Correct Rotisserie Restoration, 440ci., 4 Speed/hurst, 3.54 Dana 60, Track Pac on 2040-cars
Bloomington, Illinois, United States

Restored to factory specifications in early 2009, this fine example of a '69 Plymouth GTX won Concourse Gold at the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals in Chicago on 11/22/209. It is a numbers matching (original) drivetrain, and most of the bolt on items are date code correct. The car comes with it's original build sheet, which has been de-coded and authenticated by MOPAR guru Galen Govier.
All mechanicals - engine, transmission, rear end, and suspension have been rebuilt with new components. A new wiring harness was installed, and all electrical components (gauges, etc.) were refurbished. The interior was gutted, and restored to like new condition - new foam and seat covers from Legendary Interiors, dash and arm rests recovered by Just Dashes, new carpet, headliner, door cards, window cranks, package tray, and a new center console that cost $1,600.00 - assembly required. The engine bay, trunk, and underside of this car are all highly detailed, and I finished the job right by having the the hood, fenders, trunk lid and doors gapped to perfection. This 1969 Plymouth GTX is a very nice quality piece that can be shown, as well as driven. Scorch Red is a striking color, and I always get lots of compliments on the rare Pewter interior. The only divergence from factory specs are the radial tires for a smoother ride. The car has approximately 630 miles since the restoration, and has never seen rain. It looks great, and runs strong...

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.
