My Great Grandparents were from Sydney Iowa then moved West to Seattle Then moved to Vancouver island British Columbia Canada Your Dad built a sweet Mopar!
Rallye Green for Plymouth and Chrysler) was only available for a limited production run in the spring of 1969. The seasonal availability of the color not only made it incredibly rare, but also earned it the nickname “Spring Green”. Even at the most prestigious of auto events, you’ll be lucky to find an original, real-deal “Spring Green” car.
That is not only mopar-perfection, but muscle car perfection. The stance, the color, the wheels and tires, the motor. Everything! Man, there's a lot of "need and want" there :P
EF6 Bright Green/Rallye Green, In the spring of 1969, both Dodge and Plymouth debuted one of the first and arguably one of the rarest High Impact options. Only available on a limited production run, Dodge named it Bright Green, while at Plymouth, it was called Rallye Green. No matter which name it goes by, EF6 is a rare and desirable color.
Thanks for the spot on answer…I read some of the same info but didn’t know for sure. I appreciate and hopefully others see and read this comment for accuracy
I love these older cars. My dad had a 68 T-bird coupe with a short stroke 429...I totally enjoyed being pinned to the seat in it as a kid. We talk about it all the time, he's 78 and I'm 48. Wish I could find another one 😢
Street raced a 68 Roadrunner with a 383 and a four speed in the mid 70's. Put a Hurst shifter and a Hurst T handle on that car and then you will really be impressed! It weighed about 3/4 of a pound so it gave mass inertia and going from second to third, well, like punching someone in the face with heavy brass knuckles.
Dude! This is easily in the Top 10 of cars you have featured! This thing is so damn cool! This is yet another reason I love watching your videos! Can you imagine calling a Road Runner a "Sleeper"????? Rad!
I owned a 69 Road Runner 383 4spd, and I miss it when I see another one. 69 is my favorite yr. I do not like vinyl tops but when you put a HEMI in one I could fall for most of them. I love the whine and giddyup Thanks Shawn you made my day. I hope the clutch pedal is softer than my old 69, mine was like a very heavy spring and made a sound of its own. I let some folks drive it and would giggle if we had to set at a stop light too long lol. You could see their leg shaking anticipating the release. Fond memories.
This, Hellcat and 6-speed, and LSA 6-speed swap Nova are the vehicles I dream of being able to afford to restore and build one day. One day. Gotta keep busting my ass and it’ll be a reality
Gorgeous, the way I would do one. Subtle and bad ass. Color matched rims and the dog dish caps are killer This thing has the stance of my youth. That is how the hot rods were back in the day. Still love it today
Damn what a car, it looks factory especially with the steelies and then you hear that Hellcat whine but the cherry on top of all this build is the pistol grip shifter, this car just blows me away.
Perfect combination. At least for me cars from the 50/60/70s are way better looking then the toys the build today. Sure the tech you get in nowadays cars is more convenient, reliable and has more creature comfort. If you have the money you can have the best of both worlds. The way better styling of the old cars with the way better tech from the new ones.
The pistol grip shifter, what made the Roadrunners so awesome. I looked at a 69 GTO at an estate sale. Had a pistol grip that was used in the 71 up b bodies. It was perfect for ergonomics in that GTO
I do agree that pistol grips are where it’s at. However, only 70s and later would have had one. This 69 would had had a ball with the shift pattern on it.
I am 72 years young and this Plymouth Road Runner is a killer and like you guy's were saying maybe in the near future when everyone is being forced into the EV thing these old school muscle cars will be even even more cool......I just can't get into that EV car thing sorry
When I had my 69 RoadRunner back in the day when you would see 5 or 10 of them on the streets every day I was running Cragars at all 4 corners, then later around the mid 80s I took the Cragars off and put the black steel rims on it with the dog dish hubcaps like this but said Plymouth on them.
God I'd love that engine in my 66 el camino oddly enough it didn't have any lettering or insignias on it so I bought the letters that spell out on the back now, Hell Camino666
Fantastic build!!!! Everytime I hear that supercharger whine, I feel happier than a kindergarten on a seesaw! Every part of this car is perfect! That interior work, roll cage, head lights are crazy... I love it!! And the vintage a/c is a must.
I had 69' RoadRunner as my daily driver in the mid 70s until the late 80s. In the late 70s I had 2 vehicles so switched back and forth. No one complained about if I can or can not drive a vehicle all day or not.
Beautiful car, love the build! Not everyone will will be able to afford electric cars, and I'm in the oil & gas industry, we're not going away anytime soon. Cheers!
Cruise Control was available from the factory in 1969, my 383 automatic Sport Satellite had it. The option code was N88 if I remember correctly. It stands out in my brain because it was an uncommon option, especially in a Plymouth. That said, given the choice between an original, numbers matching Road Runner and this car, I'd go for the original. But then, a Pistol Grip in a '69 sticks out like a sore thumb to me since it wasn't available until the '70 model year.
@richarddevoe5871 71s are Wicked too. I miss the 72 we had. I want to own a 71 with a 72 grille and taillights. I hate the cheapo standard raised side markers Mopar went with across the board in 72. The 71 marker lights are a thing of Beauty. 👍
This is where I’m going with my Duster. The over all look. Don’t think it’ll be a Hellcat though, a 392 in a little A-body should be the balance I’m looking for. I’m torn, I have black steelies on it now that I love but I’ve been considering Trans Am Engineering Superlites in a magnesium color. We’ll see. Finishing some projects on my old Dodge 4x4 for a Moab trip this October. Then I can turn to the Duster.
Yup, you can stuff your modern electric cars up the chimney for all I care - this is absolutely GORGEOUS! As Steve McQueen once said, "New stuff is NO good!" This most certainly IS!!
Man that thing sounds bad ass!! That whole sleeper thing kind of goes out the window because when that thing pulls up next to you, you know that thing is got some serious horsepower. Maybe if you had a regular exhaust on it, but anybody who who hears that thing is going to know you got some serious power under that hood!!!
Absolutely stunning car awesome color and love that the car pretty much looks stock but has all the goodies hidden 👌👌👌 so tasteful MOPAR MUSCLE 💪🇺🇸💪🇺🇸💪
Love this. Had a green 1969 Road Runner in the 1990s and I’ll never forget how that thing jumped from a rolling start and the growl of its 383. Hope the next owner restored it and took it to car shows like he planned. Hawaii car with no heater from the factory if I remember right. Hope he got his $1500 worth. 😂. I’m not a huge car guy so it was just fun to own it for a while. I’m not bitter.😢
Every week I wait for this program, Shaun; I never know what you'll have on it but I know that it will be cool. Love everything about this Roadrunner and am presently asking myself why in hell I ever sold mine. Little things make the car.....subtle, like the pipes running clear of the back bumper. Hey, if you're getting rid of exhaust fumes; get rid of 'em! The dog dish hubcaps, white striping, white vinyl top all coordinate to make this car stand out in a way that is different and one of a kind. Keep the Faith, Buddy. Tom P.S. More Mopar, if you please.

This car is perfection to me, I love the original look with modern drivetrain and suspension
These cars don't need anything to improve their looks. They are absolutely awesome they way they came from the factory
My dad built this car in his shop in Iowa!!! So cool for you guys to show it off! ❤️💪
That’s so great!! Please tell him I loved the look and it drove perfectly!!
Grandpa knows how to turn heads
Your Pops did an amazing job🤙🤘😎
That's cool as hell shout out to pops 💪
My Great Grandparents were from Sydney Iowa then moved West to Seattle

Pistol grip shifter!! Yes!! This is how a classic MOPAR with the Hellcat engine should be set up!!
Love this build. The perfect mix of modern and keeping the classic looks

Don't know what's cooler, the paint scheme, the red line tires or the hunk of iron and aluminum under the hood. Terrific build on every level.

Love this car, including the pistol grip. And that's the way I'd do it, even though the pistol grip wasn't available in 69.
That car is a perfect example of mixing old with new. It all looks and works great together.
now this i love, old school looks with modern engine and stuff
Me too! Such a perfect combo on this car

I saw this car in person on hotrod power tour in 2021. Pretty sweet car.
The white interior and top for a dodge or Plymouth makes is a white hat special

Back to Tuesday Friday videos luv it
Saw that car on the 2021 Power Tour. It's a killer machine...
Really special car. I’m digging the poverty caps.
LoveThe roadrunner the way it should be I bet it's a lot lighter than a Hellcat have a great day that's awesome

my father had a '69 Roadrunner with the pistol grip. A such beautiful car. My hearts pounds so fast when he revs up the engines

May be one of my favorite cars on here. The white interior is perfect.
I need to add this car to my collection..
Luv a tuff MOPAR shoot.. thanks Shawn 💪🏻
Perfect Plymouth Road Runner, Rally Green sweet mopar. Excellent looking car so original.
This is the look I'm going for with my road runner. That hell cat motor is just a dream though. I'll be sticking with the 383 😢
Yeah it’s a helluva car right ? It is a dream but my 71 RR is still a 383 with a pistol grip. It works fine for me on my budget…

Love the color!
Insanely amazing ride!! You guys are great together. Talk about being on the same page! great show, great car!!
Thank you. Yoel is a good friend and has an amazing business. And yes…I love this car!
Love the colour combo!
Beautiful car
I love the factory wheel look. Yet the tires look like tiger paws grasping the ground with a good width....
Old school looks with new school reliability. Soooooo sick
MOPAR OR NO CAR!!!! BAD ASS CAR!!!!!😎👍👍
Just outstanding. Great build, Great Car. Wow, just a perfect car. That's for sharing this car
This car has everything desirable. Gorgeous build! I'm in love!
That’s all I’d ever want or need right there. Perfect setup for the street. Thanks for your channel it’s one of my favorites 🤘🏻
I’ve binged all of your videos
Love the color 👍👍
I hate to criticize so I'll just say I love the sleeper look and the stance of this car, and I'm sure it's a great driver!
Man that is a wicked bird. I had a b5 69 in high-school 1978
Now that's one Mean Green Machine Dude ! 🫡🇺🇸
awesome job ...
Really nice swap 😎
Bad Ass !! Love the 6 speed pistol grip , Super Rad build !
Absolutely stunning car awesome color and love that the car pretty much looks stock but has all the goodies hidden 👌👌👌 so tasteful
MOPAR MUSCLE 💪🇺🇸💪🇺🇸💪
Hit the road runner Jack…. Nice even in green
...and the builder or owner didn't go for goof ball 22" "pro-touring" rims. Respect.
i love this car. And the hellcat under the hood. It's such a great combo. if it was mine. i would change the top interior and rims to black.
Thankyou for bringing this machine to us love it
My brothers 69 Runner was Omaha Orange with the white vinyl top.
It was awesome.
The cold air intake gives it more noise not smaller pulleys. Even with the stock airbox they still whine good.
Classic MOPARs deserve either a built 440 or a 426. This is sacrilege.
It’s a reliable every day driver
Absolutely NOTHING cooler than a hellcat swap while leaving the vehicle looking original
Agreed and this one is really well done
Let's see some more off-road trucks!
We will I’m sure
Love this. Had a green 1969 Road Runner in the 1990s and I’ll never forget how that thing jumped from a rolling start and the growl of its 383.
