Hi and thanks for looking. This is a 1970 Barracuda that started life with a 318 and an auto with console. The person I bought it from has had it sitting in the back of his race shop since 1979. He had 3 1970 cudas sitting under blankets and I bought 2 of them and he kept one. He was going to race them and just before he got going on them he decided to race chevies and went with a 67 nova and a 66 chevelle so these 3 plymouths have been sitting inside for 35+ years. This car has got great floors and trunk and the only spot of rust is just the outside of the lower rear fenders and they will be a real easy fix. The front fenders are original but will need work especially the drivers side front bottom dented and tapped out.The car was FK5 Burnt orange metalic with a black vinyl top and black interior. The vinyl top and carpet were taken out in 1979 so the roof looks perfect. I am selling this car almost complete but you will need to restore it. The car comes with a 1970 440 with HP exhaust manifolds that will need to be rebuilt as it has been sitting for 35 years and a 727 out of a 1970 Cuda 383 and it is rebuilt. The rear end is an 8 3/4" with air shocks. The steering column is out of another car so you will have to change to a floor shift.The interior comes with the front bucket seats out of a 71 and the rear seat,door panels and rear panels,kick panels sun visors and the console out of a 71. It comes with the original windows and stainless trim. The front side windows were taken out but the guides and that are still in there and I have the windows and they go with it. Also comes with a set of 70 seat backs to make these correct for 70. Also you get the non rally dash complete with switches trim pieces and factory clock and the switch for the rear defroster which the car came with. It also comes with the factory AM radio. The car also came with power steering and I think power brakes. The heater is also there and real nice with the defrost vent. Has the wipers and the wiper motor that will need rebuilt. The rally wheels are 14 inch and the 2 tires with raised white letters are about 30 years old but hold air fine and do the other 2. The trunk lid has a hole that will need to be fixed where they had a hood pin. The hood is a rally one off from a 72. It will come with a 26 inch radiator and shroud from a 1970 big block. Also has the gas tank and filler tube. This would also make a great rebody for that rusted out 440-6 pack or Hemi as it is a Hamtramck car with no AC. I don't have the fender tag or the dash pad tag. Other parts I have for the car if someone is interested is an original disk brake setup and a K member with the sway bar and an original grille. These are not in the auction but buyer has first chose if they want to buy separate.I am sure I forgot something so let me know if you have any questions.

'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 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.
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.
