Looking at the SPD and colors, I'm wondering if it might be one of the B5 show car convertibles Chrysler built.
I thought those were all N96 & D21 cars, but I could be wrong.

The seat medallion locations are silly, carpet color is incorrect, etc; but it's apparently more of a street rod now, rather than a correct restoration.

One of the invoices mentions pulling a hemi. Nice car. I’m betting it doesn’t sell.

I have never seen an engine painted that color... looks like it's plum or a weird shade of purple?

That's just one of the things I was referring to when I said "street rod".
It's not for those of us who like originality or accurate restorations, but more for the cruiser & street rod guys, I think.

Yup...if I were to own this Road Runner, it would have to be completely stock. Since it is a car with low production #s, and fairly rare.

as nice as it looks, why wasn't a few bucks spent on new door handles, window cranks, and arm rest bases ?
also, it mentions it has a blue top, then the description states it has a white top ??
however, i didn't look at the 185+ extra pictures.
if the price doesn't jump drastically in the last few minutes, and it sells, it would be a nice ride at a good buy in price.

It’s a white top and a blue boot.

The small stuff is why I think it won’t sell. It’s a nice car that needs tlc to be all that it can be.
