Documented Restored Road Runner Superbird 426 HEMI V8
Sixteen words: fully documented, professionally restored Plymouth Road Runner Superbird Hemi that's covered in correct Tor-Red two-stage… If you like the sound of that sentence, you're going to LOVE the car it describes! This 'bird, a highly optioned New York native, features an exceptionally straight, all original body that was perfected over a multi-year, frame-off restoration commissioned by Wellborn Muscle Car Museum. Toss its long hood and you'll find an original, 426 cubic inch Hemi V8 that's authenticated by a famous 2468330 casting number and matching 176669 partial VIN. As Plymouth's top option for power hungry gearheads, Chrysler's legendary elephant block utilizes cast iron heads, an oversquare bore, a forged steel crank, forged steel rods, forged aluminum pistons and a hydraulic cam to twist stout 10.25 to 1 compression into a stated 425 horsepower and 490 lb./ft. of torque. Like that Hemi, the car's original A727 Torqueflite, which is branded with a matching 176669 partial VIN, needed very little work to be in tight, like-new condition. That stalwart gearbox sends power to an 8.75-inch Chrysler rear end which is equipped with correct 3.55 gears. Stops come courtesy of standard power front disc and rear drum brakes. And all this Mopar goodness rolls on standard steel wheels which twist F60-15 Goodyear Polyglas GTs around correct, satin-finished center caps. With an exclusive, numbers matching powertrain, original sheet metal and enough visual flash to stand out in a mirror factory, this awesome coupe is about as close to the ultimate muscle car as you can get!
