Cheech,

This month's Muscle Car Review (October 2011) has a reprint
of Motor Trend Magazine (December 1967) general review of the
1968 Road Runner.

With comments from then Editor, Eric Dahlquist.
The editors took turns racing the car,,,,,,,,a Coupe with an
automatic transmission and 3.55 gears.

A Best E.T of 15.01 @ 93 MPH.

Only options, Magnum 500 steel wheels (14" x 5.5") and
rocker trim molding.

At first, they thought the marketing of the Road Runner name was
some kind of joke, but after testing the 383/335HP B-Body, they
were impressed with its performance.

Soon after, 'Car & Driver Magazine' labeled the car an 'Econo-Racer',
a $3000 'bare bones performance car'.
