There were 334 four speeds and 618 autos produced. Anyone? From what I remember, for $90. extra, you could get the six barrel option. Most opted for this. In 1971 the single 4 bbl. 440 wasn't even offered! End of today's Mopar lesson kiddies. Last edited by Kudakidd; 02/16/23 10:06 PM.

Was in decent shape and I never knew the low numbers or I might not of. Still got the 4 speed from it... offered a guy on here the rest of the parts from the car but never heard nothing so between the dumpster and metal recycle center its history. Friend has a B5 U code auto car. Last edited by Mr PotatoHead; 02/17/23 02:58 AM. STOP POTATO HATE!

It literally still has the ladder link rear suspension under the back of it, vintage stuff. Kayse can't keep up at all now. lol

It’s a project car but a nice rust free Texas car. It’s been off the road and in a friend’s garage since 1978. I bought it a couple of years ago.

I chased it from 1987 until being able to purchase it in 2016 from the original owner's family.

I prefer the b-body cars more because the seating was more comply, better weight balance and offered four times the trunk space.

I bought my first road runner from him and he put the money toward the 'cuda. I don't know how many white 'cudas there were around here, but I think this is where it ended up. 69 road runner A12 ex-racer 71 Duster w/ a 400 Shiny paint causes stress.

I bought It a few years ago from its second owner who purchased it in 1971. These pictures are from the day that I went to look it over. It was being kept at a storage unit.
