Texas Classic Cars of Dallas is proud to present this classic '73 Plymouth Barracuda. Born a high price class, 318-equipped Barracuda, this car now sports a full 'cuda cosmetic package and upgraded 340 cubic inch engine. Our facilities have completed a lot of recent mechanical work including replacing the heater core, air conditioning compressor and components along with a replaced sending unit for the gas tank and various mechanicals. We have approximately $4,000 in receipts to verify this. This work was performed in 2012.

Plymouth's own pony car was in its final years in 1973. The Barracuda was produced from 1964 until 1974. This example has been equipped with full Cuda treatment including the High Impact Vitamin C Orange Paint, Billboard Stripes, Spoiler, Badging, and the 340 c.i. 4bbl. powerplant.

The exterior displays classic 'cuda styling cues including the sinister blacked-out tail light panel and spoiler.

Closer inspection of the finish will confirm an exceptionally solid and straight car with a good driver quality finish. The paint has been polished to a mirror-like shine, there are some chip touch-ups and minor imperfection on closer inspection.

Plymouth's "E" Body Barracuda was born in 1970, conceived with a lower, wider, more menacing version of the "B" body predecessor.

The interior features classic sport buckets along with the center console. 'Cuda badging is prominent on both door panels. The dash displays the original speedometer & gauges along with a mounted tachometer near the speedometer. The original AM Radio was removed and a remote-operated Kenwood Excelon AM/FM stereo CD installed.

The classic "sharks tooth" grille design is desired among Mopar enthusiasts and musclecar lovers alike.

Behind the shark grille, is this transplanted 340 c.i. V8. This street-friendly mill features upgraded Edelbrock induction (carburetor & aluminum intake) along with the ceramic-coated head exhaust system. Creature comforts were few in the Mopar world circa 60s-70s, however this Plymouth is equipped the best of them, including air conditioning, power steering, and power front disc brakes.

Further inspection of the engine compartment will confirm exceptionally solid inner fenderwells, core support, and firewall steel. Some evidence of the cars original yellow finish is evident if you look closely. Approximately $4,000 was recently spent on mechanicals including a replaced air conditioning system, heater core, along with a tune with spark plugs and wires replaced.

'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.
