1971 plymouth roadrunner, just finishing a restoration, restored as a driver show car, i bought this car about a year ago, all i know about the car is restoration was started about 20 years ago, but then the owner passed away, car sat for a number of years then it was sold to the guy i bought it from, he owned it for about 2 years if i remember right, car came out of montana, i bought it mainly cause is was a very solid rust free car, has original quarters,trunk lid,doors,hood, fenders were off of another car, it came complete with many extra parts, i but the best of everything i had for the car


orginally this was a 383 car but now has a 73 HP 440, completely rebuilt with about 100 miles on the engine, transmission has about the same, the previous owner had all of this done so i cannot confirm any of it only going off of what i was told

car was repainted back to its original orange color

interior is a custom job that was done when i bought the car, custom door panels, dash is nice and not cracked, currently the gas gauge is not working and the oil pressure gauge i am going to put in a new sending unit to see if i can fix them both

floors were perfect with no rust, trunk floor has some rust on the passenger side but it was replaced, rh lower quarter has a patch panel put in the lower part behind the rear tire but it was a small repair panel, there is no rust on the car anywhere, frame rails are solid and were never rusted

tires are new, windshield is new, back glass was removed and resealed, all new decals,car originally had a vinyl top but i did not like it so i removed it, added the front and rear spoiler
just had it aligned,new exhaust, i still need to have the exhaust tips installed, i will have that done first part of this week,trunk lock

brakes are all new manual drum brakes


paint is nice driver quality it has been sanded and buffed to a nice smooth shine, the car really needed to be blocked out one more time before painting so there are some area's of the paint that are not perfect

weatherstrip is all new

here is a list of what i have to do to the car and will have them done by end of the week, door sill plates, turn signal indicators in the hood, hook up rear speakers to radio, hood up antenna, fix oil pressure and gas gauge,seat belts need installed

all lights and turn signals work

will post more pictures tomorrow these do not do the car justice need some sunshine,today was dark and gloomy

'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.

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.

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.
