Original 383, Original 727 TorqueFlite, Rare QQ1 Blue
This stunning 1968 Plymouth Road Runner is a true collector's dream, blending factory originality with a meticulous, high-quality restoration. Sporting matching numbers throughout—including the engine, transmission, and rear end—this Road Runner offers the real deal for Mopar enthusiasts and muscle car purists alike. Under the hood, you'll find the original, rebuilt 383ci V8 engine, delivering that iconic Mopar power with the rumble to match. Paired with the factory 727 TorqueFlite automatic transmission, this Road Runner drives as smooth as it is aggressive. Out back, the original 3.23 Sure-Grip rear end puts the power down reliably and confidently. Performance has been enhanced with heavy-duty springs, shocks, and a torsion bar suspension complete with sway bar, providing modern road manners without sacrificing authenticity. Stopping power is handled by the TrackPac braking system featuring factory 11" front disc brakes—a serious upgrade in 1968, and a rare find today. Finished in its one-year-only factory QQ1 Bright Blue, this car shines brilliantly under the sun, complemented by brand-new chrome and stainless trim throughout. It sits perfectly on Magnum 500 wheels wrapped in classic redline tires, delivering the ideal muscle car stance. Inside, the car boasts a 100% original interior in excellent condition, complete with its factory AM radio and a tinted windshield. Every detail speaks to the care and passion invested in this build. This Road Runner comes with a complete set of original documentation, including the Certicard, window sticker, original bill of sale, Advance Dealer Shipping Notice, and the broadcast sheet—making it not only a head-turning show car but also a highly documented piece of American automotive history. The restoration was expertly guided by none other than Mopar Magazine editor Richard Ehrenberg, ensuring every detail met enthusiast standards. With over $100,000 invested, this Road Runner stands as one of the finest examples on the market.
