* - for purely nostaligic reasons some day I would love to have another Plymouth that most folks would not even begin to think of as a "dream car". A Volare based Road Runner( 1976-1980 ). Don't laugh now. I had one in high school( 1976 )and it was a really cool car. I think it would make a great daily driver and is not something you see much anymore.
I liked the appearance stuff better on the 1979-1980 models than the 76-78 models. I liked the 76 model only one piece rear spoiler better than the 77-80 3 pieces but other than that give me a 79-80 over the earlier ones. I really would like one of the Black w/ silver or gold graphics( see below ). If I could get one with the optional T-Roof as well that would be a bonus. Would have to have the buckets and floor shifter vs a bench and colum like my 76 too.
I would definitely upgrade the engine as the 318 and 360 offerings were pretty weak( as were most engines in that time frame from all mfg's ). I would either throw a 340 in or maybe even a modern 5.7L HEMI and really suprise folks. I would get a 727 out of a crusier( I did this in my 76 )to replace the stock 904 which was weak. I would also get a 8 1/4 posi rear end( my 76 had this )if it didn't have one already. Hopefully I could find one in tact with all of the spoilers, louvers, wheel well flares, etc... as finding those pieces is almost impossible now and they are very $$$. The graphics are not hard but that hard parts = OY!
Not easy to find these anymore. IF you do find one, and especially one in good shape, be prepared to spend a LOT for it.
This is a 79 stock photo out of the sales brochure. Not great quality but shows what I mean. I prefered the silver to the gold stripe kit but would take either...
