1970 Plymouth Road Runner Convertible 440 4 Speed in Blue & Ride on My Car Story with Lou Costabile

On "My Car Story" we're in the West Suburbs of Chicago IL on 11-1-21.

We're looking at a 1970 Plymouth Road Runner Convertible in B5 Blue Paint. The car comes with the 440 CI V8 engine “Six Barrel”, and a 4 Speed manual transmission with a Pistol Grip Shifter.

The car's Owner is Bob Perrye. Bob’s had this car since 2015. He shared saw this car and it has everything. It’s “The Total Package” for him.

ENJOY!

The Blue Roadrunner chirped as it took flight...how absolutely perfect!

[TheGunfighteracp]

I agree with Mr. Perrye. This Mopar is the total package! Very well said. Thanks, Lou!

[JeffKing]

Beautiful Roadrunner - just amazing. I certainly have a soft spot for Roadrunners and this example is perfect.

Love the colour too! What a fun video.

Thanks Lou!

Awesome road runner!!! That car is absolutely perfect!!! I love the clean look without the dust trails and that B5 blue is so beautiful with the black stripes and details, just magnificent!!! A 440+6, air grabber, pistol grip shifted 4 speed, and it's a convertible too!!! This is an absolute dream car!!! I love how Dodge called their carburetor set up a "Six Pack" and Plymouth called it a "Six Barrel", so cool. Thanks for the ride along, driving it like he stole it, and the view of the back of the hood bulge let's you not forget what's under that hood!!! Supreme car Lou!!!

Hi, Lou! With a Six Pack like this, who needs beer?! When you see that air grabber open and hear that "Beep Beep" horn, there's only one thing you can do...STAND BACK! I think you and Bob left more than a few coyotes in the dust on this ride! Add to this total package the fact that it's a rare bird, just 824 built. Just as the ads said in 1970, "Plymouth makes it!"

Thanks a million for showing us this fast colorful bird and taking us along for an air grabbin' ride!

Roadrunners: Subtle and aggressive at the same time. One of my all time favorites, but I am a MOPAR fan to begin with. And Lou, you like the blues, and I like the convertibles. Thank you & Bob for a great presentation on an ever frigid night here in the Midwest.

[DrRobertMPick]

My fav car and year ever! I like it in Lime Green. But And the horn goes beep!

Beautiful Roadrunner. The details on this car are first rate. This is top of the food chain muscle car. Thanks Lou 👍👍

Absolutely beautiful and perfect and also with the 440-6bbl, PistolGrip, Air Grabber etc... and a convertible too!!! WAW, -Big credits to the people that have done the restoration of this car. - So perfect. - In my opinion, the 1970 Roadrunner convertible is one of the nicest cars ever made. - Thank you Lou, and to the lucky owner of this awesome beauty.

What a great treat to wrap up the day. Beautiful car. Love the blue, 440, and of course, the 4-speed! Thanks for the video!

[garymckee]

Another yes, it's too bad that vehicles like that are not produced today.
Thanks Lou.

This is one nice Road Runner. It has all of the standard features that make this Mopar example what it is. The 440 Magnum with Air Grabber hood scoop and it's "beep beep" horn show that it's a true Road Runner. That is one fine muscle car, indeed!

[MisterMikeTexas]

Now that is an epic Six Pack Roadrunner! And quite a sound from those tailpipes. And it's a pistol grip 4 speed! I hope you guys got some coffee after riding around out in the open!

[larryborkstrom]

The best part is when you showed the underneath of this one kudos to who restored it to perfection

[richardmorris]

That gentleman has a big $$ collection. Not a huge mopar fan but love these.Nice color on that too.They sure know how to appeal to the younger demographic.

[dannmarceau]

I was ten when they came out, I wanted one.

Totally awesome, Bob. My '70 RR is Burnt Orange in and out, Air Grabber, A833, 3.55 Sure Grip. Factory 383, now 440. One or two more bank robberies and I'll be able to put a Heemee in it.

[drakbar]

Cool Lou comes thru with another cool and muscular Mopar. What a perfect example of ICE age technology and styling. 👍👍

[Barry_Davis]

Clearly, the ‘70 Road Runner / GTX was the best looking of the first gen models. That front grill is definitely awesome.
