The odometer shows 36k miles which I can not guaranty, but I believe to be true for the following reasons:

All glass is original and in excellent condition including the windshield.

The interior is all original and in amazing condition including the dash pad which has no cracks, interior panels are really nice, not scratched up or chalky, seat belts show very minimal wear or fading. The original carpet is not worn out. The original owner did cut out a small section of carpet under the drivers floor matt and made a secret hiding place for something like keys or emergency money. I got the car with a vintage aftermarket radio installed. I pulled it out and installed a correct AM radio that I had. The radio does not work. Both radios are included. The knob for the rear speaker switch is missing.

The car was bought new in CA and lived there it’s whole life. The car was never rusty and has had a repaint. The body is straight and all panels appear to be original. The drivers lower quarter has some filler due to a minor incident. The shaker hood is original. The paint looks very presentable. No dents or scratches. There are some imperfections in the paint that are visible under Florissant lights when looking closely. The car gets many compliments from anyone that sees it.

The car is an unmolested, highly optioned car that was loved and cared for it’s entire life.

The door jams and engine compartment are still in original paint. All body numbers match: Dash tag, fender tag, door sticker, cowl and rad support. The VIN pads on both the engine and trans are blank. This could mean two things. The factory never stamped them or they were both replaced under warranty. I would lean towards the never been stamped theory. Galen Govier the authority on MOPARS has documented this fact on other cars.

The bottom of the car is very clean and original. Look at the pic of the floor pan and notice the original primer and no pitting.

Engine starts right up and runs smoothly, the trans shifts nicely and show no signs of any issues. Exhaust is stock and most likely the original system. The car sounds quiet.

The original radiator has a leak was replaced with a new one. The original radiator is included with the car. The tanks can be removed from the original and installed on the new one.

The trunk floor is solid with no rust. It was painted black for protection by the original owner.

Recap:

A car like this does not come along very often. This car came from the factory as you see it with EV2 high impact paint, Shaker Hood, Billboard Stripes, Rear spoiler, painted mirrors and color keyed grill.

'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.

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.

'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.
