How many 1974 gtx roadrunners were produced?

none, either it was a GTX or a roadrunner. Not so, 79 is the accepted number of "Road Runner GTX"s produced in the model year 1974. Any 72-74' Road Runner ordered with the 440HP engine was officially named a "Road Runner GTX" having both name plates. When a 1972-1974 Roadrunner was upgraded to the 440ci engine, it became a Roadrunner/GTX. The Dodge/Plymouth Red Book pocket guides lists 79 RR/GTXs produced in 1974. This is thought to be too low. The White Books produced by Mopar expert Galen Govier lists the production of 1974 RR/GTXs as 386. This is the current accepted production number. Self-described "Mopar expert" Galen Govier. Yes, I know. But he has amassed a great deal of documentation and data. I wish I had the foresight to do that.


What is the difference between a Road Runner and a GTX?

What is the difference between a Plymouth Roadrunner and a Plymouth GTX?

GTX comes with a hemi standard. Roadrunner does not. Actually the standard engine for the GTX was the 440-4bbl, the 426 HEMI was an option, throughout it's entire production run as a stand-alone model from 67-71'. The 440 6bbl was also available as an option in 70-71'. The GTX was considered the "Gentleman's muscle car" as it had a higher trim level and price tag. The Road Runner in those years was initially a bare-bones/big motor version of the GTX, 383HP being the standard engine in 68', the 426 Hemi and, from 69 1/2', the 440 6bbl were optional up until 71'. It was marketed toward a younger crowd. For 72-74', with the GTX discontinued as a stand-model, Road Runners ordered with the optional 440HP engine were called a "Road Runner GTX".

What is the difference between a Plymouth gtx and a roadrunner car?

The GTX appealed to a more upscale crowd, had upgraded trim and engine selections over the Road Runner, which appealed more to the budget-minded drag-racing crowd and was a much more stripped-down car by comparison.

How many Roadrunner GTX's were produced?

Through 1971, the Plymouth Road Runner and GTX were separate models. Traditionally the VIN of the Road Runner started with RM23, and the GTX started with RS23. The base Road Runner came standard with a 383ci engine and a minimum of options. The GTX came standard with the 440ci engine, and was appointed with several standard options. The Road Runner was the cheap muscle car, and the GTX was the luxury muscle car. This changed in 1972 as the GTX was dropped as a stand alone model and the 400ci engine became standard for the Road Runner. If you ordered a Road Runner with the one of two 440ci engine options that year, the model became a Road Runner GTX, included additional badging as such. There were 672 Road Runner GTXs produced in 1972. 219 were 4spd manuals, and 453 were automatics. In 1973 and 74, the 318ci engine became standard in the Road Runner. Again, if you ordered the 440ci engine, your Road Runner became a Road Runner GTX. In 1973, 749 Road Runner GTXs were produced. And in 1974, 386 Road Runner GTXs were produced. All 1973/74s were automatics. So the final answer is: There were 1,807 Road Runner GTXs produced from 1972 through 1974. The model name for all "U" and "V" engine coded '72-74 RM23/RM21s is "Road Runner GTX". This official model name change is as described by existing Chrysler documentation; "Road Runner will become a Road Runner GTX when it is ordered with either the 440 4-barrel or 440 6-barrel optional engines"
