You are looking at a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda Gran Coupe. The factory color was Burnt Orange inside and out. It came factory with power brakes, A/C, and Rally dash. I have all window chrome & emblems, all interior (the back seat bottom was missing but I had an extra one that goes with) . I have the numbers matching 383 engine block, dash and fender tag. This is an unfinished project that will need a lot of work to be considered complete. It will need body work finished (a lot of the new sheet metal screwed or spot welded in place), under the back seat floor repaired or replaced, under dash air vents fixed or replaced, new grill & turn signal lights (have the original grill but is broken and missing turn signal light and pass. headlight surrounding), windshield, interior recovered (seats, carpet, headliner), A\C parts (condenser, a\c lines, a\c compressor), and I have a drive shaft but it needs the right slip yoke to go in the trans. I have bought new fenders, roof, trunk floor & front floor, and front & rear valance. I have all the old parts that I have taken off the car to go with (seen in pics). There are going to be lots of odds and ends that will need to be bought as you complete the restoration. So I have listed everything that I could think of. If you have any specific questions please ask before bidding. The numbers matching 383 engine was already taken apart when I bought the car. I have the block, crank, pistons, heads, intake, and exhaust manifolds. I have a running 400 engine sitting in the car for now. I was going to use it while I had the numbers matching engine rebuilt. Due to not having time to complete the car and I don't want it to sit and get any worse (can't stand someone that watches a car fall to pieces and will never sell or finish). I do not end auction early or want any trades, so please do not ask.

'Blood Muscle' auction to sell impressive collection of ill-begotten classic cars
Wed, 30 Jul 2014The 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.
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.
