This car was used by Chrysler to promote their A12 Roadrunner package, and is known as the “Wayward Beeper.” The significant history is outlined in a feature in Super Stock Magazine, when it was tuned by legend Ronnie Sox.
This stunning muscle car is powered by a 440 engine that makes 390 horsepower with three 2 barrel carbs, and backed by a A833 four-speed transmission. It has also has stripped down interior, and 4.10:1 rear gears. Chrysler calls this the fastest A12 ever built since it’s gone 12.91 seconds in the 1/4 mile!
