1967 Plymouth Belvedere Gtx on 2040-cars
Shapleigh, Maine, United States
|
This is a 1967 Plymouth GTX that has been in storage for over 30 years. Last state inspection on the windshield says 1974. Original 440 is missing, body shows a repaint and some previous work done on both 1/4 panels before it was parked. Floors, trunk, rails, and torsion bar crossmember are very solid and require little to no work. A 1965 383 motor is in it and it runs very good, trans works and it has the original open 3:23 rear with the GTX factory 6 leaf spring package. Minimally working drum brakes all around, manual steering and it only has the factory hi-flow manifolds for exhaust. The are no exhaust pipes, at all. . Car runs and yard drives, engine will not hold water due to 2 rusty freeze plugs. Factory 26 inch radiator and shroud are still with the car. Fuel tank is out and a temporary can is in use in the trunk. Car can be driven onto a transporter. Will be sold with a set of very old mounted bias ply tires on the original rims with the pictured factory hubcaps. Interior is ok, good dash, headliner has holes, rear seat is nice as are most of the door panels. Has the buddy seat and column mounted shifter. Carpet was pulled some years ago and does not come with it. The body is fairly straight, pix show minor surface rust at the cowl and at the corners around the back window. There appears to be some additional bodywork to the bottom of both front fenders and maybe some to the outside bottom of the doors. Doors, hood, trunk, windows all operate nicely and the emergency brake still works. Drivers side rocker in rear has a rusty soft spot, easy to fix, not structural and the other side is fine. Car will be sold with a bill of sale and a current registration. Maine will NOT issue a title for a vehicle this old. Fender tag is on the fender and matches door post tag. I have more pix available to send. Reserve is low and the car is priced for its condition, not for it's "potential". Bidders with less than 10 transactions will be cancelled and any negative feedbacks will also be cancelled. Car is for sale locally and auction may end without notice. This is a project car that could be an easy fix, not a life-time nightmare. Fix the common issues the car has and put it on the road. Trying to make them magazine quality will only shorten your life, marriage and bank account. Drive them! Email any questions, I am open, honest and give accurate descriptions. No BS here. I would appreciate the same. $500 paypal deposit required within 24 hrs. |

SRT belatedly claims Plymouth Prowler as one of its own
Wed, 19 Dec 2012Before Chrysler had Street and Racing Technology, it had Performance Vehicle Operations. What the two entities have in common, before SRT became its own brand, of course, is that each was created to take Chrysler and Dodge (and Plymouth, before it was unceremoniously killed off) vehicles to the next level of style and performance.
We'll leave the question of whether or not the old Plymouth (and later Chrysler) Prowler was ultimately a stylish, performance-oriented car to you, but the boys and girls currently leading the SRT charge at the Pentastar headquarters are keen to accept the retro-rod into the fold.
According to the automaker, all of SRT's current high-performance models owe a debt of gratitude to the old Prowler, due mostly to that car's use of lightweight bits and pieces and innovative construction techniques. If nothing else, the fact that the Prowler's frame is "the largest machined automotive part in history" is pretty cool. Read all the details here.
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.
