1970 Plymouth Road Runner Convertible 4-Speed

This 1970 Plymouth is one of 621 Road Runner convertibles manufactured for the model year with a 383ci V8, of which 179 came with a four-speed manual transmission like this car. It was delivered new to DL Miller Auto Sales of Mishawaka, Indiana, and the seller purchased the vehicle in 2022 from its reported second owner. Refurbished under prior ownership, the Plymouth is finished in Bright Red with a white convertible top over white vinyl upholstery. Other equipment includes a Sure-Grip differential, staggered-width Cragar 15″ wheels, power-assisted front disc brakes, power steering, front bucket seats, a center console, a Hurst pistol-grip shifter, a “tic-toc” tachometer, an AM/eight-track radio, an Air Grabber hood, and Road Runner graphics. The clutch and the tires were replaced under current ownership, and the radio and the carburetor were rebuilt. This Road Runner is now offered in Arizona with a copy of its window sticker, a set of Magnum 14″ road wheels, and a Washington title in the seller’s name. Finished from the factory in Bright Red (E5), the car was repainted in the 1980s following replacement of the quarter panels and the trunk sheetmetal, according to the seller. The power-operated white convertible top has been replaced, and so has the matching top boot; the top is shown in its lowered position in the seller’s video gallery provided below. Details include Road Runner graphics, a black grille, a remote-adjustable driver-side mirror, a fender-mounted antenna, variable-speed windshield wipers, front vent windows, simulated quarter-panel scoops, bright trim, chrome bumpers, and dual exhaust outlets. The seller states that the quarter panels have been repainted to repair chips. Paint-correction work has been conducted under current ownership.
