PAINT, BODY, FRAME & SUSPENSION The car is painted Dark Copper Poly Metallic. The rotisserie restoration was completed in 2011 and all of the suspension and mechanicals were rebuilt. See restoration photos (BTW, the photos are scans from film, not digital). I have owned it since July 2012. It was showing 34000 miles when I got it, and still presents well. The undercarriage is super clean with some wear and tear from being driven about 3000 miles. GLASS, CHROME The windshield is tinted and all windows operate and line-up perfectly. The front and rear bumpers are rechromed and in very good condition. The stainless trim is in great shape. INTERIOR The black vinyl interior is 100% original and still in immaculate shape. The console and glove compartment doors operate well. Has seat belts front and rear. (What you see attached to the steering column are hand-controls.) DRIVE TRAIN The strong running original numbers matching 440 makes excellent power and runs great. This engine runs extremely smooth and very easy to drive in any given traffic condition. The GTX has excellent drivability and runs cool, even in stop and go traffic. This drive train combo runs and drives very well in all conditions whether highway or city driving. The 8 3/4 ” rear end has 2:93 gears. It also has an original Dual- Snorkle Air Cleaner with a new 800cfm Edelbrock Carb (the original carb is included). Also includes a car cover and has always been kept in a heated garage since the restoration was completed.

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.
'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.
