Hello. Up for consideration here today is my neighbors car. I am listing it for him, since he does not have a computer. It is a 1973 Plymouth Fury Suburban Station wagon with a 400ci V8 engine and I believe torque flite 727 transmission. It was last on the road 1991. He purchased this car brand new at Reedman Toll in Langhorne. He is the one and only owner. The engine has never been changed so it should be a numbers matching car. Mostly original except for wear items.

The story on this car is my neighbor wanted to get the car running so he could sell it. I drug the car over to my house. I replaced the ballast resistor, fuel pump, ignition control module, voltage regulator, spark plugs, rebuilt distributor, coil. It also has a rebuilt by national carburetor (the holley 2 barrel), rebuilt master cylinder and both front calipers as well as new pads. The fuel line is currently being run to my boat gas tank, because the main fuel tank should be cleaned out. There is no headliner, it was pretty much destroyed so we took it out. The dashboard is severely cracked. The oem AM radio does work as well as the single speaker in the dash board. The rear power window does go up and down but it should be lubed and cleaned because it is pretty slow.

The engine fires right up, and after it warms up idles smoothly. The linkage for the auto choke pops off during kick down I think I may have it on backwards, I will look into it. The exhaust is shot, we kinda rigged up a cherry bomb on it just so it wouldn't be so loud (the original exhaust shot off when I resurrected the car). The brakes power boosters rubber diaphragm is ripped, so the power portion of the brakes does not work. I bled the brakes flushed with better fluid, they do work but it required heavy foot pressure or two feet to stop, its a heavy car. I did drive it around the neighborhood once. It has been sitting a few months, but I just fired it up over the weekend and nothing has changed. Most everything still works, all of the exterior lights work with the exception of one tag light is busted. The dome light does not work or stays on with a bulb I can't remember. The door panels are nice and the seats are not ripped. The carpet needs replacing. What I thought was cool about the car (other than it being a pretty rare wagon these days), is that the front turn signals are hidden behind the lower grill, looks pretty neat. It was garage kept up until the late 80's, early 90's, so the rust isn't as bad as it should be. There is rust and rot however, it is a mopar. I had thought about acquiring the car from him and putting it back on the road (since its pretty close already), but I just got a mustang and a diesel truck, so I don't need another project at this time, and he needs the real estate.

The things I noticed while working on it, what it would need to be road legal- Tires, they are bias ply and the front passenger loses air in about two hours, the gas tank needs to be flushed and while there run new rubber lines to the front of the car, cooling system needs to be flushed and I would change the thermostat and hoses while there. New belts. Power booster for the brakes, and def. the rubber lines and if not the steel lines as well, the rubber front lines were a bit swollen when I changed the calipers. The car really should be trailered home. I do have a diesel pickup, if you have access to a trailer or dolly and are local I could help out for the price of diesel fuel. There is oil burning from somewhere, I know for sure its coming from the valve cover gaskets, maybe other places as well?

The boat gas tank is for demo only and does not go with the car, neither does the battery. I would be happy to show and demo the car to interested parties before the auction ends. Please, no offers for scrap or scrap value, a running 400 goes for well over that, and I could just scrap it myself. I am willing to work with buyers, but if you win it really needs to be paid for and picked up 7 days after the auction ends. Any questions please ask. Bidders with little or no feedback, please contact me first PRIOR to bidding, that way it will be easier for everyone.

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.

'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 2014

The 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.
