1970 Plymouth Rapid Transit System (commercial)

[@gumper1986]

Hey man the Duster was a true muscle car like any of the other ones on that commercial. Just because it didn't come with a big block option doesn't mean it couldn't pound a few heads. The Duster makes a great all around car due to it's light weight, compact style and good yet all business looks.

I love these old Plymouths .They were solid cars. Actually all of these cars from the 1960s and 1970s were the best. I wish they were built today.

[@rosenb37]

This commercial is for a sales promotion, not the Rapid Transit System. Also, the Superbird indeed was a part of the RTS - it is a Road Runner, after all.

[@EdWatts]

Yeah! A long time ago, I had a 1969 Sport Fury -- get this -- station wagon. The original engine was a 318 LA, but I swapped in a '69 440 -- "built to the hilt" as we used to say -- and put L60's on the front and N50's in the back. My kids absolutely loved riding around in that barge; it seemed like there was room to play soccer where the third seat folded down. Woodgrain sides, hood like the deck of an aircraft carrier, air conditioning, built Torqueflite, rims and tires...Oh, YEAH!

I had a 1970 Duster. Shocking Green Color, with a 3speed on the floor, slant 6. I love that car.

[@DoomiteAsh]

I can dig it, baby! Mopar freakin' RULES!

[@jinglejazz7537]

far out!!! Out of Sight!

[@andrewps84]

My dad had 3 Dusters I believe. It started with his second car (his first was a 65 Mustang which made him swear to never buy a Ford again); conversely, the Dusters made him fall in love with Chrysler products, and I still have that same love for them as well. RIP Plymouth; I still have 2 Plymouth vehicles in my possession, one I intend to keep the other I’ll probably sell.

Sport Fury... Most Killer Land Yacht EVER... Screams MOPAR!!!

[@LawrenceRoss1906]

The best part is when the guy says "dig this"!

[@PajamasandMore]

Awesome video!!

[@ThunderAppeal]

They had a Sport Fury?

[@motodude1]

I DIG it!!

[@MrFrankBullitt]

Cuda!

[@firehawk400]

@gqjohnny As an employee of a Chrysler Corp. dealer, I can't agree more.

[@fairfaxcat1312]

Lamentably, two of our KZbin commentators, “TrafficIT” and “obsureluzername,” chose to hold forth (in comments below) with entirely unnecessary explicit references.

[@ixelerate]

yea it was for SEMA...its not being sold at this years Barret Jackson

[@70Kenny]

I want to marry the sport Fury!

[@ManiaMusicChannel]

Plymouth had it, don't know how they messed it up

[@joh2]

There is someone that has had a 'one-off' "2008" Cuda built, based off the new Challenger - although it is badged as the less catchy "Chrysler Barracuda"...

[@fairfaxcat1312]

This is an advertisement. But it is not an advertisement promoting ridership for the local public transit system though it would be easy for the viewer to make that mistake. The idea is to get the customer to buy a car. The car the ad will ostensibly be selling to the buyer is a Plymouth or another automobile manufactured by the Chrysler Corporation. The more Chrysler automobiles the ad can get customers to buy the more money the motor company will make.

[@70fury3]

@steadfastcoward Cool well I'll see what a 360 stroked to a 408 will do soon in my 70 fury, Speed O Motive will be done soon...Should be a real fun car

[@JETZcorp]

I totally agree that 1970 was a great year for Mopar. However, the Buy American thing is a little shaky. For example, while Fords are built in China (ever wonder why they didn't go bankrupt?), Toyotas are built in America to a greater extent than any other automaker. I'm not saying that everyone should go buying Toyota, but it's a point you might want to ponder. Personally, I don't care where a car is built, as long as I like the car. That means Japan is out, Mopar and Porsche are in.

[@jmarti64]

yup

[@ZeeboLaywicker]

You can thank your gov't and the insurance companies for taking all the fun out of cars. The old days are never coming back, tho with a little ingenuity, they have the technology to put 400 horses under an affordable hood these days, but look at it this way; the engineers who desinged the musclecars are long retired, and the engineers who design today's stuff grew up having 1990 cavaliers as a first car..pretty hard to get worked up about performance if that's where your memories are from.

[@joh2]

Hmmm, with Chrysler reviving the Dodge Challenger, perhaps one day they could revive the Plymouth brand again - A Barracuda twin would be cool - Although if they were to do a modern day Duster, they would likely base it on the Avenger Platform (which i'm surprised Chrysler hasn't released a coupe variant for)...

[@chargermopar]

Chrysler needs to get its head out of the sand and build a new 'Cuda with the look and feel of the original car (as close as possible) and a new set of engines true to its heritage. Use some of the new high-tech engines and suspension technology but keep the old look. They will sell thousands!

[@CamaroAmx]

@The6000Sabre chrysler went from the most profitable car company to near bankrupt in 10 years. then 6 years later they nearly went under. thank you fiat for saving chrysler. don't f' it up like diamler and cerbrus.

[@HEMI440jsp]

Mopar Rules!!!!

[@trafficit]

Fuck, I Just had a Cargasm.

[@71plymouth.]

I dig it too. haha can't beat a Mopar.

[@AWFChris2007]

I understand why we have tuned our performance minded Detroit plants down, I just wish that instead of them telling us we have to accept it, that they instead let us choose what we want. Like maybe offer a line of cars meant to do what the 65 - 71 series of Mopars did as well as offering the newer more efficiant vehicles. It is communistic the way things are done these days.

[@70fury3]

Not a Rapid Transit comercial .. Isnt this Just a plymouth comercial??? ...

[@Scooter_Roundwell]

Whose name do you call out when you climax? For me, it's DUSTERRRRRR!!!!....zzzzzzz

[@ZeeboLaywicker]

whoops "designed" smile

[@bwild61]

Bingo! And guess what, those Japanese vehicles are not all that great!!
