horse_lady21 Store THIS AUCTION IS FOR MY 1974 PLYMOUTH ROADRUNNER PROJECT CAR. RECENT SERIOUS HEALTH ISSUES HAVE FORCED ME TO RE-EVALUATE MY LIFESTYLE AND SEVERAL BULGED DISCS IN MY LOWER BACK HAVE FORCED ME TO ACCEPT THE FACT THAT THIS IS ONE PROJECT THAT WILL NEVER GET DONE WHILE IN MY HANDS. I AM NOT EXPECTING TO DO ANYTHING BUT GET BACK THE AMOUNT THAT I PAID FOR THE CAR, AND SO THE RESERVE IS SET QUITE LOW. THAT BEING SAID, LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THE CAR. IT IS A TRUE ROADRUNNER, BUILT IN THE 1974 MODEL YEAR. IT IS A 400 IG BLOCK CAR AND A 4 SPEED. THAT IN ITSELF MADE IT WORTHWHILE TO BUILD, IN MY OPINION. IT HAS IT’S ORIGINAL FENDER TAG AND I WAS ABLE TO FIND THE BUILD SHEET. I HAVE A CLEAR AND FREE TITLE IN MY HANDS. FOLLOWING IS THE FENDER TAG DECODING: RM21: Plymouth Belvedere,Satellite Medium, Road Runner 2 Door Coupe P4G: 400 250HP(net) 1-4BBL 8 CYL 1974 St. Louis, MO, USA 247833: Sequence number E68: Unknown D21: 4 Speed Manual Transmission TX9: Black Exterior Color D6XW: Trim - Luxury, Vinyl Bucket Seats, Black/White 000: Full Door Panels 515: Build Date: May 15 351802: Order number TX9: Black Top Color U: USA Specifications B41: Front Disc Brakes w/Standard 10in RR Drum C56: Bucket Seats G51: Unknown J54: Sport Hood N41: Dual Exhaust N42: Chrome Exhaust Tips R35: AM/FM Stereo Radio (10 Watts) V8W: Tranverse Stripes, White 28: Unknown END: End of Sales Codes ALTHOUGH PAINTED RED AT SOME POINT IN IT’S LIFE, THE CAR WAS ORIGINALLY BLACK, WITH WHITE UPHOLSTERY AND BLACK CARPET AND HEADLINER, A VERY UNIQUE COMBINATION. IMAGINE THIS CAR DONE AND YOU CAN EASILY SEE WHY I WAS SO EXCITED TO HAVE FOUND IT. IT’S INTERIOR SHEET METAL CONDITION DID DETERIORATE OVER THE YEARS . PREVIOUS OWNERS CONVERTED IT TO AN AUTOMATIC AT SOME POINT IN IT’S LIFE. HOWEVER, THE ORIGINAL 4 SPEED HUMP WAS RETAINED. THE FLOOR PANS NEED INSTALLED (NEW PANS INCLUDED), AND THE DRIVERS SIDE ROCKER NEEDS REPLACED (ALSO INCLUDED). THERE IS RUST DAMAGE AROUND THE WHEEL WELLS AND WHEEL HOUSES, AND SOME IN THE TRUNK, AS PICTURED. THE FRAME IS VERY SOLID THOUGH, BOTH FRONT AND REAR. THE HOOD AND DECK LID ARE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. IT IS CURRENTLY WEARING FIERGLASS FRONT FENDERS. I HAVE LOCAL ACCESS TO ORIGINAL STEEL FENDERS FOR THE CAR AT A REASONABLE PRICE IF THE WINNER WOULD BE INTERESTED. THE ORIGINAL DOORS HAD SOME LOWER RUST ISSUES AND SO DOORS FROM ANOTHER ROADRUNNER WERE INSTALLED, THOUGH LOWER HINGES ARE MISSING. THE ENGINE IS CLEAN AND FREE MOVING BUT HAS NEVER BEEN STARTED. I DON’T KNOW IF IT THE ORIGINAL BUT WILL TRY TO FIND OUT BEFORE THE END OF THE AUCTION. IT CURRENTLY HAS A 2 BARREL INTAKE ON IT BUT THERE IS A 4 BARREL FACTORY INTAKE WITH THE SPARE PARTS. THE PASSENGER SIDE VALVE COVER HAD A PIECE CRACKED OFF AND SO WAS REMOVED. IT IS MISSING THE DISTRIBUTOR, THE MASTER CYLINDER AND OTHER SMALL ODDS AND ENDS. THE INTERIOR IS MOSTLY COMPLETE..ALL SEATS (FRONT BUCKETS/REAR BENCH) ARE WITH THE CAR AND IN GOOD CONDITION. THE DASH IS STILL INTACT. THERE ARE SEVERAL SHELVES OF PARTS AS WELL, INCLUDING 2 SETS OF DOOR PANELS, AN EXTRA GRILL, VALANCES, ETC. THIS CAR WOULD BE AN AWESOME MOPAR YOUNG GUNS PROJECT, OR A WONDERFUL FATHER/SON FATHER/DAUGHTER PROJECT. THIS COULD EASILY BE A $12-15,000 CAR IF DONE CORRECTLY. I AM HOPING THAT IT WILL GO TO SOMEONE WHO HAS THE MOTIVATION AND DRIVE (AND PHYSICAL CAPABILITY!) TO SEE THIS CAR BUILT. THE ROADRUNNER IS AVAILABLE TO BE SEEN IN PERSON, AND I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU COME TO SEE IT BEFORE BIDDING. I AM ALMOST ALWAYS AVAILABLE TO SHOW IT, AND WHEN I AM NOT, I HAVE OTHER PEOPLE WITH ACCESS TO IT. I AM HAPPY TO SEND OTHER PHOTOS AS REQUESTED AND ANSWER EMAILS DAILY. AS A LAST NOTE, PLEASE BID ONLY IF YOU HAVE THE FUNDS AVAILABLE. PLEASE DON’T WASTE MY TIME OR ENERGY HAVING TO LIST AND RE-LIST, ETC. I HAVE BEEN SELLING ON EBAY FOR 10 YEARS AND NEVER ONCE HAVE I BID OR WON SOMETHING WITHOUT HAVING THE CASH IN MY HANDS, AND I EXPECT ONLY THE SAME FROM OTHERS. THE CAR WILL OBVIOUSLY NEEDS TO BE TRAILERED, AND I DO HAVE EXPERIENCED PEOPLE TO HELP WITH LOADING. THE ROADRUNNER IS SOLD AS IS, WITH NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED.
