In 1976 the Road Runner name was switched to the 2-door model of the
replacement for the compact A-body Valiant/Duster series. The new F
platform was marketed as the Plymouth "Volaré" and the new Road Runner
became primarily a trim and graphics package. The standard engine was
the 318 V8 with the 360 CID V8 offered as an option (with a two barrel
carb for 1976-'77 and single exhaust) producing 160 hp (119 kW) and only
paired with the 3-speed automatic transmission Suspension parts were
borrowed from the police packages.
In 1978 and 1979, the 360 was
offered with a four-barrel carb and, for 1979, dual exhaust, bringing
power up to 195 hp (145 kW). The standard engine or the 1979 model year
was the 225 CID "Slant 6" six-cylinder. For 1980, the 360 was no longer
offered, and the 318 was the top engine. The Road Runner continued as
part of the Volaré line until its discontinuation in 1980.
