Why is that a dream? 4 SPD HEMI CONVERTIBLE. As long as the frame is not rotted away . A 67 corvette 427 435 convert is worth more when they made so many why is the gtx a dream for 100k Because there are probably 60 Corvette buyers for every 1 GTX buyer out there in the collector car world.

most of them have been restored I believe the Q5 Road Runner 'vert at Graveyard Carz was one of them EE1 - '68 Coronet A4 - '69 RR Q5 - '69 RR B5/B7? - '69 GTX others? I remember seeing this Q5 Hemi Road Runner convertible, back in the late 90s. It was a complete running car in the same condition as it is in the picture you posted. The car was at the Papas Dodge Mopar show at Limerock Raceway in Connecticut. When the owner l left the show, I followed him out in my 70 Charger R/T SE. I remember telling my wife when we were behind that car, that it was the only 69 Hemi Road Runner convertible I had ever seen in person.

that's another green HEMI RR 'vert - the "can opener" has a tan bucket seat interior I remember when this car was in Carlisle under the roof. I think it had just came out of a restoration. The air grabber did not have the boot in it. When my friend (who owns 2 69 Hemi B Body's) and I were discussing it when the guy who restored the car came over and they discussed that topic.... I just stayed out of it and admired the car. I owned the exact same car and color combination at the time... Except mine was a 383 4 speed. Its a nice car.

Do you guys remember Dave Mulmuski? (spelling) out of MA years ago (early 1990's) had about six 68-69 Hemi B-Boby rags for sale for $25K each? They were mostly rollers if I remember right. He listed them in Hemmings every month. I was a struggling college kid with no money yet I dreamed of buying one of those shells. I remember saying to myself.. "Those cars will be worth double that in a few years"... LOL. Pretty sure I don't remember thinking they would be worth 200K... I remember those ads and like you had no cash at the time. Last one I remember was a 68 coronet r/t auto silver on red supposedly one of 8 ad said it was rough and I remember 12500 as the price. Often wonder where that one ended up

I talked to someone that advertised a 70 Hemi Runner ragtop that was advertised a couple of years ago. It was purple and was not the Canadian one from Sask. I cannot remember what he did not have or show but I had my doubts it was real. Could have been the fender tag now that I looked.

The Q5 Hemi Runner is a D32 automatic car not a 4-speed. It was a condition #4 driver in 2000 when it was for sale on Heminet for roughly 90k $ IIRC.
The 69 RT vert in Q5 didn't have its matching engine anymore and was partly disassembled
Carsten The 69 RT was very rough as were all the cars that Dave M had, it was also born with a black gut not white which it now has.
