 I'm selling my Roadrunner as too many things are going on right now for me to continue with it and I have no storage available anymore. Here's what I know,what's been done,and what I've done.It has a 360 engine with a mild comp cam,strong runner,727 Torque flight trans,9.25 posi rear end. These are things the previous owner put in,it originally came with a 318. They also redid the seats,carpet,door panels and dash,exhaust. Now, what I've done:
- new tires
- brakes(wheel cylinders,bearings,outer seals,master cylinder,power booster,lines that were needed,rotors,calipers,drums,hardware,all that was needed to make safe)
- suspension(urethane bushings,leaf springs,shocks,and whatever else was needed to make safe)
- distributor,(cap,rotor,plugs,wires,tune up,voltage regulator,ECU,ballast resistor,battery,alternator)
- rebuilt steering column and replaced steering wheel
- new windshield
 - fresh fluids,water pump,thermostat,hoses,belts
Okay,what it needs now is someone to give some TLC to the body,like repainting it,repairing the very bottom of the passenger fender as well as some repair to the rear floor pans. One thing I noticed after putting the column in is that the seal leaks some where it goes into the gear box,just an fyi.Remember, this is a 40 year old car and not owned by me for its whole life so it needs some work in this area.I take care of what I own and have done a lot of the major things.I've had this vehicle tuned and checked out by a race engine business and they certify it mechanically sound, ready to be used as a daily driver if needed. I can tell you,it rides and runs nice going down the road. It will come with some restoration parts to aid in the process, like a complete A/C system which it is set up for but someone removed, and some other parts as well.
 What you can do,after buying the car,give it the care that it deserves and that I could not finish.These cars are a rarity and this is a true Roadrunner,not a clone.Any questions,please feel free to ask and I'll do my best to answer them,thanks and good bidding!

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.

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.
