1963 Plymouth Belvedere 426 Max Wedge Nostalgia Street / Race on 2040-cars
Angel Fire, New Mexico, United States
|
Belvedere 2 dr. post sedan. This is an original Florida garage kept car. This is where my friend found it I think in 1994 or 95'. It is original paint / interior / never wrecked or rusted body. This survivor was a 318 V-8 automatic, manual drum brakes and steering. Optional 3 spd automatic tranny. It has since been repainted back in 99" after I finished building it in 1997 into a nostalgia Max Wedge clone. I am selling this car that I built for him now at the request of his father as he is on his last legs in life. So don't fuck with me on this.. He has been wheelchair bound for the last 40 years due to a plane crash some 40 years ago at 19. He has been ill for the last 4 years and I have driven it on and off to keep it breathing maybe a total of 20 miles in this time. Car has 102,000 original miles. I will best describe the car as my memory allows. Last time he drove the car himself, street driven only and never made it to the track, he pulled the front wheels about 6" on so on the street!!!! By the way you can fit 10 people in the trunk!!! Engine; Real deal 1964 426 Max Wedge engine all date coded block / heads/ intake, that was bought complete carbs to pan from a mutual friend of ours in Tennessee. This engine was pulled with low miles, like no miles and hid away, from an early 1964 race car Chrysler delivered to him in late 1963 way back when to race in super stock. How cool!!!! Anyway it was never touched until we got it and it mich'ed out std. bore, std. / std. crank perfect. Engine had original forged super high compression 12-1 pistons, I replaced with speed pro 10 or 10.5 pistons installed and internally balanced with cloyes true roller, purple shaft hyd. flat tappet either .509 or the max version .520 lift. The cam sounds killer and runs really well in this engine combo. Better springs of course, rings, bearings. Engine is virgin as I remember. Don't ask about carbs, manifolds, oil pan.. as the original date coded crap I think he sold some time ago as I don't see it around. Has Milodon 8 qrt external pickup pan with indy billet pump and external Earls large oil cooler for street use. Carbs are carter super comp. edelbrock 750 cfm 1405's I think.

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.
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.

'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.
