Vehicle Detail
Here is a 1978 Plymouth Volare Road Runner with a 318 V8 motor, and automatic transmission, with a column shifter. This is a car that you do not see around very often. When have you ever seen one of these for sale in great running condition? Very rare car, less than 1000 ever produced. Plenty of Power. Extremely fast car. First place trophy winner. Real Head Turner! Gets more looks than a Mustang, Trans-Am, Camaro, Corvette, etc. Great car to take to car shows or cruise nights. You will not be disappointed with this car. Mechanically sound. Starts, runs, and drives great. Handles and Steers Great, just as tight as a new car. Can easily be driven around with no worries about reliability. Can easily be driven home, if desired. No leaks and no smoke. I focused on doing all the mechanical work that was needed to make this car safe and great fun to drive. Only work remaining is to finish up the exterior and interior asthetic and cosmetic work.
