Up for grabs is this 1953 Plymouth Cambridge... Before you write this SOB off for being a Plymouth let me just ask you a question. Why are you looking for an old school car? Because you want something different, something that is the complete opposite of everything you see on the streets today (the wussy prius, the moped, the mini van, ughhh the honda). Here is your answer, a loud, ugly, 61 year old, made in the USA Plymouth.

It has a flat black paint job, with a little bit of sparkles thrown in. The white scallops with gold' ish pin stripes around them and the job on the trunk lid (see pictures). Other than that nothing overly flashy. The body doesn’t have any major dents/dings, pretty damn straight. No rust (at least none that I know of). All the windows are solid (no cracks), and original. There is however one flaw in the paint, if you look at the pictures of the roof the paint peeled a little. The girlfriend placed something heavy on the roof while during a storm. (primer is showing) Other than that, the body is in very very good condition.

The interior is very very basic. However the dash has been repainted and pin striped. It also has a hidden Sony stereo receiver in the dash. Has a custom stereo with a bass tube in the back. Side panels are serape but it still needs carpet. The headliner is a maybe? The car has only been driven in summer/good weather. The rest of the time its just been stored away.

The engine is a rebuilt Chevy 350 small block. Very smooth installation. No problems with it whatsoever. It always starts up. Like I said it has only been driven in fair weather as a cruiser so it hasn't been over used and still has plenty of life. The automatic transmission also came out with the engine. It has P-R-N-D-2-1. Don’t have much to say about drive train because it is very basic and has never been a problem.

Steering is original meaning no power steering and also no power brakes. The tires also have plenty of tread left on them. Everything works flawlessly but, I'm just putting it out there for anybody who thinks these are as easy to drive as a modern car. It takes some skill to maneuver these. Not for the weak of heart.

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.

'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.

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.
