1974 Plymouth Barracuda Base 340ci on 2040-cars
Osceola, Indiana, United States
For Sale, 1974 Plymouth Barracuda Resto Mod. Very nice condition , driver quality, painted a 2008 Chrysler intimidator yellow, BC/CC. This Cuda started out life as a red, 318 automatic but was color changed and a slightly built 340 added. The guy I purchased the car from owns an auto body shop and did the work himself. They did a nice job on the color change and the paint looks very good with a small amount of orange peel in places. The car was lowered as you can see and it gives it a Gangster look. It wasn't welded in place so if you don't like the look you can take out the blocks and lift it back up. It has a very large Stahl converter(5500 is what they told me)and a 904 trans that was rebuilt before I got it. Nice rims and tires and the interior is in excellent shape with a very tiny split in the drivers seat. Has the Rally dash with no cracks but the clock and the tach doesn't work as they didn't hook it back up after the motor change. If I were to keep her, Id pull the automatic on the column and put a 4 speed in her. either straight on the floor or add a counsel and put it in there. The bumpers had the bumperettes removed and were painted to match the body. All lights work and shes pretty loud with the short pipes coming off the mufflers. There is no rust on the car as the one small section where there was rust was cut out and metal added. According to the former owner this was a barn find and it took em awhile to rebuild her to drive...NOT to be a trailer queen. The trunk is very clean as well with no rust . I couldn't get very good pictures from underneath as she sits so low but its very clean with no problems to note. There is an electric fuel pump on her as well as an electric cooling fan. They are getting harder and harder to find without spending huge money so get it now while the price is reasonable. There is no warranty and I will not ship it as that is your responsibility. The car will not be released until all funds are received. You are welcome to inspect it before the auction ends. Sorry no trades and no foreign buyers. Any questions please ask and Ill try to get to the as fast as a working man can. In case youre wondering, Im selling as my job situation changed and I have no time to play with her, someone else can have a blast with her.

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.

'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.
