This was originally a 1974 318 Barracuda. I replaced the 318 with a 440 6-Pack. I replaced the 74 Grill and rear with new 1970 grill and rear plate I repaced the 74 fog light /turn signals with the grill mounted turn signals. I replaced the rear lights with 1970 lights. I cut and moved both the front and rear bumpers in several inches to fit the grill and rear plate and rewelded them. I replaced the 74 rear bumper with a 70 rear bumper. I added a rear spoiler. I put in new dual exhaust and the cuda 3 inch rectangular tips and the rear twin valance. I reupholsterd the front and rear seats and put in new carpeting(which I haven't gluded down). I put in new floor pans and cut out the rust under the rear seat and welded in new sheet metal. I installed a pistol grip shifter. I replaced the plain 318 hood with a fiberglass hood with simulated air scoops. I put in a new 440 radiator, a new gas tank, fuel pump and lines and had the carbs and the starter rebuilt all in Jan 2013. It runs great. I put in new leaf springs. The brakes, lights, gauges all work. It has a CD player and 4 new speakers. The paint job is new and shiny but not show room quality since I didn't sand and prep that well near the bottom of both doors(see photos of lower doors). I put on new 440 decals and emblems. The tires and wheels are in good condition. What does it need? It needs a new top(top is okay) and a new trunk floor and it has rust in the frame. Right now it's a great car to drive and gets attention but it still needs to be restored if you want a show car. I'm not into show cars I just like to drive muscle cars. I'm selling this car because I am retiring and moving to Florida and won't have anywhere to park an extra car. I can be reached at 910-425-0068. I am in Fayetteville NC. You are welcome to come see it. 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.
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.
