Is a 75 Roadrunner worth anything?

I have the opportunity to pick up a 75 roadrunner. Will the disc brakes work on my 68? It's just a roller but I figured I could take the brakes and sell it if it's worth anything. The guy still has the 400 engine and said i could have it if I want it. The motor and tranny are out of the car. I haven't seen it. I am really only looking at it as potential disc brakes and maybe a few bucks fort he rest pf the car. Is it worth the hassle? I have to decide by Friday.

Yes, the brakes will work. Just yank the spindles and all. It will make installation very simple.

Sweet!! That's good to know. That will make it worth getting. I wonder if anything else is worth having? I guess I could sell the rest for scrap. I might try selling it on Ebay. I have a feeling the car won't be worth much. If he's willing to just give me the 400 engine I will definitely snag that.

Are the seats in it yet? If they are buckets, I think the seat foam is the same as '72 buckets? If it is, I'll be interested :yesnod:

The auto shifter- if it's on the floor in a console it's a one-year item, from what I'm told from my buddy with the Cordoba.  Check out this site, should be able to unload what you don't want here:

I'd be interested in the shell Telvis.  I am in Missouri, if your within 2 states I'd take it off your hands for a few dollars.

I hope you save this car instead of scraping it out, it sounds like a rare ride. If people restore a 318 Charger why not a 400 Road Runner?

It is a pretty rare ride.

But, I'm not sure how collectible they are. I've seen pretty clean ones going for less than 2 grand. I bet the 400 was in a minority of them though. That was gas crunch time....

318  and 360, but not 400 that I remember....

I like those cars. There was a BEAUTIFUL 75 RR at the Mopar Nationals. It was loaded up with a 400, a bronze color. :thumbs: Too bad they're not more popular.

As far as I know, the 75 RR was engineered with decals and not much else different from the Fury.

I never cared for them.

I'd much rather have the 76-80 Volare based models that followed it.

Telvis

Staying with my simplify you life philosophy I have had lately I decided not to go get the car. I just don't feel like messing with it. If any of you want it let me know. It's in Georgetown, KY. I will call the guy for you and let him know you want it.
