This is a very nicely restored factory Six-Pack Road Runner with all the right options. Finished in Driver quality B-5 Blue with the Bright Blue interior, this is the muscle car that turns heads everywhere. Definitely one of the most recognizable models of the entire muscle car era, it was made even more famous from the wildly popular Warner Bros. Road Runner Cartoon Series. Elevating this particular example's investment-grade option list are the legendary 440 Six-Pack engine, which is perfectly matched with the Hurst Pistol Grip shifted 4-Speed and coupled to the bulletproof Dana 60 rear axle.
There are many good reasons why the Six-Pack Mopars are some of the most sought-after collector cars. They are among the best-driving yet one of the quickest and fastest cars of the era. That's because the Chrysler engineers set out to make a very powerful yet durable engine with highly tractable driving characteristics. They started with a forged crankshaft, and developed extra-wide forged connecting rods exclusively for the 1970-71 Six-Pack engines. Also included were open chamber heads with Hemi valve springs. It's all topped off by three Holley 2300-series two-barrel carburetors matched to an Edelbrock manifold with equal-length runners. The masterstroke of engineering lies in the carburetors and linkage, which allows the car to be driven moderately and smoothly on the center two-barrel carburetor while the outboard carburetors lie in wait, opening on demand. With a total 1200 CFM, when you ask the outboard carbs to open, hold on because they open simultaneously in sync with the center carb to unleash an instant and brutal response!
Chrysler engineered the Six-Pack cars for drag-strip domination; and countless records prove they were highly successful in doing so. Those engineers were drag racers themselves, and spent countless hours testing and refining to extract maximum performance. As a result, the Six-Pack cars were a complete package. They featured Chrysler's strongest transmission, as well as suspension and cooling mods, along with the virtually unbreakable Dana 60 rear axle option. That's the same rear axle that the nitromethane dragsters of the day used, and the Mopar 440 Six Pack and Hemi's were the only high-performance car of the muscle car-era to have the Dana 60 as a factory option.
Drivability. Record-setting performance. World-famous name recognition. Industry-leading engineering. There are all elements that can make a car highly collectible. Combine them all in one package that has show-stopping looks in the very popular B-5 Blue and a great option combo and you have a solid winner. This is that car.
