This car was purchased from the original family that purchased the car in 1968.  I bought the car from the nephew who got the car from his aunt who got the car from her mother.  In other words the original owner of the car was the grandmother of the person I bought the car from.

This Valiant still wears about 70% of it's original paint and still shiny although the original paint is wearing thin in a few spots. The driver's rear quarter was hit at some point but it is still original metal. The paint on this quarter is about two shades darker that the rest of the car.

The engine is the 225 Super Slant 6 connected to a 3 speed automatic.  The engine runs excellent with no smoke and the transmission shifts nicely.

The car has power steering and manual 4-wheel drum brakes.

The interior is 100% original including un-cracked soft dash pads, headliner, carpet, door panels and vinyl seat covers.  The front bench seat cover is just starting to open up at two seams in the seat bottom toward the passenger's side.  The original headliner is in excellent condition. 

This car also has the optional light package which includes map light, trunk light, glove box light and fender mounted turn signal indicators.

Included in this sale is a complete factory heater/air conditioning box with all the in dash controls and a compressor.  I have already added the condensing coil in front of the radiator.  You will just need the correct pulleys, brackets and lines.

Everything works except the original AM radio.

The only rust through is on the drivers inner fender apron near the hinge area where all of the cars tend to rust.  There is some surface rust behind both front fenders that can be seen in the pictures.  The trunk area has no rust through including the spare tire well but there is some scaling at the seam between the trunk pan at the the riser to the rear seat area.

Please remember you are bidding to buy the car not for a chance to decide if you really want it.  Make sure you have all funds available and permission to make the purchase if necessary.

All shipping costs are the responsibility of the buyer.  I will make myself available to the carrier for pick-up.

A $500.00 deposit via PayPal is required within 24 hours of close of sale.  This is a non refundable deposit.

Balance of payment must be made in cash or Postal Money Order. If a money order is used the car will not be released for shipping until all funds have cleared.

US Marshal's classic muscle car auction officially in the books

Thu, 25 Sep 2014

The 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.

SRT belatedly claims Plymouth Prowler as one of its own

Wed, 19 Dec 2012

Before 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.

Barrett-Jackson 2014: 1970 Plymouth Hemi Superbird passes half a million dollars

Sat, 18 Jan 2014

The 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.
