This 1970 Road Runner is in amazing original condition. I would venture to say it truly is one of the finest unrestored 1970 MOPARS to be found anywhere. It has won past national shows in survivor class and is currently featured in this months June issue of Hemmings Muscle Machine Magazine. The Hemmings editor did a test drive for the feature just weeks before the article came out in June and loved the way this '70 Road Runner drove. It really is one of the best driving Mopars I have ever driven as it drives just like it came off the showroom floor in 1970. I believe pictures are worth a thousand words so I will let the pictures do the majority of the talking. The original owner babied this vehicle from new until 1991 when the second owner purchased it with only 43K on it after an extensive search to find the best all original Road Runner he could possibly find and buy. Since that time it has strictly been used for shows and special occasions traveling a little over a thousand miles a year and I have owned this Road Runner for around ten years of that time. The drive train is numbers matching and has never been apart and runs as smooth and powerful as the day it was made. Suspension is tight and again simply feels as good as the day it drove out of the showroom. Please check out the pictures carefully and I think you will see you would be hard pressed to locate a nicer unrestored muscle car in a body style, color combo, or this great original condition anywhere. This Road Runner does have a perfect original: build sheet, dash vin plate, door tag, fender tag, and good owner history information. 

Quick notes: 
1) I have put the correct high-end Mopar maintenance free, concourse & period correct with red caps battery into the Road Runner and the new battery does appear in the magazine feature pictures and is what is now in and will stay with the Road Runner. 

2) This Road Runner is in excellent over-all mechanical condition to my knowledge and I am not aware of any mechanical issues that need attention. She starts easy cold or warm, never runs hot, and absolutely runs fantastic. A real pleasure to drive.


3) you may come inspect this vehicle during the auction run time. Just call me at (626)602-4054 and make arrangements. My name is Kurt

4) I reserve the right to end auction early should the Road Runner be sold prior to auction ending or any other reason and no longer be available for sale

5) When I purchased this Road Runner, it actually came with a set of 14" Rally rims. I removed the 14" rims and put the 15" Rally rims with Good Year Ployglas tires off my '70 convertible Cuda onto this car to give it a more aggressive look. I am willing to negotiate a lower price than the $42,500 if you are willing to let me keep the 15" Rally rims now on the Road Runner and you purchase it with the 14" Rallys that came on it when I bought it. The 14" Rallys look almost identical, just one inch diameter smaller and have radial tires mounted on them instead of ply tires.

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.

'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.
