    I love the way it looks, it's the perfect touch of modern and classic. Modern style rims but still has sidewall. Led lights that look so good. The fact that he kept the old motor and trans. Love it. It's awesome.

    That style of Roadrunner has such a unique look. Old Chargers and Challengers are awesome, but I'd pick the '71 Roadrunner over both of those.
