David/// I could PIN AND SLAM PEOPLE INTO THE BACK SEAT WITH MY 69!!!! My Girlfriend(WHO BECAME MY WIFE)LEARNED FAST TO GET OFF THE CONSOLE AND INTO HER SEAT,OR SHE'D WIND UP IN THE BACKSEAT!!!!
Same just a few years later. Exact same experience. Dark green GTX, 440 6 pack and a 4 speed. Wooo! What a ride. I think he bought it for about a 1000 bucks. Haha. Cheap like borscht. Good times.
This is hard to look at for 62 year old man...I feel. I feel...KINDA EXCITED!!!! We had 1 guy in highschool with one of these,,1974...I had 71 Mach I we had cars then that were really MACHINES!!!!
Wow, that's my car. When I bought the car in January it had bucket seats and a center console, but 5 years ago it had a bench seat with center cushion.
Had a 1970 roadrunner was the best handling car prob my favorite car wen I had muscle cars or could afford it mine was a vitamin c orange with a 440 postal grip 4 speed had a lot of fun running the cops back in 1980 that car would go had the cops after me a few times could not even get close to me and all they had was them old 350 caprice this is in Oshawa ont so the cops back then run gm now they run chargers lots of fun your car brings back memories it’s a beautiful car would love to own it
Jeff Leblanc someone must have put a 440 in it. 70 roadrunner did not come with 440 4 barrel. Only engine options were standard 383,440 six barrel and 426 HEMI.
Beautiful car. Auto on column is acceptable because the GTX was supposed to be a more "refined" muscle car. A muscle car for the successful businessman/woman.
American cars from 20s till the 80s had it most beautifully designed. It's a great feeling to look at these automobiles. Government need to get off the back of the car industries. Need serious revolution to change the making of American cars. Badass is the word.
BEST MUSCLE CAR EVER poor showin lets see hear motor see some rubber burin have a someone filmin it firin off da line i had one in high schol 74 never lost
My dad had one of these but his was a 1969 440. Dual 4 barrels 4.10 rear end it ran 12’s on slicks back In the day. The one car I wish my family had kept.
My first car was a 1970 GTX I bought it in November 1969 440 automatic plum crazy black interior. I was on top of the world I kept it 17 months and traded it in for a 1971 dodge challenger plum crazy black interior 440 6 pack only thing I did to it put crager. mags on traction bars and hijacker shocks it was a beast
There were few cars from the muscle car era that had the street creds of the GTX! Seemingly everybody knew of one that would just annihilate anything opposing it! Very nice car but like many here not feeling the column shifted Torqueflite! I had a '71 340 Demon with column shift, back in the day, hated it but the car was outstanding!!!
@@gastonave I had a 78 400 4 speed trans am that I bought at 16 in 1986 for $1200.00 I wrecked it unfortunately and looked at numerous old muscle cars that were going for nothing but at the time my mother "rip" volunteered to co sign on me a 1986 Thunderbird turbo coupe 5 speed which was a demo I cant recall exactly how much it was 9000-10000 somewhere in there and of course I jumped on it not thinking that 30 years later it would be rotting away in a scrapyard while the split bumper Camaro, hemis, 442s, grand sports, cosworth Vegas that were being given away in favor of power windows and air would be worth a fortune today.
Could've had one for about $5000 in 1995. It was solid and needed a repaint, but didn't have the funds.Too bad I couldn't see what these cars are worth now back then!!!
Yup.Never too late. I bought my 69 Roadrunner for $1300 back in 1995, and STILL have it! Built 440/Hemi-4 spd. And it is RR#4. Am going to the end with it.....
For all you people complaining about the column shift, there was an article about 20 years ago about a 1970 HEMI CUDA that was also column shift with bench seat. They don't call it "road head" for nothing!!!
Most beautiful year and model ever made. What a body style. Only thing I dislike is bench seats and column shifter why Chrysler ever even offered these premium muscle cars with those two horrors is beyond me. Almost as bad as a luggage rack on the back of a 70 427 or 454 corvette.
My buddy in high school had exactly the same car in Hemi Orange... 440-4barrel hemi hard shift 727 Torque Flight built by Ray Christian out of Grove City! :-)
stripervince1 Yup walking up to it I woulda had a hard on to end all hard ons TILL I LOOKED INSIDE.COME ON GUYS A GRANNY BENCH SEAT AND A AUTO /COLUMB SHIFT IN THAT BEAST. YOU JUST NEUTERED THAT BAD ASS CAR.
stripervince1 I ordered a new roadrunner in 1970, I was 18, I loaded it with performance options, but spec’d column shift and bench. I was dating back then.
Ms. Sonshine Yeah I do too.There is nothing Id love to have in my garage more than a set of boss mustangs.A grabber orange 302 and a grabber blue 429 right nevt to my Candy apple red 32 duece 5 window with 427 fe ford motor and top laoder 4 spd.Dreaming never hurt anyone.
I had a 70' Road Runner back in the day. I wish I still owned it! Did I see an Air Grabber on the hood? Would have liked to have seen it in operation. Beautiful car.
My parents bought one off show room 69 gtx in Waukegan, IL.,my brother got it when he got his driving licence,he sold to some one up both for 600 I think, blue,white vinyl top auto in floor 440
Style-wise, this thing is a Ferrari compared to the Honda's and all the other cookie cutter crap on the road today. EDIT: and room enough to do the horizontal mambo in the backseat, believe that!!
Sad though. my Honda Accord will do a 150mph and leave that thing in the dust. But power-wise that Mopar could drag that Honda around like a little paper bag
That engine needs some work missing on the ramp-up. That's why you did not stomp it you know the hesitation would be heard. If I had to guess those sorry ass AFB carbs.
Not "lazer" straight. That's why you're filming under trees. I saw puckers and ripples at the right angles. Rear bumper ? Hangin low. Nice color though. Still a cool car. Sombody will want an automatic. There's a driver for every car.
That's a nice way of putting it, but not quite true. Road Runner is actually the low-cost version of the GTX. The GTX came out in 1967. The Road Runner came out in 1968.
What a beautiful offering from Plymouth. A bit different than today's minivans and anything else they've done in the last several decades or so. However driving something that nice has got to be like living on eggshells due to the horrible driving abilities of others on the road that want to hit you in with a car like that I'm sure everybody's aiming for it subconsciously. And being in a parking lot is probably the most dangerous place of all for a car like that. That's the only thing I don't like about a high-performance badass cars is the risk of damage due to some prick that doesn't care or doesn't know what the fuck is doing to such a classic work of art. They sure as hell don't make them like this anymore. Long gone are other muscle cars of the 50's,60s and 70s
One of the best body styles to ever come out of Chrysler Corporation
YES IT WAS!!!!
I owned a 69 GTX, what a monster to drive. Some ofmy best times were in this car. Brand new was only $3,400 & gas was only 34 cent a gal.
Quality with a nice economy!
Old Skool was the best!!!
@@geraldboykin6159 *is best
@@MartyKay :By gone era of raw mechanics!
mustve been nice. Now for this quality today Id have to pick up a small mortgage. Neat.
Stunning! Well stacked. Love the paint, everything is beautiful.⭐️🏆⭐️❤️😉😎🐦
The Zenith of American muscle cars and the best example of an iconic automobile...excellent condition very nice 🤩!!!
My friend had a GTX in the mid 70's with a pistol grip 4 spd. He took me for a white knuckle ride I will never forget. Awesome car 👍

Beautiful...column shifter is a drag, but easy to forget once it fires up...
Back when cars still had some personality.
Can't wait for me and my dad to get ours running because we can finally show it off
This is hard to look at for 62 year old man...I feel. I feel...KINDA EXCITED!!!! We had 1 guy in highschool with one of these,,1974...I had 71 Mach I we had cars then that were really MACHINES!!!!
I love the GTX that's my all time favorite Mopar
mopar backwards is BAD-ASS !!!
Beautiful color, beautiful machine.
I cant believe a car looks this good !!
Beautiful job 👍🇨🇦 Had 70 Runner brought back memories Thanks ✌️
BEAUTIFUL GTX!!!! I owned a 69 and a 71,WISH THAT I STILL HAD THEM!!!!!
So sweet! Used to have a '69 Super Bee so this brings back some memories.
The 1970 model year was the absolute best looking year of the GTX AND ROADRUNNER. my next favorite is the 1972 Plymouth GTX AND ROADRUNNER
Totally agree. (At least as to 1970.) Best looking year model by far.
Hmm, I'm a 68 roadrunner fan.
What a gorgeous color ,roadrunner and GTX, i had the more square one,i think was a Plymouth gtx 1967 in red!
Wow, that's my car. When I bought the car in January it had bucket seats and a center console, but 5 years ago it had a bench seat with center cushion.

That's right. (Although I still think a floor shift and bucket seats would've been more appropriate for a such a high performance car.)
A lot of engine for a girl to have under her right foot. Anything bigger than a 340.
Love the color, Nice video and you got my thumbs up.
Great color combo, GTX is a little classier and the color makes it that much more
Cool,never seen that nice tan interior with the bench seat,nice cruiser with your girl sitting next to you.

I'll take the Road Runner for '70 and the GTX for '69 and '68! The color on this GTX is insane. Love it.

Because it has a column shift and bench seat it was not considered a sports car so the insurance was half the price.
Man i was wondering about that, strange equipment for a performance model.
Where do people come up with these fairytales?
Sweet Jesus this baby is gorgeous!!!

1970, the year I was born. I love the color of this car.
One of my favs .

A loaf of bread was a nickel in 1932 and now look at the price! if only I'd have kept some.
Awesome looking classic Mopar! Wish it was in my driveway!
Holy shit!!!! That rear bumper gap is like the grand canyon!!!
First thing I noticed. It looks HORRIBLE!
Drivers door sure is close to the quarter panel near the top too. Still a beautiful car.
Fit and finish was disappointing on the Mopars of the 70's, they made up for it in power.
@@rickg.5171 Not my '68 GTX. A disappointment in all areas.
Now THAT is where it's at.
That is one Mopar I was not able to get when I was young very nice and that was the style I wanted o well still have tie very nice
a car video....and the guy doesn't show us the engine. what is wrong with this clown?
And he didn't warm up the engine although he'd probably say he did off camera. Keep these idiots away from valuable classics
Beautiful car!

I owned several Chrysler Hi Performance vehicles that had a column shift
Nothing wrong with a column shift

I own two 1970 Dodge Challengers, One a 440 RT SE small back window car , One a HEMI car. Yea man.
“Got it up to 60 mph. No problem.”
Lol...I was smiling at that one, too.
mopar or no car. livn the mopar life one day at a time😎😎
Wow, it goes 60 ? I'm, surprised you didn't have every cop on the force arresting you over that high rate of speed.
love the car.
Beautiful little thing👍👌😍❤❤❤❤
Wow I think it looks as good as the Charger! Maybe better
Sweet car!! No engine pics? 🤔 I think he said "we'll get it up to speed " Did I mention he's said we'll get it up to speed? twice! 👍
Awesome I love American muscle!
Now that's a muscle car

Would have cherished one of those as my first car.

Oh oh oh.... Car is amazing. But that column shifter should be illegal. I almost died when I saw that. Absolute deal killer

I am so glad I read this comment before I started falling in love with this car.
This might as well be a Satellite wagon with a bench seat . NEXT!
This situation is like dating a chic until the pants come off u see a swinging penis!
Nice paint!
The GTX was my favorite Chrysler product muscle car but I don't think they looked this good new. Wow, what a car.
Almost perfect , except for the on the column auto .
I couldn't believe it was on,the column.
Honestly. I don't understand people buying a car like a Mustang GT with an automatic transmission.
Thank you.
