This car is a show quality example of a 'high performance E-Body fish', restored to "better than" factory condition. I had an appraisal done last year and and it was given a true # 1 condition based on national standards by John Crank and Tony Rankin in Austin, Texas. They have more than 60 years of combined professional experience selling, restoring, collecting and appraising investment quality automobiles, and personally told me that this was an outstanding example of national show quality just completed frame off rotisserie restoration, and one of the nicest they had seen in years. This is one you don't want to miss if you are looking for an investment quality classic car.
It has a 440 CID Motor, pistol grip 4-speed, 391 shure grip differential, shaker hood with a large radiator and 11 inch factory clutch. Rally dash with 150 speedometer. It has front disc brakes and front and rear sway bars. A one way vac valve on brake booster and snap in mounting bracket for fuel filter. Fuel pump and starter are high performance and way better than the original. So many details to mention. This car was born with a 318 cubic inch motor with a 3-speed, in Curious Yellow. Same owner for 35 years, with over 25 years and many fine donors it has become one of the most sought after E-Body clones with all original factory parts, including an original factory grill. It also has a new C/D Stereo that was installed without altering the dash in any way. Vintage AC easily installed. It was restored in Texas, driven onto a Transport truck and then straight into storage. The restoration on this car was done very meticulously down to every nut and bolt. Every part is either new or restored. It is ready to run cross country like a striped ass ape!
As quoted in the appraisal "1970 is arguably the most desirable year to own as it embodies John Herlitz's original aggressive design with its more attractive two headlight nose, and is one of only two years where this revolutionary styling could be mated to several truly high performance engines. With it's period correct Plymouth big block engine, 440-6 hood, 4-speed, this is a classic car in true #1 condition and great patience and skill was taken in restoring it to better than new condition. There is no way to create or restore a Barracuda to the standards of this vehicle without having owned many excellent donor cars for years, and accumulating what are now very rare parts over decades."
Any serious bidders/buyers are welcome to come see this car in person if able to. .I will answer emails with straight forward, general questions. If you are a serious buyer with any questions please call. (512) 627-7027. I can email any pictures of anything requested.
The winning bidder must contact me within 24 hours to make payment arrangements. If no contact is made I will relist the vehicle. If the reserve is not met I may contact the high bidder to offer a second chance option.

'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 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.
