Description:

Up for sale is one of the rare ones. A running and driving 1971 GTX!  Only 2942 real GTX's were ever built. No telling how many are left, I would assume less than half.  The GTX was always the gentleman's muscle car, as it came with more options and a bit more styling than the Road Runner and Satellite.

It's hard to find them like this. Either they are in junk yards and require more to fix it than it will be worth, or frame off restored, and cost to much enjoy. The interior appears to be original and has some cracks rips and tears, nothing major, just wanted to point it out. The body is in really good shape, just a few minor dents and dings. The paint is a good 10 footer, the previous owner said this was a barn find and he took it to Maaco after fixing the body. If you know paint, Maaco isn't a good company to use for a nice car.

Underneath is solid, with only minor surface rust. The front bumper is in good shape, with only minor pitting and peeling. The rear bumper will need to be replaced, the bottom has peeled pretty bad. The most important part to me is the engine. It is in very good shape and runs like a scalded dog. It appears to be matching numbers, but I am not certain. I found all the date codes, which show it as a 1971 440, but couldn't find the vin on it. We rebuilt the carb, flushed out the gas, and did the routine maintenance.

It sports the old school craiger wheels which look good to me. Tires are in pretty good shape too. I consider this a little better than a driving project. This is one that would be cool at the local car show/ cruise in. But it would need some interior work and paint to be a
"show car". This is one you can drive, have a blast, and fix it up when you feel like it.  This is the definition of a barn find with a driver repaint. I have a gallon of Sublime Green Metallic paint that the winning bidder can have if they want it. Would look awesome on the car.

If you have any questions at all please feel free to ask. I don't know much about Mopar, but will be more than willing to help.

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.
