1970 Plymouth Road Runner E87 440-six Pack on 2040-cars
Quinlan, Texas, United States
This is the real-deal, a 1970 Plymouth Road Runner
that has been pampered since her Rotisserie Restoration in 2010. A true E87 car (Letter (V) in the VIN's fifth
digit, and on the fender tag. ) Less than 500 examples came from the factory with the 440 Six Pack, and you get to
take full control of this screamer thanks to the four-speed stick shift. The E87 440 Six Pack was all about speed,
The car is painted in the original factory color. The beautiful and rare Sublime Green paint only adds to the value
and helps to showcase the beautiful body lines the car has. Open the door to a clean and solid interior. The vinyl
seats and door panels are all in excellent conditions. There's plenty of room for family and friends, but it's the
driver that's clearly the most important in this Plymouth. You slip into the bucket seat and grab the three-spoke
wheel with the Road Runner horn cap. Beyond that is a full set of factory gauges and auxiliary readouts under the
dash. This package includes a tach, which is especially helpful because the Hurst performance shifter is a huge
source of fun. Your favorite feature of this muscle machine is under the hood. It's a true E87 440 cubic-inch V8
with triple set of dual carbs (the legendary Six Pack.) This is a true V-code coupe, and that gives you true
rarity. Fully detailed with Hemi Orange paint, an original proper air cleaner and valve covers. She comes with the
original correct style factory Mopar battery. The exhaust note at idol is amazing, you can hear the thunder from
the moment this V8 roars to life. It’s the sound of raw horsepower and to drive this beauty is truly a thrill,
with power steering and power disk brakes and the four-speed stick shift keeps you in total control of this
monstrous package and the attention you get is crazy!!

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.

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.
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.
