Choctaw, Oklahoma, United States

Up for sale is my 1970 Plymouth Cuda.  It is originally a 440, 4 Speed, 4.10 Dana Car and is still all original except for the engine which is now a 484 Hemi.  The numbers matching engine was not in the car when I purchased it in Nov 1979, but it did have a replacement block in the car that has no serial number on it, and I still have that engine, which will go with the vehicle.  I assume it was replaced for warranty work.  The car still has its numbers matching 4 speed transmission and the original Dana rearend.  This car has the following options;  Super TrakPac, which came with power front disc brakes and 4.10 rearend ratio.  It also has power steering with the factory cooler.  I just replaced the clutch with a Centerforce dual friction setup. 

This car is originally Lemon Twist Yellow with a Tan interior and it did have a White vinyl top, but it is now Black. It also came with a console, which I still have, but it is not in the car.  I added the rear wing and the 71 Shaker hood.  The wing and hood are original pieces, not reproductions.  I recovered the seats with covers from Legendary in the original color.  It also has the factory Rallye gauges, pistol grip shifter, Centerline Warrior wheels with New Mickey Thompson street radials and a Sony stereo system.

The current engine is a 484 Hemi using a new Siamese block with Aluminum heads.  Bore is 4.310 and the Stroke is 4.15.  Inside the engine are the following parts:  Wiesco pistons, Manley H beam Rods, Mopar Crankshaft, Crower Solid Lifter Cam (251/255 @ .050, .571/.569 lift), stock intake with two 600 CFM eldebrock carburators, carter electric fuel pump, aluminum water pump housing, TTI headers with 3 inch exhaust.  I also added frame connectors to keep the car safer and reduce body twist, as I do race the car about 3 - 4 times a year.  Best time so far on Mickey Thompson street radials is 11.34 at 123 Mph.

So, except for the engine change and the frame connectors, this car is mostly original and this car has not been in any accidents since I have owned the car, which has been since November 1979.  As stated before, this car is driven often and raced maybe 3-4 times a year.  It does have two small dents in the body, one in the passenger door and one at the front of the drivers fender and there could be some very small startings of rust spots in the left rear quarter behind the rear tire, otherwise the body is in very nice shape.   It is not in show condition, especially the underside, but it attracts its share of attention Wherever it goes!!! 

Plymouth built 314, 440, 4 barrel, 4 speed Cudas in 1970.  If you include the facts that it has the Super Trac Pac option with Lemon Twist paint and Tan interior, I would think this makes for a fairly rare and desirable vehicle.

Thanks for looking!!!

'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.

'Blood Muscle' auction to sell impressive collection of ill-begotten classic cars

Wed, 30 Jul 2014

The 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.

US Marshal's classic muscle car auction officially in the books

Thu, 25 Sep 2014

The 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.
