Hurley, Wisconsin, United States

1970 Plymouth Roadrunner equipped with numbers matching 383ci big block and 3 speed automatic transmission. Car is pretty much brand new top to bottom. It started life as a cream colored car with factory white vinyl top and factory go wing. Also codes out for the premium burnt orange interior. At the owners request we refinished the exterior to factory show quality PPG Hemi orange. Clear coat has been color sanded and buffed. Everything soft part on the car is new including but not limited to the door gaskets, trunk gaskets, windshield gasket, under hood rubbers, vinyl top, legendary interior, trunk mat, carpet, and dash pad. The gauges have been refaced and the console refurbished. Brakes are new all the way around and all of the steering components have been serviced and/or replaced. Wheels and tires are new, with a 4 wheel alignment. The engine is completely rebuilt to factory specs. Transmission has been serviced and is in perfect working order. The exhaust is completely new with flowmaster mufflers and new factory chrome tips. The original 8 3/4 rear end is also serviced with the factory 3.91 ratio gears that it codes out for. The engine is original to the car but the transmission is believed to be out of a different car years ago. The bumpers have been professionally straightened and re-chromed and the wheel well moldings are brand new. The entire restoration was completed last year and has only had a little over 100 miles on it since completion. As for the body, it is a rust free New Mexico tub that only required new center trunk pans. Other than that it did not require any patch work. This car is a real beauty and head turner. It is only in need of some very minor details to be a near perfect car. Small items that are still needed include but not limited to the vent cables, glove lock bezel, correct battery and cables. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. You can call 715-561-5635 but email is preferred. Thanks for looking!

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.

'Blood Muscle' auction to sell impressive collection of ill-begotten classic cars

Wed, 30 Jul 2014

The 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.

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.
