Don't bid on this car unless you like a lot of attention. I have become famous with the students of my kids' elementary school from pick-ups in this car. It was restored in 2007. There are only some minor blemishes in the paint but you have to search for them. The upholstery is great and chrome still looks good. The car has only had two paint jobs, and yes this is the original paint color. It is 100% straight and has never been hit. The car is a California time warp. It is a true Space Age Modern family car. People marvel at the outrageously huge fins, optional stainless window visors and the Flight Sweep toilet seat trunk lid. The car starts immediately and runs well. The brakes were recently overhauled. The steering wheel is one of the best ever. However the clear metal flake sparkle part is wrapped in leather because it has cracks. I've yet to have it recast. The bad is that the clock doesn't work and AM radio will faintly work after it warms up. Other than that, there is zero rust, the car has been stored in a garage and hanger at the Torrance Airport. I have a large collection of cars that I rotate. I've had fun with this car but I need to sell for more space and to fund the restoration of other projects. I encourage scheduling a showing before the auction ends. My number is 310-259-5195. I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime because I might be trading for another Mopar project or could sell it through other avenues. If you require more pics just ask. The California Title is clear and will be sent or handed over upon payment. Unfortunately, I know the car will sell for less than it really worth so don't wait and ask if it's still available after the auction ends. This will be a absolute steal, especially when you compare to overpriced 1957 Chevy's and Cadillacs of the same vintage. This is a connoisseur's car. Good luck bidding.

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.
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.
