1970 Plymouth Road Runner V-code 440+6 Hemi 4-speed Vitamin-c Sixpack Barn Find on 2040-cars
Southampton, New York, United States
Hello friends. For auction My 1970 RoadRunner. Let me start the story of this car from the beginning. Back in 1999 I had sold all my mopars do to a series of poor decisions. I went a few years then in 2002 I had the money and itch to get into a high option mopar again. I contacted a good friend who was known in the region to come across cars of this caliber. A few months later he called me with info on this sixpack Roadrunner. Soon after my brother and I headed up into the mountains with a trailer and pockets of cash. At the time this was the biggest single purchase I had made but I knew cars of this pedigree only come around a few times in a lifetime. The next fallowing few days My brother and I disassembled the interior and pulled out the build-sheets. We took the engine and transmission out and put the rolling car in storage. Months later my brother was killed on his motorcycle when a minivan came into his lane. I remember the excitement and laughs we had that weekend when we picked up the Roadrunner. We both had a passion for cars and spent most of our time talking about them and wrenching. When we were together there was no project to big for us, no task that couldn't be done on a late night in the garage. 10 years later the car sits the same as it did the weekend we brought it back. There's some rust from when it spent some time in the weather but other then that its the same as the day it was pulled from the barn in the mountains. Some details on the car. . 1970 Roadrunner 440+6, console 4speed, Dana, vitamin C, original everything, 2 build sheets, door tag, fender tag, last regi in 77'. All the best options, best color, best year, flawless pedigree. The one to have. Retired drag car, has altered quarter panels but original Dana was untouched. Doors and nose all original and in great condition. Will need full metal from doors back. The car was complete when I purchased it but I pulled the engine, seats, carpet out of it before it went into storage. I was storing the car in a less then secure barn and I didn’t want any of the irreplaceable components there heaven forbid someone broke in. By original everything I mean:
Unfortunately this is the busiest time of year for me. I will try to reply to questions promptly. If your a serious buyer its best to leave your phone number or detailed message. Fieldcombs@gmail.com Thanks for looking folks and best wishes. -Jarred
On Apr-16-14 at 16:19:08 PDT, seller added the following information: I forgot to mention. I could put the car on a trailer and deliver to spring Carlisle at no extra charge. This may help out some of you Midwest guys. The car would have to be paid in full before its loaded up. Thanks again |

'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 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.

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.
