Really clean '74 Cuda!

Here's the only fault, car has a "Rebuilt-Salvage" title.

I ended the listing because I had the story AND the wording wrong and I offended the previous owner,  Billy I'm sorry for that. Here is why the car has a salvege title.

As far as the title goes - I got the original 1974 PA title from the original owner when I bought it from him in Feb 2000. I had clean title until 2003, we did have a flood at our house, the garage it was stored in was on higher ground (thank goodness), but the flooding was from heavy fast rains that backed up the drains on our street, we were the lowest point, so all the water gushed at our house. Anyway, the Cuda did take in water, I immediately ripped out the carpeting and padding, the seats soaked a little water and the foam got moldy, I set the seats out in the sun, and this is how I left the Cuda. We were going through a divorce when this happened. I rolled the Cuda in with the insurance claim for the flood, insurance company salvaged it and I bought it back from the insurance company. That is how it has a salvage title. 

Really good running 318 with the infamous Purple Stick cam, 4 barrel and headers, automatic.

Runs good, sounds goos, looks good.

Not perfect by any means but a great driver!

Come by and take a look at it in person...

All sales are final, car is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end listing at any time.

A $500.00 NON-REFUNDABLE deposit is required at auctions end.

Cash or cashiers check within 7 days of auctions end, buyrs is responsible for all shipping arrangements, I do have a local shipper that is very dependable and reasonable.

I will ship overseas BUT you will make ALL arrangements, no questions.

'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.

'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 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.
