1973 PLYMOUTH DUSTER 340 4-SPEED MUSCLE CAR PROJECT

For sale is this rare & real classic muscle car stuck in 1981. It was last driven in the early 80s when the motor was pulled to get a rebuild that never happened. You must supply the motor but it comes with just about everything you need including the 4 speed & posi rear end. It was built/ordered? to be a drag car: check out the many extra rear leaf springs, the power front disc brakes, front sway bars & manual steering! The old gauges, 8 track player & faded period paint job show the era the car last lived in. I just bought the car so know very little about its history but its obvious it had an interesting life & has been waiting a long time for someone to get around to a full restoration. I did carefully check the undercarriage, as the photos show, while it was on my rollback & the frame IS solid. The floors are all good except for behind the drivers seat. The trunk floor is very good. It will need a trunk lid, the hood looks good, the fenders may be salvageable, doors & hinge areas are fine but it will need lower quarters. The doors open & close with no flop & there is no twist or droop from a swiss cheese frame. The dual exhaust appears to be factory down to the factory tips, clamps & brackets.

The black interior is complete with a clean gauge cluster that shows a recently flipped odometer. The dash board is in pretty good shape: even the carpet shows little wear. All the glass is good with no chips, cracks or fog. 

Bidding starts at a fair price considering the 4 speed trans, rare posi rear end, power disc brakes, factory exhaust tips & rally wheels not to mention the clear title. There is no reserve & no buy it now price so any bids are going to be from REAL bidders interesting in owning this RARE car. It wont end until the last bid is made so please dont make offers. If you do bid please follow thru & complete the sale & be certain of what you are buying BEFORE bidding. If you wish to know more please email your questions.

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.

'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.
