1967 Plymouth Barracuda Convertible, Muscle Car-roadrunner Wanna-be on 2040-cars
Jacksonville, Florida, United States
|
CONVERTIBLE: two cars in one; most popular; best of both worlds (especially with factory air conditioning); moonlight & stars look best/better with music playing when on a mountain top park area; driving on a beautiful country back road, or just a happy universe gazing moment. You can buy a used Honda for this price. but what would you rather have in your wallet? BARRACUDA MAN! V8-273ci original: equipped: Automatic stick floor shift; center console. Factory floor & trunk pans solid with no patches. Factory rockers never altered or repaired. No trim missing. Has factory jack & parts, 67 "road bag"?, rim/tire spare, & spare hardboard cover. NEW front bucket seats recover set still in box (not needed anytime soon as you can see by original seats). Note nice crack free steering wheel & dash pad (original of course). All power assist units (Steering/brakes/top) are operational as expected. Does not blow oil smoke or overheat. Battery does not drain when sitting (which means there are no wiring shorts). All lights, wipers, horn, & gauges work. A complete original won't sell lower than my price unless it has multiple issues/needs, or is not numbers matching. No matter how much people know they are shopping for an "aged" vehicle, they tend to forget the extent of time since this left the Chrysler/Plymouth dealership showroom: 1967 took place 47 years ago. This old Cuda still has the same flare today, that it had to it's first buyer @ that time. I must also point out: notice how clean the engine firewall & surround panels show. Still has the hood factory insulator pad. Not bad for just hang'n around & no squeaky mechanic tore it apart. No plaster face lift here. At the request of a "California Dreamer" request, I did *poke out the less than one foot area of *outer rocker panel with a screwdriver (see picture with rocker bubbles before hokey pokey). His perfection dream popped @ the idea of less than 1 foot x 2 inches section out of 12 feet of rocker solid metal on this ***47******year old **steel machine (approx. 12 feet counting both rockers). The important part of this is that the *inner* factory rocker has NO weakness/holes. Either does the factory *weld seams. I will fill the little pokey section with bondo & try to match paint. If this minimal rust pokey info reality & up front truthfulness offends/bothers you, you are looking in the wrong Ebay car section (although 10 year old cars have this "rust never sleeps" tiny bubble dilemma....... A picture of this pokey section is available via iphone. Time for another time machine/ART piece-concept of designers metal sculpture/investment in past & present/hoola hoops-hippy days daze. I don't have to beg someone to own this; one either has the money & "back to the future" desire, or will never own one (or spend $10k more for perfection al a mode). Your $13,500 will always be there+. When cruising in this Cuda, your music playing on the radio, happy faces next to you, moment in time rolls under you/forward with you/perpetual memories that the rest of the world needs, but you are steering your own. Take a picture, before the next lifetime. call for a CUDA "good time-machine": 904-881-3495 Christmas ? |

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.
SRT belatedly claims Plymouth Prowler as one of its own
Wed, 19 Dec 2012Before Chrysler had Street and Racing Technology, it had Performance Vehicle Operations. What the two entities have in common, before SRT became its own brand, of course, is that each was created to take Chrysler and Dodge (and Plymouth, before it was unceremoniously killed off) vehicles to the next level of style and performance.
We'll leave the question of whether or not the old Plymouth (and later Chrysler) Prowler was ultimately a stylish, performance-oriented car to you, but the boys and girls currently leading the SRT charge at the Pentastar headquarters are keen to accept the retro-rod into the fold.
According to the automaker, all of SRT's current high-performance models owe a debt of gratitude to the old Prowler, due mostly to that car's use of lightweight bits and pieces and innovative construction techniques. If nothing else, the fact that the Prowler's frame is "the largest machined automotive part in history" is pretty cool. Read all the details here.
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.
