After 2 1/2 years of fun I have decided to sell my 1970 Cuda. I purchased it already restored, frame on. The restoration was completed in 2009 and I purchased it in May 2011. I have since put 1300 miles, a lot of time and a lot of money into improving or correcting items that I felt needed attention. The body work and paint were pretty damn good. The base coat is a GM silver with the AAR hood, top fenders, tail panel, and wing are painted darker silver. The car did not have much rust but had partial rear quarters and front floors replaced. At that time the marker lights and rear tail panel were smoothed to lose the trunk lock (there is a latch behind the plate). There are some aftermarket side mirrors that look great. The underside including the frame, floors, frame connectors and wheel wells were undercoated with the same silver body color. The trunk has also been coated.
Under the hood is a rebuilt date coded, stock bore 440 with Demon Six Shooter carbs, Edelbrock high rise intake, ProSource aluminum heads, purple cam, MSD ignition, MSD billet distributor, billet high flow fuel filter, billet thermostat cover, Indy valve covers, Fully polished TruTrac system with large compressor, 140 amp alternator, power steering pump, polished PS reservoir, and aluminum radiator with electric fans and polished overflow tube (car will not get over 200 digress even when temperatures hit 100). The firewall and engine compartment have been smoothed. Car has PS and manual brakes with disc front and drums rear. There is a rebuilt 727 auto with I think a 2200 stall. Rear end is a rebuilt 8 3/4 with 3.55 gears and 31 spline axels. Engine has ceramic coated Headman headers with 2.5 pipes and hooker mufflers. Suspension was all new and lowered in front with rear leafs moved inward and wheel wells shaved (guess the builder considered narrowing the rear end and putting wider tires on but never invested the money).
As for the interior, is all new. New liner, leather seats, restored door panels, new carpet, new dash with Auto-Meter gauges, Lokar shifter, new seat belts, new rear window panel, and all new trim panels. Car has A/C and heat which run through a controller in the glove box. There is a MP3 CD stereo with 6 speakers. Windshield, back glass and driver door glass are all new.
The wheels are Intro with 17x8 fronts and 18x10 rears. The tires are 235/45 front and 275/40 Falkens. The car has HID headlights and LED taillights. There is also a remote alarm with perimeter sensors and power door locks.
This car is a 9/10 with no nicks, scratches, dents or chips. I bought the car to drive it and have fun and that is what I did. It has only been in one local car show in which it took best in class. There are no problems with the car mechanically, electronically or with the body and paint. I cannot think of anything I have left out but please do not hesitate to PM me if you are a serious buyer with serious interest. There is between $80-90k invested in this car. If you know Mopar, than you know nothing is cheap. Thank you for looking. You can also email me or call if you want more info.
Asking $58,000

'71 Plymouth Hemi Cuda Convertible sells for $3.5M [w/video]
Mon, 16 Jun 2014
We're plenty used to seeing classic cars selling for millions of dollars. It's just that they're usually European: Ferraris, Bugattis, Mercedes and the like. There are some rare American exceptions, usually wearing the names Duesenberg or Shelby. But what we have here is the most expensive Chrysler product ever sold at auction.
The vehicle in question is a Plymouth Barracuda - specifically a 1971 Hemi Cuda Convertible, chassis #BS27R1B315367 - that Mecum Auctions just sold after eight solid minutes of feverish bidding for a high bid of $3.5 million at its auction in Seattle, Washington. That figure positively eclipses the $2.2 million paid for a strikingly similar Hemi Cuda (chassis #BS27R1B269588) fetched nearly seven years ago in Scottsdale and another that was the first muscle car to break the million-dollar mark in 2002.
SRT belatedly claims Plymouth Prowler as one of its own
Wed, 19 Dec 2012Before 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 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.
