This 1969 Plymouth Road Runner Convertible is an exceptionally rare, numbers-matching muscle car, representing one of just 2,128 convertibles built for the 1969 model year. Documented by Galen’s Registry, it is a 1-of-1 combination featuring a factory 383 HP engine, an A-833 4-speed manual transmission, and factory air conditioning. This highly unique Mopar retains its striking original combination of a Limelight Metallic Green exterior over a white vinyl interior.
