Vintage Mopar fans, prepare to be blown away. This 1970 Plymouth Road Runner Tribute was the product of a meticulous, uncompromising restoration that's left it in stellar condition - as evidenced by its Best in Show finish at the Dallas Autorama for 3 straight years. Rotisserie restored to a level not often found in the Mopar world, this killer B-Body features a thumping 440 V8 with aluminum heads, an upgraded suspension, and an insanely clean, bright red livery that really puts it over the top in the show field. Take a closer look but do so quickly, because dialed-in Mopars that look this good never last long.
Red is the color you choose when you want to get noticed, and what could be more fitting for a Plymouth of this era than the slick red color on this beauty? An incredible amount of prepping and workmanship went into its application (blocked and sanded 8 times before any paint touched the body!), so the shade is in great form, with that special fresh look usually reserved for cars that have just emerged from the paint shop. A sharp, contrasting flat black scoop sits on the big hood and it's fully functional - ushering air to the big block engine waiting inside, and the side scoops in the giant rear fenders accentuate this Mopars muscular curves. Like all the best-looking Road Runners from this era, the decal package tells the story of the power underneath, although the '440' decals are somewhat subdued – letting that laser-straight bodywork and gorgeous paint do all the talking. As you'd expect from a restoration of this caliber, all the finishing touches have been looked after - the blacked-out grille and matching tail panel are crisp, clean rubber trim surrounds all the windows and the body lines are as precise as can be, allowing the doors, hood and decklid to open and shut as smoothly as when this Plymouth first hit the road.
The sporty vinyl interior is a combination of stock and modified, and it's ever bit as dialed-in as the bodywork. Sculpted buckets and a custom console anchor the cabin up front, beautifully upholstered in black vinyl that makes it feel upscale inside. All the soft stuff inside looks and feel almost brand new – from the matching rear bench seat, the flanking door panels, and the taut headliner above. The carpets have been replaced, and the reproduction threads use the correct nap and weave for a factory-correct look that fully insulates the entire cabin. It's got a full complement of gauges inside the wide factory dash, further augmented with a tachometer strapped to the steering column and a set of Equus auxiliary units inside the custom center console. That trick console gets lots of attention, as it also houses a modern JVC head unit powering booming aftermarket speakers, controls for the ice-cold Vintage A/C system, and a chrome and cue-ball B&M shifter that manages the automatic transmission below. The spacious trunk was finished back to stock and features a period-perfect mat and full-size spare mounted correctly in the back hump.
Under the big hood this Plymouth's original 318 is gone, replaced by a fully rebuilt 440 cubic inch V8 augmented with aluminum heads. It was rebuilt about 9000 miles ago and offers a very slick look, from the blacked-out air cleaner and matching Mopar Performance finned valve covers, to the deep black paint on the block itself. There's an Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor underneath, and thanks to proper tuning, it starts easily and pulls through the gears like it's trying to escape from something. A 727 TorqueFlite automatic transmission was upgraded with a gear-vendor overdrive, making it a 6-speed unit that's an eager travelling partner, always picking the right gear for long cruises and eager to downshift for a punch of acceleration off the line thanks to the 3.91 POSI rear end. The insanely clean underside shows off how everything was sand-blasted and prepped during the rotisserie restoration, and it features an upgraded suspension up front (tubular control arms, fresh shocks and coils, a sway bar, and power steering and power front discs) and heavy duty set-up out back (upgraded air shock, leaf springs, and a sway bar) to make it easy to handle around town. A custom 2.5 inch exhaust with Flowmaster-style mufflers and exhaust cut-outs sounds spectacular, existing through chrome tips underneath the rear bumper. 17-inch chrome wheels are a great choice on this Mopar muscle and they're wrapped in 235/45/17 front and 275/40/17 rear radials with plenty of grip
If you're looking for an upper-echelon MoPar ride that's at the top of its game both in terms of looks and running condition, you have to check out this absolutely dialed-in 197 Plymouth Road Runner Tribute. Call today!

General Terms
Terms & Conditions
We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).
FEES
: A documentation fee of 9 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees.
AVAILABILITY
: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.
CONTACT
: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.
INSPECTION
: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
PAYMENT
: We require a non-refundable 0 deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers. SHIPPING: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.
DRIVE IT HOME
: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility.
DOCUMENTS & VEHICLE TITLE
: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.
VIN VERIFICATION
: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer's sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.
MILEAGES
: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.
CONDITION
: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.
AS-IS
: All vehicles are sold "AS IS" and with no warranties expressed or implied. If you choose to waive inspection, do plan to have a detailed and transparent conversation with us regarding the vehicle's condition. Ask the hard questions up front. Please just call us, we are here to help and welcome all your questions!
DISCLAIMER
: This site and all advertising information may be updated without notice whenever new information is obtained and may contain mistakes and inaccuracies. Information is provided to the best of our knowledge and we make no warranty or representation regarding the accuracy, truth, or reliability of such information. We cannot be responsible for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies contained in information provided by the consignor/seller of the vehicle. We strive to perform extensive visual inspections on all vehicles we represent but we do not disassemble vehicles or components for inspection purposes and therefore it is always possible that there is hidden damage that is not readily apparent. All vehicles are sold AS-IS with no warranties expressed or implied.
Fees and Taxes
Sales tax, title, license fee, registration fee, dealer documentary fee, finance charges, emission testing fees, and compliance fees are additional to the advertised price. Vehicle is listed locally, we reserve the right to end the auction at any time.
