1969 Plymouth Road Runner Hardtop 4-Speed

This 1969 Plymouth Road Runner hardtop was initially delivered to Tom Price Chrysler Plymouth of Spokane, Washington and is powered by a 383ci V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission. The car is finished in bronze over tan upholstery, and additional equipment includes an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, a PerTronix ignition system, Magnum 500–style 15″ wheels, four-wheel drum brakes, bench seats, a fold-down center armrest, Hastings auxiliary gauges, and a push-button AM radio. The car is said to have undergone a refurbishment completed in 2010 under prior ownership in Manitoba, Canada, and it was returned to the United States in 2014 before being acquired by the seller in late 2021. This Road Runner is now offered with a reproduction window sticker, paperwork from Galen’s Registry, manufacturer’s literature, a removed carburetor and distributor, and transferable New York registration in the seller’s name.

The car left the factory finished in Saddle Bronze Metallic (T7) and is said to have been refinished as part of the aforementioned refurbishment completed in 2010. Features include a dual-exit exhaust system, quad headlights, 383 and Road Runner badging, chrome bumpers, and chrome trim on the window surrounds, wheel arches, and grille.

Magnum 500–style 15″ steel wheels wear 215/70 BFGoodrich Silvertown Radial red-line tires. A matching spare wheel and tire, jack, and tire iron are stored in the trunk. Braking is handled by unassisted four-wheel drums.

The front and rear bench seats are upholstered in two-tone tan vinyl and are complemented by a color-coordinated dashboard, door panels, headliner, and carpeting. Equipment includes a fold-down center armrest, lap belts for five occupants, a woodgrain-style shift knob, bright doorsill guards, reproduction Road Runner–branded rubber floor mats, a heater, a dome light, and a Chrysler Solid State push-button AM radio.

The three-spoke steering wheel is equipped with a Road Runner “Beep Beep” horn button and fronts a 120-mph speedometer along with gauges for alternator status, fuel level, and coolant temperature. A trio of Hastings gauges mounted beneath the dashboard displays oil pressure, coolant temperature, and voltage. The five-digit odometer shows 68k miles, approximately 1k of which have been added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.

The 383ci V8 is equipped with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, a PerTronix electronic ignition, and a disguised PerTronix coil along with a chrome air-cleaner cover, oil-filler cap, and thermostat housing. The oil was changed in May 2023.

The engine stamping is shown above. Additional stampings and casting numbers are pictured in the gallery below.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission.

The fender tag indicates that the vehicle is a 1969 Road Runner hardtop (RM23) equipped with a 383ci V8 featuring a four-barrel carburetor (E63) along with a four-speed manual transmission (D21). The tag also reveals that the car was built on January 3 (103) and was originally finished in Saddle Bronze Metallic (T7) over a bench-seat interior with tan vinyl upholstery (H2T).

Paperwork from Galen’s Registry in May 2014 indicates that this car was the only example documented with its specific combination of options and colors.

The car does not have a title, as it is registered in a state that does not issue titles for vehicles of its age. It is being sold on its New York registration.
