This 1973 Plymouth Cuda was originally a 340/auto car. In 2003, it was totally restored with an Indy crate motor 500. One photo shows the engine spec’s as built in 2003. The engine was recently rebuilt with ported heads and a solid roller cam to add HP. Another photo shows the flow chart for the heads both before and after porting. A T&D rocker shaft was also recently installed, which makes more power now than the dyno sheet shows. The Cuda has a B.T.E. 727 built trans and 2500 converter, custom aluminum driveshaft, D.T.S. Dana 60 with 3:50 gears, a complete Cal Trak rear suspension, and a rebuilt K member with Hemi torsion bars. The car is lowered 2”. It has front and rear sway bars, Aerospace components, front/rear disc brakes, and TTI headers with 3” exhaust thru Dynomax mufflers. The car runs on 93 octane gas. It runs and drives very nice and is very fast. It has 17” front/rear wheels with Nitto tires front and Mickey Thompson rear. The interior seats and carpet are new; everything else is original and too good to replace. The car has a 6 point roll bar. The body and Viper blue pearl paint are in excellent condition – very straight and slick paint work. There is no rust in the body. It is very solid. The car has all original sheet metal. No expense was spared when built. Everything new when built. The car has been very well taken care of. Great attention to detail. Email or call (210-262-5626) me with questions or if you want more pictures. The car can be viewed by appointment. Thank you. |

'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.
'Blood Muscle' auction to sell impressive collection of ill-begotten classic cars
Wed, 30 Jul 2014The 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.
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.
