1966 Plymouth Fury I Station Wagon, 6-pass. on 2040-cars
Springfield, Oregon, United States
|
Up for auction is my '66 Plymouth Fury I , 6-pass. station wagon. This car lived in the eastern high deserts of Washington & Oregon...virtually rust free! No rot anywhere, not even in the spare tire well. And it still has the Owner's Certicard... BODY: Original paint, all the glass is good (no cracks), but there are some scrapes on passenger side doors. Those 2 pieces of trim are missing. And there is a scrape on rear quarter also. There are small specs of surface rust on sharp edges where paint has worn thin. Roof rack is pretty nice too, but the back cross piece is bent down a little. All the trim & tags like "Golden Commando" are there. The problem area is the hood; it's puckered up in front... and the grill is pushed up on right side only. The frame behind it is not bent - just the grill. All the windows roll up & down, except tailgate window: it went down but not back up. ENGINE: A 383 big block "Golden Commando". I put a test battery in, and it turns over easily. It does need plug wires...it's missing the coil wire. 2 bbl carb I'm sure needs cleaned out. A mechanic could have this car running in a few hours. The gas tank needs cleaned out too. Car has been setting a while. Tranny is the 3-spd Torqueflite...not sure if it has any problems. Gear selector works fine. Mileage shows 43,522. INTERIOR: Back seat still has plastic cover on it! Door panels have been baked on top on front doors. Still original carpet... Headliner panels look great, though one is coming off the track ad needs pushed back in. Dash looks great, with just one inch-long crack from radio speaker to edge. Aftermarket later radio. Front seat fabric is brittle. ELECTRICAL: I put a test battery in the car, and this is what I found: High & Low beams both work, right signal, left does not-maybe a bulb, dome light works, turn signals in back OK, running lights OK. I didn't test brake lights, or the wipers because I didn't want to risk scratching glass. Antenna is missing, but I have another one that will work, that I will include. TIRES: old tires hold air. Missing one hubcap. The original right front wheel is in the spare well, and matches the other 3. This is a pretty decent old station wagon, that needs to be saved. How often do you find them with NO rust? I do not have a title for it, but will provide a bill of sale. Please call or email with any questions. Terry at 541-726-8467. Eves (PST) are best for reaching me. I can help with transporting on my end, like towing it down to the pick-up point. Choosing a transporter is buyers responsibility. Thanks for looking! |

'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.
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.
