Modded 1960 Plymouth Suburban
Street Legal TV located this very cool Plymouth Suburban on Craigslist. A plain Jane wagon from a distance, the owner took a very low mileage (44,000 miles!), “no option”, 440 powered wagon and added a tasteful list of go-fast goodies. Find the Craigslist ad here. More pics after the jump!
What Road Runners Are Made Of
Here’s an illustration that Hot Rod Magazine used in their review of a 1968 Plymouth Road Runner in their November 1967 issue. Back then Editor Eric Dahlquist wrote:
“And that, pal, is what Road Runners are made of. It’s a supercar in every sense of the term but one—price. That’s why you’re going to love it. The accessories, a very few, like the Hemi, are there, but the basic package will blow the doors off almost anything in the asphalt jungle, and some of those cats cost a grand more. You can do a lot with that extra thousand dollars.”
Pretty cool, huh? Via Hot Rod

1968 Hemi Road Runner Survivor
“All go, no show” is a fitting description for this plain jane Road Runner coupe (unless you rightly consider Hemi badging as a “show” item). A two-owner car, it has been with owner number two since 1975 and is still mostly a survivor car. This one is a driver. Find more info on this rare bird at Mopar Max Magazine.
