1963 Plymouth Sport Fury Convertible on 2040-cars

Year:1963 Mileage:29304

Saint James, New York, United States

This car is a find for the buyer/collector/investor seeking something different at a below-market-value price. 

  • Smooth-running, powerful 318 cubic-inch V-8 engine is coupled to the legendary TorquFlite pushbutton transmission for an energetic and easy drive.
  • The power-steering is effortless, which was typical of the times.
  • The brakes stop the car quickly and in a straight line.
  • The white power-operated top is in excellent condition and operates perfectly.
  • The interior has received new factory-matched seat and back upholstery, beautifully done. The door and rear interior quarter panels are original and in perfect condition. The carpeting is in very good condition.
  • The body is straight and appears to be rust- and Bondo-free, and  the paint, which I believe to be original, is in very good condition.
  • The chrome and stainless trim is in very good to excellent condition.
  • All lights and gauges function properly, though the clock (like most of this vintage) does not work.
  • The radio installed below the dash is a quality after-market unit. The original radio (in the dash) does work.
  • The car was originally shipped to Knoxville, Tennessee, where it spent all of its "life" until 2000, when it was acquired by its current owner. It appears to have always been very well-cared-for.
  • We have the original window sticker, bill-of-sale, and owner's manual for the car.
  • The reserve has been set low, as an impending personal relocation is about to occur.
  • The odometer mileage cannot be verified, but based on the car's condition, we do not think it has "gone around".

The car is extremely solid, as has been determined by a noted, certified professional inspector. He had numerous positive comments about the automobile's originality and exceptionally fine condition. He also discovered the repaired rear-wheel surrounds, which, in his opinion, had work done on them many years ago, prior to it's current ownership. This new information has caused me to lower the reserve on the car, as I recognize that the buyer (if he/she chooses to do so) would have some expense involved in re-doing these repairs (as they are showing a bit of filler and paint failure).

US Marshal's classic muscle car auction officially in the books

Thu, 25 Sep 2014

The 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.

SRT belatedly claims Plymouth Prowler as one of its own

Wed, 19 Dec 2012

Before 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.
