1966 - Plymouth Barracuda on 2040-cars
Rail Road Flat, California, United States
1966 Plymouth Barracuda This Barracuda has a 340 V8 and a 4 speed manual transmission. The 340 was rebuilt over 5 years ago but only driven on occasional weekends and car meets. It has a Edelbrock 600 cfm 4 barrel carb, edelbrock performer intake manifold. The Transmission was just rebuilt this summer and shifts great. I've done a lot of work to this car and it looks and runs great. At present the 340 has 273 exhaust manifolds but I have to heat coated Hipo 340 manifold ready to go on the car. I also have a ton of other parts that will go with the car. Doubles of a lot of interior parts and trim pieces. Things that go with the car and that I want to put into the car are the center console with brand new top plates for the 4 speed, Chromed 4 speed pedal assembly and rocker panel trim. There is more parts that go with the car so call if you want more info. I added the original from sway bar and after market rear sway for way better handling, 15inch Chrysler Rally wheels and BF Goodrich White lettered Tires to beef up the look and ride. I also added heavy duty rear springs. This car has most of the Formula S upgrades accept for the badging and the tach which can both be purchased aftermarket. Under the hood, the 340 is bored .30 over and has a fairly stock cam, new Edelbrock 600 cfm carb. The wiring harness is new and correct for the car. The dash bezel has been restored and painted and all the gauges rebuilt by redline gauges. New Dash pad and Seats were restored before I bought the car. New carpet new headliner, re-chromed front and rear bumpers, polished rear upper quarter fin trim, New front windshield and much more.

'71 Plymouth Hemi Cuda Convertible sells for $3.5M [w/video]
Mon, 16 Jun 2014
We're plenty used to seeing classic cars selling for millions of dollars. It's just that they're usually European: Ferraris, Bugattis, Mercedes and the like. There are some rare American exceptions, usually wearing the names Duesenberg or Shelby. But what we have here is the most expensive Chrysler product ever sold at auction.
The vehicle in question is a Plymouth Barracuda - specifically a 1971 Hemi Cuda Convertible, chassis #BS27R1B315367 - that Mecum Auctions just sold after eight solid minutes of feverish bidding for a high bid of $3.5 million at its auction in Seattle, Washington. That figure positively eclipses the $2.2 million paid for a strikingly similar Hemi Cuda (chassis #BS27R1B269588) fetched nearly seven years ago in Scottsdale and another that was the first muscle car to break the million-dollar mark in 2002.
Barrett-Jackson 2014: 1970 Plymouth Hemi Superbird passes half a million dollars
Sat, 18 Jan 2014The Plymouth Superbird is one of those classic American cars from the muscle car era that has captured the imagination of all sorts of automotive enthusiasts long after its presence on roads and race tracks wore away. It's easy to see why. Where else but in the Swingin' Sixties and Seventies would a car leave the factory with an aerodynamics package that included a pointy beak and a rear spoiler that sat several feet above the rear deck?
The example you see above, which was born in 1970, is one of the finest Superbirds we've ever seen. Combine its complete restoration with its original 426 Hemi engine, and it's no surprise that it managed to bring in a cool half million dollars (plus 10 percent in fees) at Barrett-Jackson. See it yourself in our high-res image gallery above, and scroll down below for the official auction description.

US Marshal's classic muscle car auction officially in the books
Thu, 25 Sep 2014The US Marshal's so-called Blood Muscle Auction was completed earlier this month, with the prestigious nine-car field (two cars were added following Autoblog's initial story, a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454 and a rare, mid-restoration 1971 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda) finding new and hopefully law-abiding owners.
While we'd normally recap the stars of the show, in this particular auction, every car's sale was newsworthy. The full list of sale prices doesn't seem to be published, but according to The New York Times, the auction brought in a total of $2.5 million, or an average of about $277,000 per car.
The king of the contest seems to be a 1970 Plymouth Superbird (above, right), complete with a 426-cubic-inch Hemi V8, which brought home $575,000. The trio of Yenko Chevys, meanwhile, all easily cleared the six-figure mark, with the Yenko Camaro (above, far right) clearing $315,000, the Chevelle crossing the block for $237,500 and the supremely rare - one of just 37 - Yenko Nova (shown above, left) selling for an even $400,000.
