1972 Plymouth Barracuda (cuda) 340 4 Speed on 2040-cars
Rochester, Michigan, United States
|
Up for sale is my 1972 Plymouth Cuda. Note that this car is a fresh restoration. This car is black with a black interior with reproduction Chrysler rallye wheels. This is a show quality car and as you can see the black paint is very smooth for a muscle car. This paint does have minor scratches from being driven and has a minor dent in the right side of the rear valance. This Cuda did have a rotisserie restoration done over the winter by the previous owner. The metal all the way around was either reused if good or replaced. You will find no rust on this vehicle. The trunk and underside are painted in the same black color as the body. The interior of this car is black with no rips or tears. The radio is a factory AM setup and is not plugged in that I can see. It does have a 340, 4 speed drivetrain that is not numbers matching, but 72 correct I am told. The engine sounds like a mild build and does run good. The 4 speed does have the pistol grip shifter. Also, the clutch setup is very heavy duty and not for just anybody or heavy traffic. It does have a 8 3/4" rear axle, not sure of the ratio. The brake lines are new on this car and it does stop very good for a drum setup. The lights work well on it. The gas gauge does not work, which I figured out is the instrument panel voltage regulator. A spare working gauge will be included. This car also lacks a glovebox, which is no big deal to find. Overall you will not be disappointed. This car is fun and very beautiful. The metal work on this rotisserie restoration was done very well and it will definitely win awards at shows. This is an awesome car, I am selling because I am not used to a manual transmission and local traffic will not allow for it to be driven. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Note that this car is sold as is. The reserve price is fair for the vehicle. You will not find one this nice for the money.

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.
'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.
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.
