That car is stunning. I just do not understand why some do not see the value of these cool different cars. I understand folks would not live in a home setup like 1970 but I would.
STOP POTATO HATE!

From the ad...The 8,140 miles on this 1970 Plymouth Road Runner’s odometer are original, according to the seller, and it’s a lightweight, sparsely equipped 383 model with manual steering and brakes, a bench seat, and no radio. The seller is the car’s second registered owner, and he describes it as "numbers matching," providing a photo of the partial VIN on the engine as documentation. The original owner reportedly sold it to a restorer who worked with a classic car dealer to refurbish the classic Mopar muscle car. “When restored the car was disassembled and put on a rotisserie,” says the seller, adding it starts and runs “perfectly.” The seller purchased the car from the classic car dealer in 2020.
I am calling BS on the mileage claim. It is diffidently not the most describable color on the outside, but I do like the interior color.
I am guessing the the reserve is well north of $50,000.

8k miles needed a full resto? Done to an average level? Guys kill for original cars. Major mistake to do such. Or the typical bs sales job. Show me something to make me believe what you are saying. Where are the before pics? 2020 I think was a year when you could buy a memory card for like 8 bucks.
Plus add air shocks to your low mile ride. SMH.
I want my fair share

Way to many red flags and changes to a "8000" mile car.
A color change would do a lot for it.
I had a white 69, but it was a bright white, not the sand pebble beige or what ever color this one is.

Car has had full top to bottom resto. Lacking OE detail and parts. Even the dash vin plate was painted over (decal not put back on).
Original 3 spd manual car, says in ad. Original trans goes with car.
Whatever the mileage claim, it’s is fairly irrelevant now.
The motor vin stamp pictures appear pre resto.

I can appreciate pretty much any weird factory combo even if I find the combo unappealing or downright ugly.

Love it! I prefer a honest car returned to mostly original. They don't all have to be Hemi Orange or Sublime Don't care about mileage claims on restored cars, its irrelevant
Great entry level car for someone just getting into the hobby. Will be interesting to see where what we think of as an Entry Level car ends up in todays B-body market. My guess its still pretty far off from the reserve. Color aside, its still a nice 70 Roadrunner. Wouldn't hurt my feelings to see it in my garage, but price decides. Great buy at 28K. Does it go to 50?
