I found this car sitting in a private garage of a very informed collector last year. He had several top notch Plymouths in his collection. I asked how he bought the car... He told me he got it from the grandson of the original owner. He told me that the car was to his knowledge a true 37k original mile car. The grandson had painted the car when he inherited the car. Although I cant sell it as an original mile car because of state of Illinois laws, I can say one thing, this drivetrain is incredible and I have NEVER drove a Duster that handles like this one. I had no questions and bought it right on the spot. I have taken it to my top mechanic, and we inspected it and found that someone had invested a lot of money in this car. Some of the new parts includes...all suspension, shocks, ball joints, bushings, after market sway bar... All new seals in the transmission, front seal, an gasket, filter, shift shaft seals...we believe the interior to be original and in the best shape original interior could ever be.....The carpet must have been dyed at one time because it looks as if it is brand new.....This car handles incredibly and not as you would expect a car of this age to drive. I would have no problem getting in it and taking off to California. This is a real AIR car, and the air blows cold. You can tell it has spent most of its life cared for and garaged beautifully. I have only had it for a year and only have taken it to shows. It turns heads at every street corner I stop at. The only reason I am selling it, is I found a 1971 true 440 GTX that I am going to rebuild, and it will take me everything I have to make that a 100k car. The BF Goodrich Radial TA tires are in great shape and so are the rally wheels. The trunk is cleaner than my girlfriends 2012 truck. For the collector that has been searching for a true classic that could be used as both a daily driver, or something to take to the weekend shows. At the price I am selling it, you will be very hard pressed to find one nicer. I can assist in national and international shipping. Cash or bank wire only. Clear Title. Please feel free to call me if you have questions and are interested in purchasing and I will get back with you as soon as possible or call 618-567-6785.

'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 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.
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.
