The only way to know if it is totally correct is if you post the fender tag info.

As far as was it possible. Yes.

I have a bench seat, radio delete 440 RR.

If you get it post pics

If the price is right I would buy it.

If it has the rubber carpets let me know if you want to upgrade to regular carpets.

I don't recall the production #'s off hand, but it was fairly low. Not a high $ value car if you're looking for something to make a profit on. They make great street cars but are not up there on the $ scale.

biggest problem is finding parts, 1/4 panels the worst, if in good shape, buy it

360 with 4 speed in 1974 would be 1 of 347 built.

If the price was right, I'd buy it quick.

I have a 318 3 speed manual trans road runner that only 772 were made of.

That being said, I really like '73/74 roadrunners

I really like those year Road Runners and the 4 speed, 360 is a one year deal in a Road RUnner.

So long as the OP doesn't confuse that for value. I've seen a few restored 73-74 RR with the owners trying to sell them for 20-25k with no luck. I like my car and have a lot of fun with it but these years of RR's aren't premium sellers. If you accept that upfront, you're good to go!

Did you intend that '74 is the only year for a 360-4bbl & 4-spd in a Road Runner? IS IT?

Well you must be the man who has the car I always hear about. My car was originally Winchester Grey with a black stripe but the previous owner did all the body and paint and I had no say in color, I just added the stripe to compliment the black. Anyways every large Mopar show I take the car to someone says hey did that car come from North Carolina? I had one guy crawl all over it at the Nats one year swearing it was a car he restored 10 years ago. I politely informed him it was not that I had spent the last three months assembling the car from boxes in the trunk. One good thing about these cars is if you find one in good shape restoring it will be dirt cheap. I have less than $9000 total including the $3200 I paid for the car. The junk yard is your friend.
