How many Q5 1969 Hemi Roadrunners?

My buddy has a 69 Hemi Roadrunner post car (RM21). I've not seen or heard about any other Q5 hemis. Is there any way of knowing how many were produced?

AFAIK there are NO factory 1969 production numbers for colors.

with over 800 HEMI Road Runners for '69,
I'd doubt only one example of any desirable STANDARD color (incl. Omaha orange, rallye green, Bahama yellow, R4, K2) was built.

of the 57 HEMI Road Runners that I have fender tag info on - two are Q5

I currently have none in: B3, F3, L1, T7 rallye green, Bahama yellow, Petty blue

Thanks Dan. I didn't know that F3 or Petty blue was available in 1969.

officially it was "corporate blue" think Chrysler/Plymouth signs & they do exist
(I'm sure RP running a Ford in NASCAR for '69 lessened their numbers)
..... there are a few F3 Road Runners out there, too

My friend just sold an F5 Hemi post coupe that had a black bench seat interior and a 4 speed.

I have 6 Hemi RR 69 Q5 cars in my spreadsheet. Could you send me the fender tag of your buddies car to see if I have it documented yet?

There's a local guy that has a Bahama Yellow 69 Hemi Road Runner that he bought new named Darrell.
He ordered the car new and didn't realize what Bahama Yellow actually looked like.
He accepted the car anyway.

About 2001 he sold off the original engine (dumb move IMO) when he put a 528 crate Hemi in the car when he decided to go racing.
He had a roll cage installed at the same time.

The car will eventually be handed down to his kids (actually they want it).

Are you serious!!! That brought a tear to my eyes.

Hi Dan,

check this one out it seems to be F3 green

I recently saw an episode of Graveyard Carz where they are restoring
a '69 Hemi Road Runner CONVERTIBLE automatic in Q5 seafoam.. original color, they are saying it is a 1 of 1 car.

Saying any Hemi ragtop is a 1 of 1 car is just dumbassery.

What would you expect from GYC

Diego....I was just reporting on what THEY said on their show....if you
wanna make stupid ass comments, and be a child about it, hey great!
Makes no difference to me. Besides, how many Q5 Hemi ragtop '69 Road Runners have YOU seen out in the world lately?

No kidding.



Do you work for GYC?

Everything is a 1 of 1 car these days......

I remember 40 years ago when these were just all stupid used cars sitting on used car lots for $1000 each!

Yep but everyone wants to say their car is 1 of 1

THERE ALL 1 OF 1

Ok great...everybody here says ALL CARS these days are 1 of 1...which
is just a ridiculous statement. So the question is: how many Q5 426 HEMI
1969 Road Runner automatic convertibles were built? Or better yet...
how many are left in one piece,and not junked... can any of you experts answer that?

there are 12 known built 1969 HEMI Road Runner convertibles:
2 transmission choices
19 "normal" exterior choices & a number of common "special" colors
12 interior choices
&
piles of OPTIONAL equipment

with only 12 RM27J9G cars, do you have to get past paint to be "1 of 1"? know of any "1 of 2"?

how far down an OPTION list will someone go to prove their car is 1 of 1?

I guess two of the 4-speed RM27J9G cars are "F8" (wrong - one is F5, the other F8)
one with F5/M6X the other with F8/M6T - OH the HORROR of the common car!!

This person above wrote: "of the 57 HEMI Road Runners I have fender tag info on...two are Q5". That stands to reason 1 is possibly a hardtop, and the other could very likely be the Hemi convertible that GYC is restoring. Which could make that car the ONLY Q5 HEMI CONVERTIBLE 1969 Road Runner manufactured in 1969 in that particular combo.

Dan 12 is that counting the rest of the world or just US sold car. Was there any Export 1969 Hemi Convertible Road Runners. 2 sold new in Canada.

Q5 Hemi Runners:
There sold one on ebay.com lately. Steering column auto car
Another one will be auctioned soon at Mecum. It is listed on Hemmingss currently IIRC
Another one lived in the LA area and belonged to Kenn F.

Just quickly out of my head

1969 HEMI Road Runner convertibles per GG: RM27J9G
6 = US spec. automatics (Q5, Y2)
4 = US spec. 4-speed (F5, F8)
2 = CANADA spec

I don't have full fender tag or b'cast sheet info for any of them

the above listed totals was for less than 10% of production - I currently have organized data of the following Q5 HEMI Road Runners

4 - coupes (RM21J9 - Q5)
2 - hardtops (RM23J9 - Q5)
1 - convertible (RM27J9 - Q5)

How many q5 hemi super bees? I own a hardtop automatic column shift with bucket seats and radio and stripe delete. Was used as a police car when new.

I remember it when it was on ebay 10-12 years ago for 55k IIRC.
I had 69 Hemi Bee in Q5, too. Hardtop automatic with 4,10 Dana.
Still lives in Europe

I keep checking back on this thread hoping someone will post some pictures of these bad boys. My 69 is Q5 but, it's just a lowly 383 car.

The more accurate description would have been 1 of 6 automatics.
This car will be at the Spring Fling Woodley Park Van Nuys CA April 8
Come out and see the restoration by Graveyard Carz.

You added 5 in 5 months. These things must grow on trees ;-)

AhHa!..I rest my case! Thanks Dan for providing above info!

I saw this fine example this past October at the Fall Fling in Van Nuys (Los Angeles). I'm a little confused on the colors. The one on GYC seemed a lot more blue. Could it be the lighting? Which is this? Is it Q5? Is this the same car?

--JC

Same car.

TV can mess with certain colors.

That's why the Nash Bridges 71 cudas were that wierd school bus mustard yellow color

The pilot was shot with the cars in curious yellow. And it looked bad on TV. A club member worked in the "edit industry" and told us about it when it went down. They had to repaint the cars and re-shoot scenes. Julius in the club worked on them after that and a did few things during the run when the cars were primarily in Bay Area.

I think it may be the same as the one from GYC. On TV shots with interior lighting seemed too blue. But an shot outside from their website seemed right...

--JC

You're right.

Owner said it was the same car.

IIRC, that orange 69 rr is a Moparts members car, an A12.

And the 69 charger R/T in the background is R6 with bright red interior... stunning combo. Was in an episode of the new Jeremy Clarkson TV show that was looking for a charger.

FIRESTONES WRONG!

great car but it should have some Goodyear Polyglas redlines.
Not a big task considering the amount of money that has probably been spent

Carsten

Being you live in Vegas you probably got my tag at the MATS already. Mine is a 1 of 1 Its the only one I have LOL

It's the same car

with a couple exceptions, I've judged "B-BODY stock" every year at MATS since it started & there have been some spectacular B-bodies there!

That's it. Guess you got my fender tag info.

Beautiful Runner!

If you are referring to mine you helped me out on a couple of details. Thanks

Yes I am Bob!
