1969 Plymouth RoadRunner hardtop, black with saddle tan interior (color change from Bronze Fire Metallic T-5).  426 cc engine, 4 speed and Dana 60 rear end.  I have owned the car since 2003.  It was drag raced by two former owners and placed second in class at the 1993 National Muscle Car Association's FlowMaster Challenge held in Memphis, TN.  At that time, the car ran an ET of 12.7 seconds.  Although not documented, I was told the car has run ET's into the elevens.  The car does retain its original engine and rear end.  The rear end gear has been changed from 3:54 to 4:10.  The A-833 transmission is a 1969 hemi roadrunner transmission with an earlier VIN stamping.  The engine and transmission have been rebuilt - engine in September, 2004, the transmission in 2008, the Carter carburetors were completely restored  by Holley in 2005 and the body was disassembled and repainted in 2007 with PPG single stage.  


Because of its drag racing heritage, the following upgrades are still in place - 12 to 1 Venolia pistons, more aggressive cam, Mopar electronic ignition, Holley electric fuel pump and period correct vintage Sun Supertach model #SST-802.  

The car has been featured in Mopar Collectors Guide 1992, appeared in Muscle Car Review 1994 and Mopar Action 2008.  The car sold new at Barrish Chrysler Plymouth in Los Angeles, CA in May 1969.  Current mileage is 70,919.  The cooling system is filled with Evans Waterless Coolant.  The engine is serviced with 10W40 full synthetic with ZDD+ zinc additive.  Although I have used a lead additive in premium unleaded gas, it runs much better on 100 octane or greater leaded fuel.

'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.

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.
