumble down the country roads of North carolina in the beautiful beast. I am in need of a beep beep horn if anyone has one around. Year One recently discontinued theirs and another vender is way overpriced so.......Thanks for posting my car. As soon as I get good color shots I will send along also.
