Sure, big-block V-8s get all sorts of attention and make lots of noise and fury, but small-block V-8s have their place, too, especially for those folks who don’t care for big-block cars’ higher purchase price, poorer fuel mileage, and generally worse everyday driveability. This four-speed, 360-powered 1974 Plymouth Road Runner for sale on Hemmings.com, then, makes for a more manageable daily driver that still has plenty of power in reserve. From the seller’s description:
I have been the fourth owner of the vehicle and have treated it with utmost care upon purchase. It is in a very good condition inside and out. This car is not a show car and needs a little bit of bodywork. However, it is a finished car that is ready to be enjoyed by the next owner. The 360 runs great and has plenty of power. Plenty of performance but not too radical that you can drive it on a daily basis comfortably. It has a smooth shifting 4 speed manual transmission. The 360 with 4 speed is a rare combination that was only available in 74′. The power steering makes it a cinch to drive. The exterior panels are nice and straight with no rust, the interior is clean and all important features and gauges working. It has an added oil pressure gauge under the dash. The roadrunner is a factory AC car with Heater. It has a nice set of chrome Centerline Wheels and brand New BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires. Nice tight suspension and front disc brakes with standard 10 inch rear drums that stop the car quickly and in a straight line. Some upgrade parts include Magnaflow side exhaust. The oil has been changed less then 100 miles ago during the recent service. No mechanical issues have been detected as I have up kept all my maintenance work with my mechanic. And most importantly, there have been no accidents or damages to the vehicle. The body is free of rust. The underbody, frame, and floors are solid and extremely clean.
