Plymouth Duster 1972 on 2040-cars
Merced, California, United States
|
Breakdown information:
The color is PPG DBC Lava Orange with 3 coats of Gold Pearl. The car was stripped to bare metal and all metal was fixed properly then PPG etching was applied then PPG K38 Surfacer and blocked to perfection. There is 6 coats of PPG DCU2002 clearcoat and it was wetsanded and buffed for a real nice deep wet show finish. Tuned engine is a 69 standard bore 440 that is studded with Eagle rods, Ross Pistons, Mopar Cylinder heads, Crane gold roller rockers, Mopar cam, custom Hooker Headers into 3 inch downturns and a 950 Mighty Demon fuel injected Carb. Aluminum radiator with electric fan, but car runs 180 at the hottest regardless of weather, but I like to run it cool at 160 with fan. There is not even 1000 miles on the complete system not 5000 like the speedo reads! The trans is a 727 custom built with revese manual valve body and 3400 stall converter with 3 speed B&M shifter. The rear end is a 8 3/4 suregrip, 489 casing with 3.91 gears and Moser axles, Mopar Superstock leafsprings with QA1 shocks. Plain street radial tires ran 11.51 at 121mph shifting it at 5800 rpm with full exhaust. New stickey Mickey Thompson Drag street radials 275/60R15 and Weld Racing wheels with locking nuts all around. Car went 10.89 open exhaust and drag slicks. Fronts are new Classics 165/80R15. Front discs with fairly new brake pads and new rear shoes with drums. Car has not been raced or abused, just to the track once to get stats! Yes it is fast, fun and loud! When you get it mad, it is very mean and has a pretty bad attitude! Smoke-free and always covered! It gets a bath every two weeks and a wax every 3 months! When it's thirsty, I add a bottle of 104 Octane booster to a full tank of premium gas, usually from Costco, because I like it that way. 6 point roll cage with 5 point racing harness for driver, regular for passenger. I do not recommend any children or pets to be in this car, bad for hearing! New truck battery and fuel cell in trunk! Fresh fluids and new NGK race plugs! Master cutoff switch along with hidden start switch. Wheelie bars are not necessary since the suspension is setup strong, however the front can come up about 3 inches when you get on it, but that' it. I will take them off for shipping purposes, but they are included with the sell price. Has over $25,000 invested. NADA does not have category for the way my Duster is setup, incidentally however, my Insurance through Hagerty has its worth at $25,000. The market is ever increasing, so if I don't sell, no problem, I will just simply keep as a part of my collection! Street legal with working lights and markers. Currently licensed and registered in California with a clean and clear title in my name. I have a plethora of pics and I can create new video upon request. Have questions, just ask! Not interested in receiving personal negative comments, trades or marketing antics! It's not worth lowering your rating. Bid wisely not impulsively and ONLY bid if you have complete funds.

'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.
'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.
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.
