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!

'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.

'Blood Muscle' auction to sell impressive collection of ill-begotten classic cars

Wed, 30 Jul 2014

The old saying goes that if you can't do the time, don't do the crime. But being a criminal can involve more than just taking a trip to the big house; it can also mean losing possessions purchased from any ill-gotten gains. Still, one man's loss is another's gain, and if you're in Lodi, NJ, on September 12, you stand the chance to buy some of the ultimate muscle cars from the US Marshals in what is being gruesomely nicknamed the Blood Muscle auction.
The grisly moniker was earned because all of the vehicles belonged to the president of a blood testing company who is facing prison time for alleged bribery, according to Hemmings. After all, they are muscle cars bought with actual blood money. The seven-vehicle collection includes some of the ultimate muscle cars ever made, and the original buyer clearly had an eye for rarity.
This cornucopia of V8 power includes a teal 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 429, a 1967 Shelby GT500 Mustang, an orange 1970 Plymouth Superbird, a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS convertible and perhaps most prized of all - a trio of 1969 Yenko Chevys with a Chevelle, Nova and Camaro all represented. From the included photos, all of them look to be in fantastic condition.
