1970 Plymouth Barracuda 440 Cid With 4-speed And Shaker Hood on 2040-cars
Stoutland, Missouri, United States
I have owned this car since 1976 and recently rotisserie restored it to what I believe is better than new. Many fine donors and years of collecting rare parts to give it what I always wanted. It was appraised at $85,000 less than 2 years ago by Tony Rankin and John Crank of Corvette Country in Austin, TX. They gave it a #1 Condition and quoted, "A truely outstanding example of a national show quality and completed frame off rotisserie restoration." It was recently featured as a "Star" vehicle in Mecum Auctions and although it did not sell, it received the highest bid of any other comparable 'Cuda same year. You are welcome to make an offer. Serious Bidders only please. I will answer emails and if you are a serious buyer I will provide my phone # if you would like to call. The vehicle can be seen anytime with a scheduled appointment. I can also provide additional photos of anything if requested. Special Features include: *Rally Gauges *Big Radiator *Shaker Hood *HP 440 *Power Steering *Power Front Disc Brakes *3.91 Sure Grip 8 3/4 Differential *Factory Pistol Grip Shifter *11 inch Clutch *Under coated *Custom Sub Franme Connectors (no floor alteration) *Forged Pistons for Nitrous Oxide option *New Kenwood C/D Stereo System (without any dash alteration) This car was restored with great detail. Every nut, bolt and screw was reconditoned. All bare metal was prepped with an epoxy primer DP40, urethane primer, and urethane paint. Even the seat frames were blasted and repainted. I put in a top-quality racing fuel pump and drycell batteries for less corrosion. I switched to an electronic ignition. Tires are new and speed rated to 112 mph. In fact everything is either new or better than factory. I made this car to last a lifetime and then some. It is ready to show and drive and runs like a beast!! May someone else enjoy it as I have for so many years.

'Blood Muscle' auction to sell impressive collection of ill-begotten classic cars
Wed, 30 Jul 2014The old saying goes that if you can't do the time, don't do the crime. But being a criminal can involve more than just taking a trip to the big house; it can also mean losing possessions purchased from any ill-gotten gains. Still, one man's loss is another's gain, and if you're in Lodi, NJ, on September 12, you stand the chance to buy some of the ultimate muscle cars from the US Marshals in what is being gruesomely nicknamed the Blood Muscle auction.
The grisly moniker was earned because all of the vehicles belonged to the president of a blood testing company who is facing prison time for alleged bribery, according to Hemmings. After all, they are muscle cars bought with actual blood money. The seven-vehicle collection includes some of the ultimate muscle cars ever made, and the original buyer clearly had an eye for rarity.
This cornucopia of V8 power includes a teal 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 429, a 1967 Shelby GT500 Mustang, an orange 1970 Plymouth Superbird, a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS convertible and perhaps most prized of all - a trio of 1969 Yenko Chevys with a Chevelle, Nova and Camaro all represented. From the included photos, all of them look to be in fantastic condition.
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.
