I know this because I was the shipper. The buyer planned to restore it and add it to his collection of American cars. In 2011 it was at a restoration shop 350 Kilometers away from the collection when the tsunami hit Japan. 8 cars and a 1946 Harley-Davidson were washed away and buried in mud. They've never been found. The Barracuda at the shop was the sole survivor. The shop's owner Mr. Tokunaga wanted to help his customer and has done so by donating countless hours of his time to the restoration of this car. His company MADE IN USA CO., LTD. is known in Japan for building high quality American muscle cars and race cars. At the Motegi Street Shootout in 2012 his '89 Firebird took first place in the pro class. In 2013 his 1970 Challenger won Best of Show at the American Sunday Car Show. This year his '89 Firebird took 2nd place at the Motegi Street Shootout. He's been at it since 1994. These photos were shot at the Fuji Speedway. What you have here is an absolutely beautiful 1970 Barracuda meticulously put together by a Japanese builder with an eye for exacting standards. With many years of knowledge and experience this car showcases the best of his talents. With Only 55 miles on it since completion two months ago you will get a highly collectable, value filled investment. Bid with confidence, everything is exactly as described. Any and all questions will be answered immediately. If you want to discuss it by phone please feel free to drop me an email with your phone number. I'll respond promptly. The purchase price includes the cost of shipping it from Japan to Los Angeles, and all U.S. Customs clearance charges. It comes with a Missouri Title that came with the car originally. It can registered just like any car bought in the U.S. You can pick it up in L.A. or have it trucked to your city. If you choose to truck it you will be responsible for the transport charges. The winning bidder will be required to post a $2,000.00 deposit within 48 hrs. But because of additional 3 - 4 weeks to get it here from Japan, the balance of the funds will not be required within 14 days. The balance will only be required when the car is here and ready to be picked up. We do ask for a reasonable, mutually satisfactory agreement that assures us of your ability to pay the balance. If you are not a U.S. buyer, and want it shipped to another country, direct shipping from Japan can be arranged. |

'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.

'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.
