Force Posted June 25, 2023 Posted June 25, 2023 (edited) MPC did a "what if" 1971 Plymouth Road Runner "Superbird". First issue from 1970-71 Second issue from the 80's Edited June 25, 2023 by Force
Daddyfink Posted June 25, 2023 Posted June 25, 2023 18 hours ago, Force said: MPC did a "what if" 1971 Plymouth Road Runner "Superbird". First issue from 1970-71 Second issue from the 80's From what I read in an old Mopar mag, Plymouth had started testing a winged 71 before the axe fell on the winged thing. MPC had access to the plans and this was the result. There was a photo of the wind tunnel model rolling around the internet for a while, but, I can't find it and the copy I had went away when I had a massive computer crash a few years ago. Maybe someone here has one. But yup, it was going to be real.
Force Posted June 26, 2023 Posted June 26, 2023 Yes. Here are a couple of pictures of both Dodge and Pymouth from 1971. first Dodge Plymouth And a what if Plymouth build And a what if Dodge build. 1 1

jjsipes Posted June 27, 2023 Posted June 27, 2023 I saw them years ago up at the Chrysler Nationals at Carlisle. Don't remember what year now but they looked pretty well put together.
Street Rod Posted June 27, 2023 Posted June 27, 2023 The green car in the first picture was featured in the Dec. 2008 issue of Mopar Action magazine. Here’s a few pics from the write up. (Mods, if this is against the rules please delete.) 1
