1974 Roadrunner Walk Around

[@jamiegarrett3869]

That Mopar is a bloody beast. Bet its fast cause its cool

[@joemancini3258]

Really nice. love 70s interiors

[@harryjohnson8605]

Nice RR. Well maintained car. Value will go crazy in the future

[@KetchLambier]

One of my faves. 73 and 74 440s were not bad performers at all. A little know how and you could have the same performance as the pre 1971s. This is a sweet example u have!

[@RFKFANTS67]

Very sweet car! Don't ever sell that. Envious, Enjoy the ride

[@808TheDuck]

Nice RR! Cool 😎 interior!

[@scotthoffman5070]

Love the color combo, clean engine bay, we have a 73 roadrunner 340 car TX9 from 1986.

[@troyvalleau1124]

Very nice 1974 Roadrunner! Had two 1974’s one brown with black stripes and one grey with red stripes. Wish I has them now.

[@MikeJBlues]

Beautiful car, love the 74

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

Me too! 73 and 74 looks awesome! ❤

[@bitraeger1481]

Nice keep up the passion

[@pdiz]

Nice! I have a '73 Mist Green RR w/ white stripes with a 400/4-speed with the buddy seat, white and black interior. You have a very unusual interior. The plush carpet seemed very unusual, but I guess with these later RRs, you see all sorts of interesting combinations.

[@daveowens9849]

Love the red plaid interior... a lot of people don't know that was a factory option in 74. I like the blackout hood. Nice touch. Did it come from factory without the bumper guards? And as far as the shag carpet goes, back in 75 when I was 18, I changed out my black carpet for a bronze shag carpet in my 73 Bronze Road Runner. And in my basement, I bought a replacement carpet for my Road Runner project in the color bronze, and taking another look at it, it's a little deeper than I remember. But, we all made modifications to our cars back then. While I usually talk about factory, none of us were keeping it factory. Inherit a 318 engine and stick a 340 camshaft in, 340 headers, and you've got a nice engine! And your rallye dash is in great shape. Even the argent silver accent is still there! Question: why don't you have the Road Runner emblem on the far right side of the trunk lid? Inquiring mind wants to know! lol. Love the red and white combination. Nice car!

[@Nelsons-Garage]

Thanks, The bumper guards where the chrome with the black rubber bumper. I didn’t like the look with them on, but I still have them. As far as the roadrunner on the deck lid, I just never put it back on after I re-painted it. I do have it. At some point I will go through the car again and straighten all of that stuff out.

[@anthonybeno1481]

I had a 73 340 in Mojave Tan with a white stripe...matching interior.....wish I had never sold it

[@kipbrown1549]

Very nice ///////

[@guidosarducci3047]

Was cruising you tube and stumbled across your RR. I think you said u had this car 82' was it? Funny how tastes change over the years. In 84' someone offered to give me a 71'GTX if I would just haul it away ( two blocks from my home - I could've pushed it home) but at that time I thought this body style was so ugly and 440's were a dime a dozen back then - so I turned it down. It was clean and straight w/nice fat centerlines and a 440. Now I own a 72' Satellite and it's one of my favorites. Go figure - LOL Good post - Very clean RR. I especially like the wireless engine bay and love the seats. I'm going to see your channel to see how you like that overdrive trans mission. I enjoyed this post.

[@Nelsons-Garage]

Thanks, Your right, back then i was picking up car cheap, just wish i was able to keep them all. this car was my first, so i kept it. I like the overdrive but haven't driven the RR much since. it is put away as i build my '37pu. I do have the same trans in my '65 Belvedere and really like it. I think there is a video of driving that car on my channel.

[@guidosarducci3047]

@@Nelsons-Garage Yeah man, I saw it and your 37' build is coming along nicely. It looks killer man.

[@floydthompson8668]

Very nice!

[@cmscms123456]

0:43 coupe? No window post makes it a 'coupe' I have a 74 Plymouth Satellite, and the rear windows do roll down. that is a coupe also

[@Nelsons-Garage]

I believe that would be a hardtop ( rear windows roll down)

[@randyman828]

Not bad. 318 ?

[@Nelsons-Garage]

Was originally, which I still have. Now it has a 340 from a ‘69 Dart

[@bobcombs9685]

Satellite steering wheel?

[@Nelsons-Garage]

That steering wheel was on the roadrunner, the tuff wheel was an option.

[@RandyCrum-bq3cp]

yea he's right iam no mark worman ; but that steering wheel and dash are tall tell clone sign;s ,can i see your vin , i had silver and red in hi school and family put the hex on it and after i found where dad hid the key ,lasted three runs before hex and hp took out clutch' treaded for 1967 charger after trans to work. if it was not for hex i might not be here to say have owned satilite and another r r both great cars R M vin code and R H and i would give my left ... . shit old ladys in room...you know what i mean..

[@MikeJBlues]

Did this happen to come from missouri 🤔?

[@Nelsons-Garage]

Not that I know of, I believe it was originally from Northern Illinois, that’s where I purchased it from.

[@MikeJBlues]

@@Nelsons-Garage cool car, when you mentioned a tunnel ram I thought it might be an old buddies car from high-school days 77

[@Nelsons-Garage]

@@MikeJBlues it was close to original when I purchased it in 1983, I put a tunnel Ram on and showed it in the late ‘90s into the early 2000’s.

[@bolt4694]

Non stock bumpers.

[@Nelsons-Garage]

Stock Bumpers with the bumper guards removed

[@pdiz]

Looks stock to me minus the oversized federally mandated bumper guards. Good job using a plug on the holes where they were, I did the same thing.
