 THIS IS A NO RESERVE LISTING

This is my 1979 Plymouth Volare Wagon in superb original condition. 

The Volare is the cousin to the Dodge Aspen- this is becoming a desirable and collectible car.  Watch the values of these cars in the next couple years!  

This has got to be one of the nicest condition, most original Volare Wagons you will find for sale anywhere.  This car has had two private owners since new, both of whom were auto mechanics.  This car has always had the best mechanical care and had all the necessary service work done on time.  Consequently, this is a totally reliable, dependable, great-driving car that I'd trust to drive across the country with no worries. 

This car has the following equipment:

  • 3.7L 225cid "Super Six" 2-bbl slant-6 engine
  • automatic transmission
  • power steering
  • power brakes
  • original AM/FM radio
  • intermittent wipers
  • roof rack

This is a great old classic Mopar wagon.  Everywhere you drive, this car gets thumbs up and smiles.  You cannot fill the gas tank without being stopped and asked questions about it. 

This has always been a summer car and hasn't been exposed to salt or snow.  It is currently kept in my heated garage.

The paint and body are great.  The paint appears to be original, other than a few minor brush-touched stone nicks.  The body is straight, clean and TOTALLY SOLID.  This is an original, all-metal, no bondo body in super, super, super solid condition.  Even the bottoms of the doors are solid and clean.  The car was undercoated years ago, which probably helped keep it so clean.  The underside of the car is totally clean and solid.

The interior has survived in very presentable condition.  This interior is clean and looks darn good for the age.  The headliner is brand new.  The carpets are original and look very decent. 

The best feature of this car, no doubt, is the mechanical condition.  As I mentioned, both owners of this car have been mechanics, and this car has never been neglected.  The engine starts up great, and runs very well.  The brakes are all new- every component is new.  The suspension is tight and responsive, and the steering is smooth.  This car drives like a dream.  It is a solid, beefy, tough car that drives outstandingly well for a 35-year old car.  As I mentioned, I'd get in the car and drive it across the country with no worries. Just a quick summary of recent work done to the car includes all new brakes, new carburetor, full tuneup, new hoses and belts and much, much more. 

This is just a great old Volare wagon.  It isn't a show car, but it is probably the nicest one you will find for sale anywhere.

Here is a list of anything and everything that is wrong with the car no matter how minor: The front bench seat has some split seams and shows some wear, and the back of the front seat it has some wear, rips, etc from carrying cargo in the rear area. There are some dings on the hood.  The undercoating looks a little ugly in the doorjambs, wheelwells and under the hood.  The tires are older but have good useable tread.  

I have the clean and clear OH title for the car in hand and ready to transfer.  The mileage on the title will read 48,403 but due to the age it will read non-actual, exceeds mechanical limits.

You can fly in to Cleveland (CLE) and drive this car home.  Or for shipping, please call my friends at Angels Moving Autos at 530 245 0481.

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.

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.

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.
