This 1969 Plymouth Road Runner 2 Door Hardtop was assembled at the Los Angeles Plant. It's spent it's life in Southern California, ( No Rust!) I bought it from a collector less than one year ago. I just don't have the room to store it or the time to drive it.To many other vehicles. He took a straight rust free So. Cal car and did a total ground up restoration on it. The car has been professionally restored. He spent over $11K on the engine alone. I was told its Numbers Matching Engine (but I have not confirmed ) 383 4 Barrel, has a hydrolic roller cam shaft, adjustable roller rockers and 10:1 Compression JD Pistons. They upgraded the carb to a new performance Edelbrock carb. The work had been completed recently, less that 1000 miles ago by a famous mechanic that worked with Boyd Coddington in Whittier. He said it's been dyno'd at over 500 horse power. The paint is Factory R6 Red and its looks excellent, and very well done. I'd say a 9 out of 10. The upholstery is super nice brought back to new stock interior. (some stitching on drivers side seat is loose). The car has its rebuilt and upgraded Dana 60 transmission with the Hurst shifter. The interior has new black headliner, door panels, dash pad, carpet, seat upholstery, steering wheel, etc. This is a show car with great drivability, awesome handling and reliability. It sounds strong, shifts well, and runs excellent. Milage on the odometer says 91,815 miles, and I would guess that is original. I have nothing negative I can say about the car. It needs nothing to be show worthy. The horn does not work but, my guess is the wiring needs to be checked and corrected .The previous owner said well over $50K was spent on this car. If you have questions or want to view the car, call 949-887-3335. Thanks for looking.

'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.

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.
