Real HEMI Roadrunner amazing all original sheetmetal, warranty replacement 1969 426 Hemi. 2nd owner owned since 1986. 4.10 Dana, original transmission. N96 car (available) $86k Amazing car.
The long version -
This 1969 factory 426 Hemi “Drag Pack” Roadrunner was purchaced in 1985 by the current owner form the 2nd owner that was bracket racing the car through the late 1970’s as was the original owner and is why this Hemi car still has all of its original sheetmetal and was never cut in any way.
As so many of these original Hemi cars the original motor was over-revved and met its fate but was under the factory warranty and posses one of the few “Factory Warranty Replacement” 1969 date correct Hemi blocks. This is just one of the things that makes this Hemi car such a rare and amazing machine.
The interior on this 2 door “post” Roadrunner is all business and was completely restored in the early 1990’s in the correct tan and buckskin with all legendary materials throughout. The non-nonsense bench seat and column shift add to the “Go Fast” approach the original owner intended.
Again, the rebuilt date correct replacement Hemi motor is backed by the original well built and hard shifting 727 transmission and that is followed by the Dana 60 with factory optioned “Trac Loc” 4.10 Sure Grip rear that does all it can to get the monster Hemi to hook up the 275/60/15 tires but fails in a spectacular cloud of smoke at the command of your right foot. The owners name is Jim and loves showing how well the Hemi can destroy a set of rear tires!
The car is a N96 factory “Air Grabber” car and comes with (Not Installed) fiberglass under hood unit along with a correct set of “Black Wrinkle” Hemi Valve covers and correct orange Top air cleaner Plate. The correct 15” Hemi stamped steel wheels are also included with the sale of this car. In the stamped steel wheels stead are a perfect set of reproduction 15” Chrome Ralley Road Wheels and white letter tires.
The inside of the trunk of the Hemi Roadrunner is beautifully painted and covering the perfect original trunk floor is a reproduction matt but does not have a spare tire or the original jack.
This car received a complete rotisserie restoration in the early 1990’s as mentioned above and the paint looks like it was done last year. This is an “Extremely nice Restored Driver” Jim Has used this car and enjoyed every tire melting mile!
The car has been featured in Mike Muellers fabulous book “The complete book of Dodge and Plymouth Muscle”
Jim was interviewed about his 1969 Hemi Roadrunner by Dennis Gage for an episode of “My Classic Car”
This is not a “Concourse Restoration” but was built with trophy’s and good times in mind. Jim did a great job Preserving this car and making it one of the best original 1969 Hemi Roadrunner Post cars around.
I have ridden in this car and have known the car since I was 9 years old, it never disappoints.
