This is the Very First Production 1971 Hemi Road Runner Built!



Here is a very special opportunity for one lucky person to own this awesome looking, extremely rare and heavily documented numbers-matching 1971

Hemi Road Runner. Its complete history is known all the way back to the original owner and the Dealership that ordered it for their showroom display.

This exceptional Road Runner has always been very well cared for since new. Although it was an untouched virgin “Survivor” well into the '90's with

original paint and never having had any rust issues whatsoever, the new owner at the time had the car restored using all original NOS parts. After several

years of ownership he sold this car and his entire collection of cars and NOS parts to the Wellborn Museum where this Road Runner had called home 

until just a couple of years ago when obtained in a trade.     I’ve been collecting information on 1971 Hemi cars for many years now and I feel confident

making the statement that “ There are no more than 20 '71 model Hemi cars left in existence today with their original factory installed numbers matching

drivetrains, a matching Broadcast Sheet, the original Window Sticker, the original purchase contract, the original warranty documentation and complete

 ownership history back to the original selling dealership”. With all of what this car has going for it and 1971 being the last year of production for the

infamous 426 Hemi, this Hemi Road Runner is without a doubt an Investment Grade Collector Musclecar of the Highest Degree!


Let me add some additional information / perspective on why this car is so special. First of all, it’s a 1971 Hemi car, which in itself is extremely rare

without even breaking it down into individual models. Secondly, Plymouth only built 59 Hemi Road Runners in 1971 and this very car is the first one

to come off the assembly line.  All of the 1971 Hemi car production totals only 3.55% of all Hemi cars ever produced over an 8-year production run.

As hard as this might be to believe, I promise you it's true.  There were just over 11,070 426 Hemi powered cars built in the eight year span from

1964 to 1971 and less than 400 of them were '71 models. This means that ‘71 model Hemi cars are over 4 times rarer than 1970 model Hemi cars,

over 5 times rarer than the ‘69 models and over 6 times rarer than the ‘68 models. Furthermore, Plymouth, having built only 59 Hemi Road Runners

in 1971 means they are almost 3 times rarer than a ‘70 model Hemi Runner, almost 14 times rarer than a ‘69 Hemi Runner and a whopping 18 times

rarer than a ‘68 Hemi Runner. I’d say these facts definitely qualify the 1971 Hemi Road Runner as being extremely rare. Another interesting fact is

 that of the 11,070 plus 426 Hemi cars built over the eight year span from 1964 to 1971 with many of them being sold new in Canada there were less

than 25 of those Hemi cars actually built in Canada, of which this Road Runner is one of those.

  So again I say, here is a very special opportunity for some very lucky person to own an exceptionally rare and awesome looking numbers-matching

1971 Hemi Road Runner that also happens to be one of the very few appreciating investments that a proud owner can share with their family and friends.


Just remember this when buying Rare and Collectible Mopars: The car you're looking at today and want to think about until tomorrow, is the same

 car that someone else looked at yesterday and is going to buy today!  



I would be willing to consider partial Mopar trades for this car!



Vehicle condition



This Road Runner has always lived a very pampered and temperature controlled life since new and is one of the very few Hemi cars that runs and

drives like it should. Since the restoration of the car it has been driven very little and has always been well cared for and maintained.  

If you have any questions about the car, please give me a call at (405) 203-4441 or you can email me at: pentastarcars@cox.net



Terms & Conditions of Sale


This car is to be sold “AS IS” with no warranties expressed or implied. Again, as mentioned above, please ask any questions that I may not have touched on here.

Shipping and transportation of the vehicle will be the sole responsibility of the winning bidder. Seller also reserves the right to sell this Road Runner prior to

the auctions closing time due to it’s being also advertised elsewhere, unless the "Buy it Now" is met first.

Barrett-Jackson 2014: 1970 Plymouth Hemi Superbird passes half a million dollars

Sat, 18 Jan 2014

The Plymouth Superbird is one of those classic American cars from the muscle car era that has captured the imagination of all sorts of automotive enthusiasts long after its presence on roads and race tracks wore away. It's easy to see why. Where else but in the Swingin' Sixties and Seventies would a car leave the factory with an aerodynamics package that included a pointy beak and a rear spoiler that sat several feet above the rear deck?
The example you see above, which was born in 1970, is one of the finest Superbirds we've ever seen. Combine its complete restoration with its original 426 Hemi engine, and it's no surprise that it managed to bring in a cool half million dollars (plus 10 percent in fees) at Barrett-Jackson. See it yourself in our high-res image gallery above, and scroll down below for the official auction description.

'Blood Muscle' auction to sell impressive collection of ill-begotten classic cars

Wed, 30 Jul 2014

The old saying goes that if you can't do the time, don't do the crime. But being a criminal can involve more than just taking a trip to the big house; it can also mean losing possessions purchased from any ill-gotten gains. Still, one man's loss is another's gain, and if you're in Lodi, NJ, on September 12, you stand the chance to buy some of the ultimate muscle cars from the US Marshals in what is being gruesomely nicknamed the Blood Muscle auction.
The grisly moniker was earned because all of the vehicles belonged to the president of a blood testing company who is facing prison time for alleged bribery, according to Hemmings. After all, they are muscle cars bought with actual blood money. The seven-vehicle collection includes some of the ultimate muscle cars ever made, and the original buyer clearly had an eye for rarity.
This cornucopia of V8 power includes a teal 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 429, a 1967 Shelby GT500 Mustang, an orange 1970 Plymouth Superbird, a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS convertible and perhaps most prized of all - a trio of 1969 Yenko Chevys with a Chevelle, Nova and Camaro all represented. From the included photos, all of them look to be in fantastic condition.

SRT belatedly claims Plymouth Prowler as one of its own

Wed, 19 Dec 2012

Before Chrysler had Street and Racing Technology, it had Performance Vehicle Operations. What the two entities have in common, before SRT became its own brand, of course, is that each was created to take Chrysler and Dodge (and Plymouth, before it was unceremoniously killed off) vehicles to the next level of style and performance.
We'll leave the question of whether or not the old Plymouth (and later Chrysler) Prowler was ultimately a stylish, performance-oriented car to you, but the boys and girls currently leading the SRT charge at the Pentastar headquarters are keen to accept the retro-rod into the fold.
According to the automaker, all of SRT's current high-performance models owe a debt of gratitude to the old Prowler, due mostly to that car's use of lightweight bits and pieces and innovative construction techniques. If nothing else, the fact that the Prowler's frame is "the largest machined automotive part in history" is pretty cool. Read all the details here.
