This was originally a 1974 318 Barracuda. I replaced the 318 with a 440 6-Pack. I replaced the 74 Grill and rear with new 1970 grill and rear plate I repaced the 74 fog light /turn signals with the grill mounted turn signals. I replaced the rear lights with 1970 lights. I cut and moved both the front and rear bumpers in several inches to fit the grill and rear plate and rewelded them. I replaced the 74 rear bumper with a 70 rear bumper. I added a rear spoiler. I put in new dual exhaust and the cuda 3 inch rectangular tips and the rear twin valance. I reupholsterd the front and rear seats and put in new carpeting(which I haven't gluded down). I put in new floor pans and cut out the rust under the rear seat and welded in new sheet metal. I installed a pistol grip shifter. I replaced the plain 318 hood with a fiberglass hood with simulated air scoops. I put in a new 440 radiator, a new gas tank, fuel pump and lines and had the carbs and the starter rebuilt all in Jan 2013. It runs great. I put in new leaf springs. The brakes, lights, gauges all work. It has a CD player and 4 new speakers. The paint job is new and shiny but not show room quality since I didn't sand and prep that well near the bottom of both doors(see photos of lower doors). I put on new 440 decals and emblems. The tires and wheels are in good condition. What does it need? It needs a new top(top is okay) and a new trunk floor and it has rust in the frame. Right now it's a great car to drive and gets attention but it still needs to be restored if you want a show car. I'm not into show cars I just like to drive muscle cars. I'm selling this car because I am retiring and moving to Florida and won't have anywhere to park an extra car. I can be reached at 910-425-0068. I am in Fayetteville NC. You are welcome to come see it. Thanks for looking.

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.
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.
