This rust free southern car has had the same owner for the last 32 years and has recently undergone a full nut and bolt rotisserie restoration with the intention of never being sold so no expense was spared. This V Code Cuda with the 440 Six Pack has all original sheet metal and hood, the floor and trunk pans are original as well. This car was completely disassembled and then reassembled with attention to detail which is evident throughout. The date code correct 440 Six Pack with the 906 heads and aluminum intake was completely rebuilt as was the 727 automatic transmission and the 8 3/4 rear end with 3.55 posi. When you open the door and look at the flawless interior, you would never guess that only the carpet and seat covers have been redone with the gauges, door panels, headliner and rear window defrost being original to the car. This, along with the original sheet metal, attest to the excellent condition of the Cuda before the concours level restoration began. When you are walking around the car, you see the mirror like image of yourself in the flawlessly applied FE5 Rally Red Paint. Quickly you notice the perfect alignment of the hood, doors and trunk then you realize that the fit and finish is so much better than when it rolled off of Plymouth’s assembly line 43 years ago. Anticipation is building as you pull the hood pins on the original shaker hood. As you raise the hood, you see what you would expect from this concours restoration, a highly detailed engine compartment with all the proper paint colors housing the freshly rebuilt 440 with the fully functional shaker air intake. When you see this Cuda, one word comes to mind….WOW. When you drive it two words come to mind….Perfection and Awesome. There is less than 4,000 trouble free miles since the restoration. The 1970 Cuda with the 440 Six Pack is considered by many as one of the most sought after of all the Cudas, especially the V-Code, 440 Six Pack. Definitely a very desirable collector muscle car.

'Blood Muscle' auction to sell impressive collection of ill-begotten classic cars

Wed, 30 Jul 2014

The old saying goes that if you can't do the time, don't do the crime. But being a criminal can involve more than just taking a trip to the big house; it can also mean losing possessions purchased from any ill-gotten gains. Still, one man's loss is another's gain, and if you're in Lodi, NJ, on September 12, you stand the chance to buy some of the ultimate muscle cars from the US Marshals in what is being gruesomely nicknamed the Blood Muscle auction.
The grisly moniker was earned because all of the vehicles belonged to the president of a blood testing company who is facing prison time for alleged bribery, according to Hemmings. After all, they are muscle cars bought with actual blood money. The seven-vehicle collection includes some of the ultimate muscle cars ever made, and the original buyer clearly had an eye for rarity.
This cornucopia of V8 power includes a teal 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 429, a 1967 Shelby GT500 Mustang, an orange 1970 Plymouth Superbird, a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS convertible and perhaps most prized of all - a trio of 1969 Yenko Chevys with a Chevelle, Nova and Camaro all represented. From the included photos, all of them look to be in fantastic condition.

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.

'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.
