Plymouth Roadrunner

The Roadrunner was one of Plymouth's most popular models, and the sister car to the Dodge Charger. It was named after the popular Looney Tunes character, mostly due to his tendency to run fast. The Roadrunner and the special Superbird model based on the Dodge Daytona competed successfully in the Grand National, famously driven by the legendary Richard Petty. The Superbird was given a logo with the cartoon character on it. The logo was also the inspiration for the Dodge Super Bee.
