The Roadrunner. Unlike some sports cars (such as the Corvette), this muscle car is not fragile. It was built for serious street work. The Roadrunner was reportedly a favorite of moonshiners, faster than almost any police car and tough enough to take practically any bump, with good ground clearance to boot., , , , Offered For Sale by the California Automobile Museum, , , , A rare 1972 Plymouth Roadrunner GTX. One of 453 equipped with the automatic transmission, and one of the 672 made in the 1972 model year, this car just might make you the most popular person at your local Mopar club show. Powered by the biggest engine available, 440 cubic inches of Detroit muscle sits restlessly at the command of your right foot. The Plymouth starts and idles very well. It drives true and straight shifting properly through all the gears and stops properly on demand. The drive train is all original and unmolested. It has been well cared for and maintained by its two owners and it is claimed that the odometer has not rolled over, showing its true and original mileage. The 440 engine retains its factory intake & exhaust manifolds, dual snorkel breather, power steering, and Mopar electronic ignition. It is also equipped with air conditioning. The air conditioning system is currently disconnected but it appears all of the parts are there to reassemble, repair, and get functional. There is some fluid seepage visible under the car, possibly from leaking valve covers or a leaking oil pan. The 727 torqueflite automatic transmission also has some evidence of fluid seepage but operates as it should. The car handles very well for its size and still retains its factory rear end with rear sway bar. It stays attached to the road by vintage aluminum slotted mags wrapped in newer 235/60/15 Futura GLS Super Sport tires. The center caps are missing unfortunately and are not available in this sale. The car also includes what is thought to be the original spare tire and rim. There is a very faint intermittent click from the front end while driving. The source is unknown. The brakes operate very well on this car and the car stops at all speeds straight and true with no pulling, shimmying, or shaking. There is also new rear brake parts included in this sale. This Roadrunner is a clean California owned car, re-painted in the factory (TB3) Basin Street Blue or "Petty Blue". The body is nearly laser straight and is very presentable. The paint is a decent quality base coat clear coat application but has some small surface preparation flaws visible beneath or through it. The Plymouth originally came with a full black vinyl top but that was deleted when the paint was done. The car has good glass all the way around with the rear 3 tinted. There is a very small chip on the driver's door glass at the top front section and the glass alignment is not perfect as when it is rolled completely up, it touches the rear quarter glass. All of the exterior lighting is good and functional and the lenses are all in good shape. The panel fitment is very good. The doors, hood/bonnet, and trunk/boot open and shut as they should and all of the locks operate properly. The doors are in need of very slight adjustment to get the body lines perfect but it is barely noticeable. The only real flaws to the exterior painted surfaces are a small chip on the upper leading edge of the passenger's door and a very small dent on the passenger's side corner of the trunk lid. The chrome and stainless trim are all in decent shape for being 40 years old. It all still shines well but there are some small blemishes and signs of patina beginning to show. The Roadrunners interior is a nice combination of original and refreshed materials. The black vinyl seats are all in good shape with the exception of a small blemish on the passenger's side lower seat portion. The carpet is new but could use some minimal stretching to get it just right. The door panels are all nice, neat, and clean with no significant signs
