For Sale: Not Mine 1969 J Code Hemi RR on BAT

[dfrazz]

Although there are many things not OEM on this Hemi RR for sale on BAT, curious on your thoughts. Not sure what Galen fender tag decoding adds/subtracts as the tag looks questionable to me.

1969 Plymouth Road Runner Coupe Hemi

Ugh. I'm a purist. I'm not impressed. I think they even got the mufflers installed incorrectly, although I'm not familiar with those in particular, unless it has something to do with the exhaust cut-offs. Tag looks fake aged, but I'm no expert, whatsoever. Just my opinion.

 

[1 Wild R/T]

In 2008 it had a legit fender tag... What happened to it?? It also had the numbers matching engine & trans until 2025.... WTH???

 

[SgtSuperbird]

The engine must have gone to the same place the correct air cleaner assembly went.

 

[dadsbee]

Govier paperwork adds nothing to the value!

Tag is a repro, but it appears the original comes with it to put in your safe... I have two cars as such. (or maybe that's just an old picture of the original tag??!!!)

Air Grabber box that comes with it is not a Hemi box !

 

[dadsbee]

OH... that and you had me excited when you said '68 J Code !

 

[SgtSuperbird]

About the air box... can you explain?

 

[DeltaV]

My customary comment...who routed the positive battery cable?

 

[DeltaV]

Fixed the title!

 

[dadsbee]

About the air box... can you explain?

Doesn't have the Hemi only master cylinder clearance boot... as far as I'm aware all Hemi's got this whether they had power or manual brakes. I've been know to be wrong before...

AI written description.

Original color over orange any day.

Air cleaner is horrendous.

I know little about hemi cars, but it appears the important letter in the vin is the only original part.

 

[eldubb440]

Finished from the factory in Spanish Gold Metallic (Y4), the car has been repainted in Hemi Orange, according to the seller.

that's not hemi orange, unless they used engine paint

I don't usually comment on cars for sale, but this one appears to be a FrankenMoPar done by a Toyota salesperson.


A real(?) J-code deserves better

1968 radio
1968 switch panel
1970 cluster?
?? year door and 1/4 trim panels
Cheap radiator
Painted gas tank and straps
Satellite trunk trim
6 way driver's seat (sans trim)

I think the mufflers are on backwards. Could be a fun street/strip runner but shouldn’t bring big Hemi dollars.

 

[RemCharger]

At Least it's not an LA car.

 

[matthon]

Just got way worse.

 

[DeltaV]

The car is running in the interior video, but there isn't a key in the ignition. Maybe you could still do that in '69?

Dang! lube the door hinge!!!

That's okay...so is the fuel filter.

 

[DeltaV]

My customary comment...who routed the positive battery cable?

The same person that used worm-drive clamps on the radiator hoses and fuel filter hoses.

Painted gas tank and straps

Never even heard of a body colored painted gas tank, and straps.

For posterity.
