1971 Plymouth Cuda orig 340, now with a dual carb Hemi, Hemi 4 speed Trans, Dana 60 3:54. This car has been rotisserie restored and is pretty much flawless, top to bottom front to back everything has been restored or is new. Car runs, idles. stops, steers perfectly. All Brake lines, fuel lines, wiring, etc are new, pedals have even been powdercoated. I had always wanted a 71 Cuda, since the early 90's when I was cruising down Melrose and I heard a rumbling beast pull up next to me..it was a Black 71 Cuda with billboards, funny thing is everyone else was looking at it as well ignoring the Ferraris and Maseratis that surrounded it--it was the first time I had ever seen a Cuda and it left a lasting impression on me and the rest of my life I have dreamed of owning a Black 71 Cuda. I finally realized the dream, but unfortunately its time to let someone else enjoy the car--Working 6 days a week and a newborn baby are making it hard to get to take this car out and enjoy it. Anyway, like I said the car is beautiful and runs perfect--it has been restored with all the details that a real Hemi car wouldve had including the proper K member and the torque boxes that a 4 speed car wouldve had. It also has some nice handling upgrades like frame connectors, front and rear sway bars and 4 wheel disc brakes. If you have any questions shoot me an email and Ill answer them, Im easy to deal with. Over 100k was spent restoring this car, it has the rallye gauges, front and rear spoiler, houndstooth interior. There is no build sheet or fender tag, but car was orig curious yellow. I have pictures of all the restoration and the orig CA blue and yellow plates. The pictures should tell the story. Also no 10% buyers premium or extra 10k you have to spend to tune and detail this car---its perfect.

Ive had a few emails if I would sell/ship to overseas buyers? I am 30 minutes from the ports of Los Angeles and I would be happy to take the cars to the nearby ports if an overseas buyer purchases the car.

'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.
'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.
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.
