Rare 1974 Plymouth Road Runner: No Less Than $7,500 For The Car, Were They Too Ambitious?

The good news is this Road Runner is a one-owner car, it has recently been pulled from a barn.
The asking price, on the other hand, could be a major shortcoming, as the seller expects to get no less than $7,500 for the car.

And without a doubt, this might be a little bit too ambitious, especially given its current condition.

While we’re not going to discuss the reasons that made the Road Runner such a fantastic model for muscle car enthusiasts, its focus on performance has long been something that set it apart from the rest of the crowd.

And the 1974 model followed the same recipe, all mixed with welcome styling improvements, to eventually be able to increase sales after a slower start for the second generation.

The engine lineup for model year 1974 came with a 318 (5.2-liter) two-barrel V8 offered as the base configuration and whose performance reached 170 horsepower, but needless to say, Plymouth also offered several more powerful units, including a new 360 (5.9-liter) V8 with 245 horsepower.

On the other hand, those who wanted more adrenaline had other options too, such as a 400 (6.6-liter) with 250 horsepower and a 440 (7.2-liter) with 275 horsepower.

In fact, everything on this Plymouth looks like it comes in a pretty rough condition, so whoever is brave enough to buy the car will have plenty of work to do not necessarily to fully restore it but to get it back on its wheels in the first place.
