Still looking for a Marauder to handle my day to day duties but I drive these on the weekends.

I own the Monte SS and the Hurst. I share the Road Runner and Gran Sport with my pops. He doesn't drive them really so I put them through their paces. Hes since sold the black 77 vette and replaced it with a Red 98 C5.

The RoadRunner is the most fun to drive. the 440 6BBL rips but the Stage 1 is modded and a lil faster in the 1/4.

Of all of my past rides I miss my 69 Road Runner the most, followed by the 68 H/O.

The Plymouth Roadrunner is one of my all time favorite muscle cars. Your collection is stunning

The stage 1 is a real stage 1. #s matching driveline is long gone. The block is out of a 70riv. Its has a"hemi killer " cam, rear is a 12 bolt chevelle.

The road runner is originally a 383 4 speed. The car was restored in 1985. The motor is a real 691/2 440 six pack from a wrecked super bee. Even still have the original carbs and 69 only edelbrock alum intake (70 has an iron intake) also has the dana rear from the super bee. I wish it was a real A-12 car but its the next best thing. All a-12s left plymouth as 383 road runners. My dad bought the car in 1979 for $300. Its not a Barret jackson car but a nice reconditioned car. The body only has about 63k on it. The original 383 is still in our garage. No ps or pb...the front drums were swapped out for disc. When you drive this car you feel like you are driving it. Its a mans car.

You have the best of both worlds -old school muscle and 80's muscle with t-tops!!!!

Now you just need a Marauder and you would have the Trifecta!!!! Very nice cars.

Im the second owner on the hurst olds. It has 80k. Restored in 07-08. Was awarded a first place at the 09 oca nationals. Car got hit by a girl texting while driving. Car was repaired. Haggerty was AWESOME. They really took good care of me. Was awarded a Third place at a regional olds show in September. This is my baby, my pride and joy.

The SS was purchased in 01. I drove it daily for two years and i still take it to work on sunny days but now the 305 is tired. This summer shes getting a heart transplant and some minor things cleaned up ( weather strips, new nose , new hood) . Its still a nice cruiser.

Thanks for all the compliments guys. All these cars were purchased relatively cheap. The buick was restored in 05 and that was $$$. Buick a-body by far is the most expensive to restore. No catalog to just open and order parts. My father owns his own repair garage so lavor costs were 0.

I truly approve!

Not to 'jack your thread, I went a different route with my '68. I wanted mine to look like a toy. Here are a couple of pics:

Gorgeous! It really shows the body lines in that color. They get lost on our car with the B5 blue.

Marty,

Everything you own is a toy, including the "toy box" out back. This man is the innovator or the term "go big, or go home". Just sayin':D

Sweet collection!

Does the Hurst/Olds have that crazy 'Lightning Rod' floor shifter?

If so...need pix!!!

A co-worker of mine had one of those back in the mid 80s...I remember all of those shifters sticking up out of the console!!

Very nice collection. My wife has a really nice 84 Monte SS. I have my GN that will be 14 years in July. I have owned several G-bodies over the years never a Cutlass 442. But I have ALWAYS wanted one. Very nice cars you have there.

I would break off my left arm and give it to you for a ride in the Gran Sport. The only thing that could make it more awesome would be if it was a convertible.

When the car was first ran with the rebuilt motor it tore the motor mount outta the frame. Lol. Its fun. I got my set of keys to it when i was 19... :D it used to have headers, 3inch exhaust and some other sfuff but when we restored it we took it back to near original. Its much nicer amd tighter now. It still rips the 275/60s into second gear. When on the highway the lane infront of me will part like the red sea. My friends like riding in it most but i like driving the road runner.

A co-worker of mine had one of those back in the mid 80s...I remember all of those shifters sticking up out of the console!! i'll have to upload some interior pics from my phone but here is the factory literature on the shifting sequence. its fun to use but its more show than go. so many owners are scared to use them because they can jam but they can be rebuilt. I have 2 extra sets. the shifter alone is worth $300-$800 but its more valuable for me to have spares. those only came factory in the 83 and 84 hurst. any other sets you see are the aftermarket hurst version in 3speed.

I was just talking tonight with my dad about all the cars that have been parked in the garage were we keep my hurst or SS and his 98 c5. Here is the list:

Dads, 65 barracuda, 67 cornet r/t w/440, 70 charger R/T w/440, 69 GTX 4 speed,67 vert vette 327 4speed, 77 vette, 98 c5
my uncle bobs 70 Charger r/t 383 4 speed, 70 cuda 383 4 speed
uncle phil's 73 Challenger 318, 70 GS 350, 70 GS stage 1 when it was his
my hurst, my SS
my uncle gene's 72 Barracuda 318
my uncle gary's 67 Barracuda

the GS and RR are right around the corner like 40 feet away

the pics are of my dads garage where we restored all the cars. the road runner was done in 85, the GS in 05 and my hurst in 08.
