- We're back with our friend Griffin Steinfeld and this time it's Mopar! This one is completely different than his twin turbo '66 Chevelle. This is an old school all motor badass making 560 to the wheels, 4 speed and mean.
Sit back and enjoy the ride...

“I'm one of those boys who appreciates a fine body regardless of the make.”
Just appreciate our muscle cars. Enjoy my friend...
Yep. It's like gorgeous women. There are blondes, redheads and brunettes. You may have a preference, but you definitely appreciate them all.
I grew up mopar lover ford hater. I love fords now! Love a 427 FE
You can’t be a car person and not love that car a poster child for hot rods. 💯 big man
Can't beat a classic 440 B-body man, wicked!
vinniecorleone62 definitely the bad guy car 😎
When I think of an “American car” this is the sort of thing that pops into my head. Simply stunning.
Stay safe to you and your family Shaun 😎😷🍺
Steve D I agree here. Pure American muscle. You stay safe too
Mid-60s to mid-70s
I want my alarm clock to sound like THAT!
German Guti 😂
Me too ✋ thats motivation
One of my favorite videos to date! Cant beat a big cam 440 mopar with a 4 speed being ripped
devon knight it’s really good and gotta love a pistol grip to rip
One of the coolest cars ever made. An Icon.
This is what my dad used to have a 1968 Plymouth when I was little, this is what got me in the Musclecar industry
Pro.Vission 66 pure American muscle
The simplicity and beauty of this car is astonishing. My uncle John had a 1969 Barracuda 440, with a cross-ram manifold, double 4 barrel carbs, Micky Thomson Headers, a high lift Race Cam and solid lifters and a high compression. This was many years ago. He ran - (Super Stock Automatic) -- with a 4000 rpm (stahl-speed) and a 5.36 rear end. Best time in the 1/4 mile was 10.91 -- With 16" slicks at 8 lbs pressure the front end used to leave the ground. It always wanted to fish-tail on take off. This video takes me back in time. This car has the wright color, perfect for muscle...
That about 700 hp in todays measurements wow! Love the sound of old school 440 nothing compares and they pull like a freight train. Ford and Chevy guys do not get it some do but most know Mopar's are the best muscle cars and the ones that dominated in the 50s ,60s, 70s, and now.
Any car guy gets it. Its the X brand only guys that dont
The license plate says it all. I'm speechless other than saying thanks for taking us along on that boogie!
TheGunfighter45acp love that plate for this car!
The license plate does not say it all. It's missing two letters.
Now that's a muscle car!💪💯
Brian Samuels pure and true
My first car was a 1968 - 383 automatic Road Runner. Shifter on the collum with a bench seat to boot. Everything paint-wise was original, had a 780 Holley carb with an Offenhauser intake along with Headman Headers and a reverse shift B&M shifter. Had the car for 3 and a half years and then decided to let it go. Sold it for what I paid for it " 1.500.oo " dollars. This car really brought back what potential the car I had could have had. Nice ride.
This is why I love this channel, literally a build review for any car guy. Don’t matter what you’re into, you’ll find it on here 😎💪🏻 this thing is bad as hell
x Inline6 thank you. We love showing all kinds of great builds and this one is a killer!
Road Runner is my absolutely favorite muscle car.
Chuck Buckner awesome! This is a great one
100% Agree
Every dads dream...to have a son like Griffin. Who understands, enjoys, & can drive dads car. Respect Griffin.💪
The start up at 6:12....most beautiful sound I’ve ever heard.
Seen a lot of videos and styles of cars but these old-school rides like this are my favorites.
That sound put a smile on my face! What a nice build. A build anyone of us could make. Really cool car!
Primoz Krajcar yeah, I love the simplicity and the sounds
Sound so badass, 1968 Plymouth Roadrunner 440 my favorites Muscle cars !!
Tim Traver they are the definition of muscle
@@AutotopiaLA yep
I don't think the 68 road runner came with a 440. 383 or 426.
Had a factory red 68 RR when I turned 17 in 1982 and ur video took me back SMILIN 😁 miss that big red beautiful monster MOPARS RULE B Body's forever 383 MAGUM 'S a mother's nightmare
I could listen to that 440 all day, love 68 roadrunners🔥
eMAN me too. So good!
Seconds in and Im in love , what perfect kickass car. OMG
Graham Johnston it’s so good
OHHH, he brought the heat on this one wow. This one is too badass not to love, the definition of a rip snortin good time.
SinSear001 Griffin doesn’t mess around. He brings it everytime
Nothing Sounds as Good as The Rumble of a Big Block Mopar !!
The sound alone is incredible.
scaryperryx1050 it’s so good!
Now that's a pure old school Mopar. That 440 Magnum Sounds badass brother so badass that it'll make alot of pretty girls shiver they're bones like no tomorrow mate.
CJ Colvin sure is pure old school. It’s loud and sounds so good
@@AutotopiaLA Oh Yeah you betcha mate and plus it looks pure old school and I love it.
Very cool muscle car! I bought a new ‘68 Roadrunner 383/4spd in May of ‘68 when I returned home from Vietnam. The cost was $2,900. The only motor option in ‘68 was a 426 Hemi for $713 more, the 440 was only available in the Plymouth GTX. In 1969 the 440 became available in the A12 Roadrunner with a tri-power setup and fiberglass lift off hood. Thanks for this cool video.
That’s what I was thinking, when he said numbers matching? 440’s only being available in a GTX in 68, hate to pick, but very nice car
I stopped this video half way through and took my 69 Charger (440 R/T 4 speed) out for a ride.. Love runnin through the gears!!!
Jeff Priem awesome!! And great idea 👊
I love the way that car holds it,s nose to the ground on excelleration
That Plymouth sounds straight up evil. That's a solid build there. Can't go wrong with the pistol grip shifter.
jm8373 it’s really clean and old school simple. Badass
@7:20 Ohhhhhh that rev matching sounds so f'ing good!!! Car's an absolute beauty
That is an awesome car-love it! I grew up in my Dad’s 1969 Roadrunner before buying my own in 1986 (for $600!). FYI, the only engines available in the 68 RR were 383 or optional Hemi. 440 was standard for the GTX. Check the VIN on your 68, fifth digit is most likely “H” high performance 383 4 BBL.
I was wondering when someone was going acknowledge this.
This channel gives me an EARGASM almost every time! 🤤
Lex van Iterson awesome!! And they always sound even better up close in person. This thing sounds amazing
When you have this much passion for cars you can build anything and at the end it will bring you smiles and satisfaction. Thats what counts!!😃
Daniel Ortiz smiles for miles in one like this and that is what matters
100% true!!
The car is just beautiful, but what got me was the stance, the front end is just right when compared to the back end. Immaculate!
Rui Almeida this whole car is simply right to me too
big cam, 15' wheels. Classic!!!
Total classic badass
I love that he worked the matching block. A lot of people would say " how dare you work original engine blah blah blah...
Dude! That RR Rocks! You hit it on the head when you expressed how it made you feel riding in that beautiful beast! Definitely defines my childhood with my dad. Wicked old school is what comes to my mind! I love it!
Shawn thank you for showing us this bad ass ride and like always,I'm looking forward to more episodes! Shawn you're the man!
Julian Torrent-Vazquez thank you! This was so fun to shoot. That sound! And Griffin is a really cool kid. More to come with him soon
Thanks Shawn and Griffon... There are NO words to describe that sound hey??? This is what a built should be, just a clean, simple, no fuss good job. That Roadrunner silhouette really could not look better than on this particular car. Badass is the word! 👍🏻👌🏻
That idel sound is perfection.
It really is
@@AutotopiaLA I am a Ford guy, as a child my dad had a 71" cuda watching this video brought back some memories, truly a badass Roadrunner, Thanks,
I💜my 68 Plymouth Roadrunners... something about them makes me act like a little kid after finding his father's playboy magazine collection...thanks for upload guys...made my day even greater.
My uncle back in the 80s he had a 68 Roadrunner that was a street 440 with a 4 speed and it had a Dana 60 in the rear, he also had air jackers with bfgoodrich radials all over and the color was sassy green.
Sounds like he had a good one
That is one sweet Road Runner! Love it. Well done.
This is not a car it is a living beast. Always love the mopars they just look sound and go much better then the rest
Yeah, this is just pure cool on all levels
@@AutotopiaLA love you're videos man keep them coming
Simple, clean, back to basics badass. Very well done.
Sounds absolutely awesome. Great episode Shawn.
In this time of dropping new motors with their full grumpy sound, its a reliëf to hear that old lumpy sound. You can't beat that at idle...
Pirana 86 sure has a thing to it that I love too
9:21 watch his smile grow with the RPM haha
Ok man 30 seconds in and I'm digging Hell outta this car and stick! Shawn you ain't covered 1 vehicle I wasent in to especially this beast..
Craig M awesome!! We always pick cars we think are cool so I’m glad we agree here. Nothing like a pistol grip shifter
That car is so phat!!
Love the exhsust!
Tks Shawn
scanman 67 sounds so good...loud but really good
Love the stock wheels and REAL tires, RWL even. No 30" GHETTOs with an eighth of an inch of rubber wrapped around them. Beautiful.
They didn't put a 440 in a road runner in 68. 383 or hemi only. So how is it numbers matching?
Right on..numbers matching..me don't think so
Exactly I also think there is something wrong with the bucket seats as far as I know 68 Roadrunners only came bench seat and it is the wrong steering column, 68 Roadrunners had the key ignition key on the dashboard. Any time someone says Original Roadrunner I always want to see the vin if it is a 68 Road runner the first 4 will be RM21 (Coupe with post) Rm23 (Hard top no post) in 69 they introduced a Roadrunner convertible which first four will be Rm27. All that said car still looks and sounds like a lot of fun.
I believe 68 & 69 RR's
only had a full bench or split bench available. Had to go up a notch to GTX for buckets.
It's not.
Obviously, this is not restored but restified. If it is a true factory road runner, it wouldn't have a 440, bucket seats, and the pistol grip shifter didn't come out until a year or two later.
That said I still love this car. I have a 71 road runner that I am working on with a non matching 440, bench to bucket seat conversion, and a pistol grip.
I grew up with a 68 road runner myself. That’s one bad ass Mopar!
This car is near perfection.
It’s a great ride for sure
Nice MoPar---keep up the excellent variety
The way he said "YES" in the beginning, made me want to see this video till thee end!!!
My god that car is angry I LOVE IT
Just loving this. Greetings from Finland.
Tony Blomqvist hi!! Glad you liked it
That’s one mean looking and sounding machine. Clean and to the point. Just gorgeous.
That is a USA MUSCLE CAR!
A BEAST that is easy to work on, not finicky and doesn't send you to the poor house!
Sooo cooool!
I bought a 69 RR Hardtop, new that year, only kept it 6 years, then sold it for practically nothing then. Wish I still had it, it was "Bronzefire metallic", with the black hood stripes, full black vinyl top, bucket seats, console, etc., and a 383 HP with automatic. First new car I had bought after H.S.
Road runner is one of the best cars ever Mopar or no car I love the Lil road runner cartoon on it ayy
Ryker Elwyn and the sound of the horn!!
7:52 even I from europe can confirm that.
Late 60s/early 70s american muscle,the golden era and biggest peak in automotive history that will never happen again
Agreed all the way. Glad so many of them have been preserved and often times upgraded
Looks sooo nice. Much nicer than anything they've made in a very long time.
Have you all stopped smiling yet this is awesome ..great car guys .keep well .
Damn what a sound that it’s the rumble that you feel in your core, him and his dad build some sick cars! Old school big block 4 speed with cam, carb and headers... some suspension and brake changes neat tidy with black on black .... Sinister!!
Goes to show you less is more. Everything about this rig is incredible.
I had a 69 RR. Pump gas early 70s was 105 Octane! 🤯
I wish we still had 105!!
Oh! Stunning machine! Very impressive Mopar beast!
Plymouth Die-Cast Replicas it really is. Sounds so good
I love these videos. They make me smile and want a muscle car of my own.
Chad Tarleton they always make me smile too. Glad you like what we do here
Bad ass car maybe in the next life I won't be a janitor I'll be able to get one.
I hear ya buddy
love these old Mopar cars they will always be better than modern ones cuz you have to be a good driver for all old classics
I'm a Chevy man but I always love the roadrunner that one right there brings down the thunder powerful car
That is a great sounding Roadrunner!
im from a mopar family and this is one of the finest in my opinion. And they just look better than what gm and ford have to offer
I never thought of a car as sexy until I saw my first Roadrunner
The RR and the charger pretty much the def of muscle car. This one is awesome...great sound and stance. The black looks wicked.
Excitement overload, I think a little bit of P came out =D
The sound of that car was epic, I could sit and listen to it all day and never get bored.
You just can't beat the old muscle they have a sound all of their own.
Bray 760 this one sounds so good just straight pipes and motor
Sounds Brutal!
In most any car ...I absolutely dig side exit exhaust...no sound system needed !
Especially if it's a fat block ! LOL 🍻
deep junk garage especially a loud motor car like this. So good
Great Knowledge, Videos and of course the Muscle Cars Ty!
I'm torn between laughing and crying watching your presentation of the most understated and stylish muscle car of the late sixties ever built. And it was so stylish wasn't it? The most superb, sleek, low key design of the era. No other muscle car of the time came anywhere near it, they were so over-stated in design, all trying to "look fast" I guess. Unlike so many other Road Runner demonstrations, where they pussyfoot around with the thing, it was totally refreshing to watch you get your foot down and give it its head. I did nothing other than give my first new car, a 69, "its head" I drove the wheels off the thing, never for a moment thinking that I was driving such a future classic. I was 21 then, I'm 73 now, but if I ever had chance to get behind the wheel again and my foot on the gas peddle, I would give it rocks big style and try to relive a few moments of my long lost youth. As mad as it was. Many thanks. What do I do now, laugh or cry?
mad respect to the owner! and damn, this channel knows how to place a nuc on the target!
Griffin is a cool one and thanks! We try showing badass rides all the time
Such cars! Shawn! Your guest,s cars really know how to "torque" to us. The right set of wheels that can warp time and space and is for me the closest thing to feeling like a youth again. But if any one of us has the excitement and thrill of being in a 1968 Roadrunner, I,m surprised that no one has thought up the gag notion that in 1968, Chrysler would offer up as an option, a pound of quality Coyote meat ground round!!!
Love this car! Sounds powerful with the pipes dumped in front of the rear wheels.
Love the sidepipes!
How can you not love cars like that!
My brother once had a 68 roadrunner with the 383 so this car brings back my childhood memories.
I love the badass sound of a badass muscle car!
Emperor Abyss you and me both 👊
Love the mopar power and sound
Gorgeous MOPAR sounds great Love the side exit exhaust
This thing is awesome!
For sure 1 bad-ass ride right there...yet I'm partial to Chevys & his Chevelle in the previous episode is what we're going to go look for right now! Great uploads ...
One of your best episodes I've ever watched. At the age of 60 now, I was lucky enough to see some American Muscle in my country but never seen a MoPar B Body in real life. Watching a Muscle Car, I don't care whether it is a MoPar, Ford or GM ; I only appreciate that it was not turned into a circus clown with big-big shiny rims and the car is not lowered to look like a lizard creeping on the road. I won't comprise none with the look of these legends neither for traction, nor for speed.
Been too long, sorry.... this is a one great example of a great car. You must have no taste of autos to hit dislike of... not to hit like button.
I’m in love. My favorite car in its best color. So beautiful
What a beautiful car, love the Road Runner💯💯💯👍😁🇺🇸
Man that car sounds awesome and the body style is gorgeous. 👍👍👍👍
Love them Road Runners! And yes please turn that rev limiter up some more! Thanks for this sick video bro! Stay safe out there too man ✌🏻❤️
GreyC5 this one is so cool! You stay safe too 👊
Freakin awesome. There’s nothing like a big block sound
one of the few mopars id love to own
You, as a host, should not be having that much fun on assignment!! Lol! Love it man! Keep'em coming!
