1975 roadrunner

[Kern Dog]

A Roadrunner,  mean a Road (Space) Runner is a cool car from 1968 to 1974. 75 and later? Uhhh, well, good luck with that.

decal was optional.

If the decal was optional what else differentiated the thing from any other Fury?

[Ghoste]

Thats what I was wondering.  There wasn't anything in the vin or on the fender tag to differentiate it was there?  The good (at least better) engine was an option and IIRC it was optional in other models as well, so what was the big deal?

i have a chance to get a 1975 roadrunner for 100.00 it needs work and it ben sitting a long time out side. the vin is rm21l5g193934. the in side looks ok and it has a 360 eng

My days of dragging home a POS like that are looooong gone. The only way I'd even consider it now, is if the 360 starts, runs, & the delivery to my house was included for that $100. Even then, it better have something on it that I actually need, or I'd have pass on it. Getting it just to sell parts from is a huge pain in the ass & hardly worth the amount of time involved as well as all the deadbeats that crawl out from under rocks that say they need something from it. The last $100 parts car that I got, which was delivered for that price, I still have crap from it that I'm tripping over & can't give away. (1967 Barracuda Fastback)

Heretic I am! I love the quirkyness of these cars.

I had one once and I'd love to find another one!

PM if you find one!

they still had a RM vin for road runner only.

[Ghoste]

Oh?  Okay, wow I thought that had ended with the 74.

These cars have grown on me.   Not a bad looking race car.

I bought a new 1975 Road Runner, 400 car. I would sort of like to buy one now because of the one I bought new. The only way I would buy one is if it needed nothing and it had a 400 and it was cheap. No way I would buy one that needed work, you'd be upside down on it in 1 second.
They were actually a pretty good car. Mine went well for a 1975 car and it handled quite well with the front and rear sway bars too. A 1975 Trans Am was probably about the only 75 car (oh except a 360 A-body) that was quicker.

Scaregrabber what color combo did you have?

There is your t-shirt slogan of the week. 

[Scaregrabber]

Mine was "vintage red" (maroon) in and out with the white stripes, it didn't have the optional tunnel deck lid decal just the regular white upside down U shape decal on the trunk. I think a flat black hood was an option as well although I've never seen one.

Did you ever pick of the 75? If you did not, where is it at? I'd like to contact for parts.
