Columbus, Georgia, United States

Okay Mopar fans here's an outstanding restoration project for somebody who can weld, paint and put an old vintage Muscle car back on the road. Here's the Good: the car floors are 95-97 % solid, engine compartment is excellent. I have an outstanding buldge hood, 2-4 possibly really nice front fenders needing a little TLC. The doors have very little repairing needed. All the glass is good and can be reused. The front seats need to be recovered but in good condition considering the age of the car. The bad is the trunk floor and rear window area and upper trunk area. If you walk around the car and go behind it you can see the extensive damage to to water and rust. Here's the positive, I have a new 1 piece trunk foor, a sub frame replacement that goes under the trunk floor by the passenger side area. I have the raw sheet metal from another car to replace the entire area window area and top of the trunk area. That's were a car guy who can weld will be able to put this car back together. The rear quarters need replacing or repair by a good body guy. The car body overall for it's age looks pretty good. The engine and transmission is a toss up. I also have a 440 HP block with 2 cranks and some other parts to rebuild a monster. This auction is for the body and 440 HP engine block and parts. The car can remain stored here for 45-60 days if it's paid for up front. The car will roll onto a trailer with no issues. There are a bunch of parts that have already been removed. I cut the trunk rusted areas out and cleaned the frame rails. I will post more pictures soon. I have a 383 engine disassembled that if the buyer perfers that engine they can have that versus the 440 listed. You must ask for the 383 versus the 440 engine parts. email questions! The fender Tag information is listed above in condition description. I posted a few pictures of the extra pieces of sheet metal and a few of the subframe. The subframe has been sprayed with a rust stop and these pieces are solid from the front to rear with the extra rail that can be mounted under the new trunk floor. There will be welding needed, so be prepared for that. You can bounce the car up and down and not worry about the left spring areas. The roof sheet metal for repair is solid with surface rust but can be cleaned for welding to the top rear window area. The trunk spares are solid and rear window channel pieces. I will post some more pictures later. Please Do Not bid or Buy if you are or will back out. This car sold once already and the Resto Shop backed out. Please, if your a car guy, you know exactly what I am saying! Please ask questions if you are not sure!

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.
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.
