Wow that's an odd duck...or bird...I guess.....

We had a white one around here with blue interior...I always liked that combo, green not so much.

    Ran across a 70 Cuda at Mecum today, Murray @blown motor  took picks he will post.  440 6 pack, 4 speed, convertible. Car had Ontario plates.  Black, with Black hockey stripes, white top, BLUE interior.  All documented, 1 of 2 built .

Found some info which makes me scratch my head around the A12 Roadrunner:

Sold as a $462.80 option on the base $2,945.00 Road Runner, the A12 was a popular choice. Production of the A12 Road Runner finished after 615 were built, 227 with automatics and 388 with 4-speed manuals. Color options for the Road Runner included Performance Red, Bahama Yellow, Rallye Green and Vitamin C Orange. Later in production all the Dodge colors became available and some were finished in White, Limelight and Sunfire Yellow. Interior was restricted to just black or white with an option vinyl top.

So how did this guy with a White M-code A12 Roadrunner get a green interior?

My attitude would be that there's a difference between what was officially offered and what could be ordered. Back in the day a salesman could call the factory and ask that anything that would physically fit be installed, whether or not the order sheet had a check box for it.

I knida like the color combo, anything different now-a-days is kinda refreshing.   :alan2cents:

As mentioned above, if someone wanted it, by golly the salesman would get it ordered.  :bigthumb:

On one hand it's pretty rare if its real but on the other hand I'm not a fan of green interiors.

The other possibility is that it's a fake but who know they only made 1300 or so and half that are 4 speeds

I actually think that combo sounds great! 

Checked the link saw the pics, that car is badass and I love the white with green interior!

I would have even gone for a white interior but not dark green.

Can't bring myself to even call this guy but still looking.

Nothing wrong with green, too bad it's not a bench seat car though.
