1971 Road Runner EV2 w/ Halloween Interior

Hey all-
So, being the Mopar obsessed guy I am.....I just bought a '71 Road Runner. Got offered it for what I thought was a screaming deal so I couldn't say no. It's a factory 383 4 speed car. EV2 Hemi Orange with the black & orange Halloween interior. Would anybody happen to know if there is a registry for them? I recently registered my '71 Charger R/T with the appropriate registry so now wondering if one exists for Road Runners. Also, would anybody happen to know what or where I could find production numbers for the Halloween interior cars? If that information even exists?

Cheers!
Cody

Can't help with the registry or production numbers.

Nice find, but it's a PLYMOUTH, and therefore Tor-red. Welcome to the Nest.

What's the trunk and floor pans look like? Did you find a build sheet?

Indeed, I do. That's cool with me though, I'm young so plenty of time :lol:

The trunk and floor pans are great. Have not checked for a build sheet. I first saw the car back in July when I purchased my Citron Yella '71 Charger R/T from a friend. He owned the Road Runner too. I really wanted it but only had one car trailer and wanted the Charger more so brought it home. Was talking to him last month and ended up making a deal for the Road Runner too so I won't be picking it up and bringing it home until the spring.

Hey Cody,
Great car! There is a member on this board that does an informal registry for 71 Plymouth B-bodies. His name and user name is Eric. Just send him a PM - he will be glad to hear from you. As for numbers on the halloween interior - he may have that or at least he may be able to tell you the percentage from the known cars in the registry. The EV2 exterior paint came on 3.2% of the Satellite/RR/GTX line - or on about 4,492 cars. The four speed is slightly rarer - about 3,375 Roadrunners came equipped with the manual shifter.
Scott.

Thanks Scott! I looked up Eric's profile but it appears he hasn't been on since 2015?
