I own a restoration business and am selling my 1970 GTX to make room for more restoration projects. I bought this car in 2006. It has original paint but not the right motor. I have a photo album documenting the car from the beginning to end of the restoration, inside and out.. I disassembled the car and had it dipped. There was very little rust. From there it was a 3 year restoration. I have the original build sheet and fender tag. I also have complete paperwork from Galen V. Govier. The car turned out to be 1 of 4 registered with them. Highly optioned: AC, PB, PS, PW, cruise control, 6-way seat, AM/FM stereo 8 track plus many more options. I built this car to drive, like I do with all others. The engine is date coded 11/6/69 and the car was built 11/6/69. Tom Stamey, a professional high performance engine builder, built the motor. It is a 499 cubic inch stroker motor. Motor runs strong, bored 0.45over, squared line decked and honed, roller motor, Eagle h-beam rods, Eagle crank, 11.5 to 1 compression Indy 906 heads, stainless steal valves, PWR roller rockers and Crane roller lifters. It produces about 500 HP and runs cool. I installed a Snow Performance Methanol system to take away detonation. I rebuilt the transmission with 2600 stall SMR converter. The AC is ICE cold and is charged with R-12. I had a JVC stereo and amp installed. I used 20 inch Foose wheels on the back and 18 inch on the front. It has a 3.50 gear ratio sure grip in the rear, at 70 MPH the RPM is at 2700. N0 expense was spared in this restoration! I used as many NOS parts as I could and have well over $100,000.00 invested in this car. If you have any questions feel free to call me at 863-604-7684 and ask for Mike. The name of my shop is Michael's Auto Restorations in Winter Haven, Florida. The car will be on display at the Gatornational March 13 - 16, 2014.

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.

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.
'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.
