Beautiful Rallye Red Road Runner With Hot 440 6 Pack Motor on 2040-cars

Year:1970 Mileage:75000
Location:

United States

United States

 Up for bids is a 1970 Road Runner, real RM23 car. This car comes from a pampered collection and has been properly stored throughout its ownership.

 Straight clean body appears to be originally rallye red. Since there is no fender tag, I can only say the inside of the trunk lid and other jamb areas appear original. The paint shines brilliantly and only appears to have had work on the quarters and trunk floor. The rest of the car appears untouched.
 
The drivetrain includes a very hot 440 motor with sixpack induction. More power than you can ask for is transmitted to a stout shifting 727 transmission and 3.55 sure grip rear. Very smooth and strong makes this car lots of fun to drive.

The cooling system features an aluminum radiator and spal fans to keep cool which it does very well. Front and rear suspensions have been rebuilt also feature QA1 adjustable shocks. This car is tight and tracks very well. The rear rally wheels have been widened for a nicer stance. The front brakes have been upgraded with 4 piston calipers.

The interior is clean and has be completely redone. The dash features a full complement of gauges that all work. There is also a billet floor shifter. If you are looking for a tight fast muscle car based on an original Road Runner, this is the car!

'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.

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.

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.
