By 1973, this was the hottest 'Cuda you could get, as all of the big blocks were gone. This is a very original, unmolested car that I'd call a survivor. It is a genuine "BS" vin code 'Cuda, not a Barracuda.

This car is matching numbers (engine and trans are stamped with the car's vin). Car has original fender tag and two build sheets (broadcast sheets) that document the car, and that it is in exactly the same configuration as it left the factory in 1973...same color ("Lemon Twist" yellow), correct wheels, automatic w/ slap stick shifter, console, etc. and still has the original engine and transmission. No A/C or power steering. There are a few non-stock bolt on items on the car and these are the rear spoiler, the carburetor and intake manifold, exhaust headers, and the ignition coil.

Car is very nice but not perfect. Some areas need cosmetic attention and attest to the "survivor nature" of this car. The engine bay needs some cleanup and detailing. The trunk floor under the vinyl mat needs some attention as it has some rust there. Also, some areas of interior are beginning to show their age such as seat upholstery seams splitting and the dash appears to be capped. Carpets are newer. Car currently has no radio or speakers installed.

The car runs and drives great and is currently tagged and insured. Clean PA title in hand. Mileage is unknown. Title says miles are exempt because of age, which is common on old cars in PA. Odometer works and says 25,xxx. I've always assumed that it's on its second way around.

Car is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to cancel bids and end auction if car sells through other means.

'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.

'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.

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.
