1972 Plymouth Barracuda 340 & 727 Auto Red Street/strip Show Worthy Look!! on 2040-cars
Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, United States
For sale 1972 Barracuda BH23g2 small block car upgraded to a freshened (1972 date-code correct) 450hp 340 small block & 727 auto for the car. Some great parts on the 340 include Mopar Performance purpleshaft 292/.509 cam, Speedpro forged flat-top pistons, Edelbrock Torker intake, 750 street Holley, Ported J-heads & Harland Sharp roller rockers, 8qt Moroso pan and windage tray, Melling HV oil pump. Basically a bullet-proof little small block ready for street/strip action that runs on pump gas 92! The 727 has a shift kit and other upgrades, new 10" 3000 stall converter, etc. The engine/trans are currently out of the car & ready for you to install. I can install the engine on K-member for transportation- if needed. The only part to purchase is a small block radiator- as I had a 440 in the car before.
I bought this car in 1991 as a rust-free California car & then restored in 2004. We replaced only the right quarter panel during the restoration. Other than that, the car retains all factory sheet metal and is in great shape. The car has been used sparingly as a street/strip car since mid 1990's & stored in a climate-controlled garage ever since. Clean title, nice Build sheet & fender tag is included. Super nice full black interior w/ new carpet & sill plates. The dash is in great shape. I do not have the original front bucket seats- there are 2 race-style buckets/ only one pictured. Rear seat is perfect. Everything functions as it should, attention to every detail. Beautiful black vinyl top, chrome/stainless is flawless, flawless grille. The underside still retains the factory undercoating and is in really good condition- no scale. Remember, this car has not seen any weather since the early '80s & that was in sunny California! Alot of choices here- show car, street, drag, touring, etc. Bullet-proof drivetrain- best of everything. Subframe connectors, chomoly 6-point cage that was professionally & thoughtfully installed to still use the factory door panels and rear seat. The rears go through the cardboard package tray. The car still retains ALL the stock components like gas tank (with 1/2" pickup- fuel gauge works!), back seat, dash, door panels, sun visors, rearview mirror, etc.- nothing butchered as so many car's are. No holes cut in firewall, rear, trunk, etc. All the lights, signals, horn and other functions work nicely. I would classify the Cuda as a show worthy street car on steroids. Jump in it and not be worried about breaking anything when you stomp on it and/or take it to the strip! There is ALOT of time and money spent on the car over the years and always pampered. The car is priced right, unlike most other E-bodies that are sky-high priced. Save some $$ and take your spouse out for dinner too (in the Cuda of course!). Here are the stats: 90% original sheet metal (one quarter replaced AMD); painted Dodge Viper red base/clear & still is beautiful show chrome- rechromed bumpers hinged or lift-off six-pack glass hood (by AAR fiberglass) nice solid hood Centerline Autodrag wheels 15x10 & 15x4 8-3/4 Mopar rear housing with Moser race axles & 3" studs, back-braced, new brake pads on 10 x 2.5 drums, 4.30 w/spool (#489 case), new 29" DOT tires Brand new Caltracs, monoleafs & Rancho 9-way shocks Factory front disc brakes- new pads Super Stock rear-located battery 6-point chromoly cage w/swingout door bar (not installed) & frame ties SX (now Aeromotive) fuel system with return (AN -8 up; -6 back); braided lines full frame ties, driveshaft loop, etc. NHRA legal car Turbo Action cheetah shifter w/ linelock integrated into factory center console- looks sweet. Full Auto Meter mechanical gauges, wideband O2, Cyberdyne digital oil, trans, fuel gauges. MSD 6AL Ignition & Blaster coil H-pipe 3" exhaust system w/ Flowmaster 44's & turndowns right at the axle. removes all in one piece for drag use. Hooker Super Comp 340 headers w/ 1-3/4 primaries & 3" collectors Please ask any & all questions before purchase. I will be adding more pictures this week. Please message me with your requests. I can help arrange shipping- I know several "mopar only" transporters. NOTE: the last couple pics are to view engine bay- NOT the 440 engine which is not included. I will be adding the 340 pics soon. The pic of the Cuda on the trailer is from 1991. All others are current pics. thanks! Feel free to call me at 608 825 4932. Let's get you into this Cuda for Spring cruis'n! |

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.
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.
