Usually, Hagerty is pretty good.

Lot 203: 1974 Plymouth Road Runner Hemi Hardtop​

Bonhams
Sold for $196,000

Chassis no. RM23R1R114725. Black with white C-pillar stripes over black vinyl. Older restoration, #3 condition.

Equipment: 426 Hemi V-8, 4-speed with pistol grip shifter, air grabber scoop, power steering and brakes, Rallye wheels with BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires, bucket seats, AM/FM radio, from the Golden State muscle car collection.

Condition: The paint is very dull and swirled. There are noticeable chips on the back edge of both B-pillars. The bumpers are shiny. The engine compartment is detailed and presents very well. The underbody is restored and shows little deterioration. The interior is aged and shows some wear. A moderately scruffy example of a final year Hemi Road Runner.

Bottom line: The 1971 model year was the last for the Hemi. It was also the first of a full redesign of the Belvedere/Satellite/Road Runner series, employing the handsome fuselage theme with loop-shaped front bumper and high trunk. Hemis naturally sit at the top of the heap, and 4-speeds command a decent premium. This one sold about right for its equipment and condition.

74 model car and Hagerty saying 71 was the last year for a Hemi....

 

[gtx6970]

Someone caught it,
I didnt see anywhere on the page its says 74


Everyone knows 71 was last year for street hemi cars, anyone with a mind can see the car is NOT a 74
Proof read or not, it didnt hurt the sales price at all

I didn't go to the site and I'm not versed very well on the later B body cars but yeah, it didn't right for a 74....
