In 1970 Chrysler built two Trans-Am cars to compete and conform for SCCA competion, the Dodge Challenger T/A and the Plymouth AAR Cuda. This particular example is a highly optioned, numbers matching car, being offered for sale from a private collection. Wearing it's rare, beautiful B5 blue paint, this AAR is one of only 1120 4 speeds built. Aside from a new carpet, it retains it's original interior and is a non console, rallye dash car. It is also equipt with the rare front rubber bumper option, has the original and correct T/A hood, bumpers, glass, #'s and date correct wheels, carbs, intake, starter, jack, spare, seat belts etc. New items on the car include brake lines and hoses front to rear, control arms, fuel tank and lines, incl. the sending unit. I have the original fender tags and some of the options listed include A01 light package, A21 Elastomeric front bumper, A53 T/A pkg, A62 Rallye instrument cluster, B51 power brakes, G36 dual mirrors ( driver side remote ), J82 rear spoiler, L31 fender mounted turn signals, M21 drip rail moldings, N44 side exhaust, N85 tachometer, to name a few. This is a very nice, well cared for car, that ideally should go to a good home, where the new owner will be proud to own the car, drive it and show it abit, thru out the summer month's. Fell free to ask questions, call, inspect etc before the end of the auction, not after! I will offer and assist with storage, prior to transport, as the car is in a heated and secure environment. $1,000.00 deposit @ auction end, with the balance due in 7 days. Sorry, no trade's! This car was sold early this year, with the buyer unable to complete. Please serious bidders only! Thanks for looking and good luck bidding. |

'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.
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.
