73 gtx

is there anything special on the body for a 73 gtx or is it just a road runner with a 440 engine?

Nothing special

Hey,

If I'm not mistaken, ordering the 440 made the Road Runner a GTX by default, it was no longer a seperate model after 71. You got a GTX emblem on the hood. That being said, If you got one, it's pretty cool in my book. Besides, saying "440" just flows, not like my 73 "400", lol.

73 and 74 RR/GTX's got 440 chrome emblems on either side of the hood bulge and on the deck lid.
Other than that they were same as RR's
73 & 74 RR/GTX's were pretty rare ... I have the numbers somewhere if you want them.
