1970 426 Hemi Road Runner convertible recreation

[NJRR]

Closed at $76.1k, didn't hit reserve. Still a hell of a lot of coin for a clone, even if it is a Hemi.

 

[NJRR]

Now this is more realistic. Asking $42k or best offer.

1970 Plymouth GTX Tribute
440 V8, 727 TF AUTO, PWR STEER & BRAKE, PWR TOP, STR8 BODY, SUNNY DAY CRUISER!!

I wonder why they didn't convert the interior to a GTX as well.

Simple answer; $$$$$

I love the stance. The go wing I can do without. I had one on my 70 RR and it looked right. Doesn't work for me on the vert.

I looked at the hemi RR convertible recreation before seeing this thread. Thought the same thing about the VIN. What was it originally? If that's what your looking for, great and it actually looks nice. My concern was it was some 318 Belvedere coupe that was butchered into this and who knows what was done. Wouldn't consider bidding on that with a lot more details.

Another member, Nick2317, emailed the seller who gave Nick the real Vin. It was RM27NOG233024, which is a 383 RR convertible.

That's kinda what I was suspecting, still I thought it was a felony to swap vin #s

I think the VIN on the car and the title are the real VIN. It's in his listing that he uses a Hemi VIN. That's the issue.

He just re-listed it. No change, still with the bogus VIN. What do you guys think? Give him a heads up on what we think and a chance to correct it?

 

[Dreamcatcher]

Either way its fraud to list in the auction with a wrong vin. Trying to get someone to buy it by false information.

and Roadrunners were offered as Convertible - but not the GTX.

Correct! I think it was '68-'70 Road Runners & '68-'69 GTX's that were available as a convertible. NJRR clued me in about the Satellite convertibles (not Sport Satellite) in '70 and I have no idea about '68 or '69 Satellite convertibles???

So RM27N0G is a 383 RR 'vert.. The guy should just show a pic of the fender tag and title and put it to bed. It's a beauty regardless.

He should but he isn't. And he has the phony "HEMI" VIN in the listing. Seems like he's trying to scam a sucker.

Totally agree the car is sweet.

Looks like the bidders are catching on. Listing closed $13+k lower than the first time around, $62,600 vs $76,100.
