It is in remarkable shape considering its a 44 year old muscle car. It has minor dents, scratches and minor rust. (See photos) The interior is in fair condition but could use new seat covers."

1969 Plymouth GTX 440-4 barrel, numbers matching SURVIVOR. This one is still wearing its original factory applied paint with the exception of the drivers side front fender and door. It also has its original factory applied saddle (tan) vinyl top! By numbers matching I mean the matching VIN is stamped on the radiator support, the engine, the transmission and the left side trunk lip. It also has the fender tag which has never been removed.

What makes this GTX stand out among others is the fact that it is almost entirely unmolested original factory condition with many of its factory assembly line markings still present. (See photos)

This GTX was ordered with the N96 code for Air Grabber hood, Goodyear Red Streak tires, magnum 500 chrome road wheels and has a passengers side mirror which makes it one of 337 ever produced with this option according to Govier. The saddle top / bronze fire metallic color combination is extremely rare on a GTX. I have searched on-line and at numerous car shows for over 10 years and have found only two others with this color combination! Even then other options were different making this GTX possibly One of One or at minimum, One of very few! This is what attracted me to this GTX, not another black, blue, or red, run of the mill muscle car.

Other reasons that this GTX is special is because it comes with the original broadcast sheet, original window sticker, original owners manual, the original warranty booklet with original owners name written in it and maintenance receipts dating back over 20 years!  

The GTX was ordered and shipped to Bill Swad Chrysler & Plymouth in Columbus, Ohio on September 16, 1969. The original owner, John D. White, an older gentlemen, used the GTX as his summer transportation, even putting chrome door guards and front mud flaps on it to protect his pride and joy.

If your looking for a muscle car that hasn't been dinked with, still wearing its original paint, this is that car!

All floor pans and frame rails are solid with no repairs needed or ever done.

The GTX currently has Hooker Competition Headers and exhaust however the original manifolds come with it.

Some upgrades have been made to include electronic ignition.

Recent new parts include, 4 new tires $700.00, front suspension professional rebuilt by Mike Riels Dodge in Roseville, MI (Including new front shocks, painting parts to resemble original colors and painted inspection marks $2,100.00. New original style battery from Mancini Racing $264.00.

The original thumbwheel AM radio works great but is disconnected. There is a hidden Pioneer CD player with MP3 jack in the glove box. I purchased different kick panels and glove box so that nothing original to the car was cut. All original parts that I have will come with the GTX.

You are welcome to arrange an inspection and test drive.  

The GTX runs and drives great however I suggest trailering it on account it has 4:10 gears. It would be extremely hard on the engine to run it over 55mph for any distance. It would also be extremely hard on your wallet!

The reserve price is set at $24,900 NOT because I think that is what the GTX is worth, I think it's worth a lot more! A reserve price is set at the very minimum that I am willing to let it sell for.

Sorry I will not close the auction for anyone offering the reserve price.

Sorry I am not interested in trades.

I do hold the right to close the auction according to eBay rules as this car is for sale locally.  

Thank you and buy this car, its worth it!

SRT belatedly claims Plymouth Prowler as one of its own

Wed, 19 Dec 2012

Before 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.

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.

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.
