1965 Plymouth Fury Iii Wagon With Custom 440 Hp Engine-new Chrome- Mopar Mopar on 2040-cars
Los Angeles, California, United States
|
I have been the proud owner of this 1965 Plymouth Fury III Wagon since 1997. I have kept nearly all service history and backup receipts from the 16 years we have been together and will include all of this paperwork with the car in a binder. The car has many new features including a big block 440 HP engine I put under the hood one year ago. The 440 which was put into my wagon only had 50k miles on it and it runs strong and fast. The torque on this car is very forceful! I have added new chrome bumpers on the front and back, new mirror and a gorgeous new black paint job. I have taken off the automatic tree shifter and added a Hurst Dual Gate shifter in the center column, which is very cool. The car has all it's trim in all the right places, the headliner ceiling is in excellent shape. The engine is quite clean as you can see from the photos. It does like a 5 minute warm up period in the morning before hitting the streets, but once warm, it's ready for duty. It's quite simply the best looking and best running sport wagon in Los Angeles, hands down! The back window is electric, controlled from the dashboard, which is convenient for groceries or loading packages. There is a subwoofer in the back bottom storage well of the car. The back seat folds down to extend the bed in back. I've comfortably camped in this car after being "rained out" at campgrounds. I am a photographer/film director and this has been a great car over the years for loading photo gear for dozens of shoots. This car has been seen in Tommy Lee photo shoots as well as in Cypress Hill's "Whats Your Name, Whats Your Number?" music video, please UTube it and see the car featured many times in the clip! The two things this car needs that come to mind are as follows 1. The air conditioning/heater needs attention, I can remember once upon a time it would rival a modern day car and became such an icebox, but any mechanic can handle the job. 2. The speedometer does not work, this should not be too big of a fix it project. The door speakers are without their covers and the cover for the spare tire and the spare tire are missing. Since listing this ad, I had the tint taken off the windows and it looks twice as cool because now you can clearly see through this attractive vehicle, I will post some more photos soon.

I am also listing this car locally and reserve the right to end this auction if a local buyer acts first. I'm sure it will go quickly, as the classic wagons have become very popular and hard to come by. I do soley own the pink slip, so transaction will be very easy. Buyer will make all arrangements to pick the car up from Los Angeles area. |

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.
'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.
