Adult Owned. One Owner. Original Condition. Unmolested. Unmodified. Low Reserve! on 2040-cars
Shelter Island, New York, United States

One owner car. 83,400 original miles and has definitely NOT turned over. Always garaged and looks nearly new. Clear Washington State title. 5 new Hankook tires in the correct, original size. New fuel pump, new filters, new fluids, new shocks, new timing chain, new water pump, new exhaust parts, new gas gauge, new brakes, and a full tune up. I have all records for the work I had done in 2013 as well as work done going back almost 30 years. She runs like a charm and starts up right every time. Quiet and smooth 318 Poly engine with more power than you'd expect. Easy, tight steering. You can drive this car with a pinky finger. One unusual feature - a light on the left turn signal to indicate when you're driving with a lead foot; it gets brighter the more you floor it to indicate fuel usage. Ahh, the gasoline shortages of the 1970s. Truly a car of its time. They made hundreds of thousands of them back in the day but where have they all gone? The poorer cousin of the Cordoba, identical frame and mechanicals. First year of manufacture for the "new, mid-size Fury". Historical car. Tried-and-true B-body Mopar. I've no question in my mind you can drive this car home no matter where in North America you need to go. Everything was gone through. Battery still under warranty. So's the exhaust. What people throw away is what becomes most valuable. Think of the Chevelle versus the Eldorado! Interest in 1970s cars continues to grow. Other B-bodies of the era such as the Sebring, Challenger, Charger, Coronet and so on are selling for $50K and more - in some cases, much more. 15 years ago, people would have called you crazy if you had predicted that. What will this car be worth in 5 years? Plenty more than today. They sure aren't making any more like this one. And unlike a lot of the other B-bodies I mentioned, this one was never whipped, never raced, never restored, never messed with. You can restore an automobile as many times as you like, but they're only original once. I just bought a Reatta and I need the garage space which is why I have decided to part with her. I do have some urgency in listing her at this time but am not desperate to sell. Nevertheless, I have set an extremely reasonable reserve to help her along. Another of my sons is about to get his driver's license and he is very fond of the car. It would be a shame to put it in a teenager's hands... save this seldom-seen example of Detroit's history. LOL! |

US Marshal's classic muscle car auction officially in the books
Thu, 25 Sep 2014The 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.
SRT belatedly claims Plymouth Prowler as one of its own
Wed, 19 Dec 2012Before Chrysler had Street and Racing Technology, it had Performance Vehicle Operations. What the two entities have in common, before SRT became its own brand, of course, is that each was created to take Chrysler and Dodge (and Plymouth, before it was unceremoniously killed off) vehicles to the next level of style and performance.
We'll leave the question of whether or not the old Plymouth (and later Chrysler) Prowler was ultimately a stylish, performance-oriented car to you, but the boys and girls currently leading the SRT charge at the Pentastar headquarters are keen to accept the retro-rod into the fold.
According to the automaker, all of SRT's current high-performance models owe a debt of gratitude to the old Prowler, due mostly to that car's use of lightweight bits and pieces and innovative construction techniques. If nothing else, the fact that the Prowler's frame is "the largest machined automotive part in history" is pretty cool. Read all the details here.
