 1965 Plymouth Fury III Convertible 426 Street Wedge

You are looking at a very rare, 1965 Plymouth Fury III convertible with the factory equipped Commando 426/365h.p. street wedge engine, automatic transmission, power steering, and power top. The drivetrain is factory and numbers correct. The car is documented with the factory fender tag and punch certi-card(photos included). I purchased this car just over 3yrs ago as a #4 condition project with the engine being newly rebuilt at that time.  Since that time, it has received the following restoration work and has been driven less than 500 miles.

*The car has undergone a sub-frame off restoration.

*There are very few new parts available for this car, so most of the original parts have been rebuilt or restored( new parts were used when available).

*New base/clear paint including under carriage (done in a darker shade of red metallic than the factory standard red).

*All chrome was re-plated and all stainless straightened and polished.

*New 15-inch Torq-Thrust II wheels with new red line radial tires.

*New fuel pump, water pump, master cylinder, wheel cylinders, plug wires, and distributor.

*Newly rebuilt washer motor.

*Carburator received a premium restoration from Bob Kunz-St. Louis.

*Radiator newly re-cored.

*New voltage regulator, horn relay, and heat regulator.

*All gauges were checked, cleaned, and new circuit board installed and are functional with the exception of the clock.

*Refurbished AM radio in working condition.

*Gas tank was power cleaned and sealed with Hirsch tank sealer system.

*New fuel sender.

*New safety belts.

*New brake lines.

*New bushings, bearings, and U-joints.

*New stainless fuel lines.

*Flowmaster exhaust system.

*Transmission rebuilt.

*New black convertible top.

*Front end alignment.

*New weather stripping and seals.

*New interior carpet.

*New hoses, headlamps, and battery.

I have tried to describe everything that was done during the restoration. There are a couple of negative things about the car and they are: The door and side windows are original and have normal scratches because of age. The passenger door glass is missing a clip that holds it firm in the front vent window track, and so it sags when you roll it up or down(I have tried to locate one but have not been successful). After the car sits for a few days, it will seep trans-fluid around the pan gasket(I have had the gasket changed several times and it still seeps). You cannot find factory replacement seat covers, so the seats were recovered in correct material but don't have factory pattern. The clock does not work. Please email me with any questions and thanks for looking. The car is available for inspection anytime during normal business hours. Please contact me and I will be glad to accommodate you to view the vehicle. There are no written or implies warranties for the item. The buyer is responsible for all transport arrangements and cost. The payment is to be made within 7 days of auctions end and payment must be made with bank certified funds or wire transfer. We reserve the right to end the auction and anytime. Thanks and good luck bidding!!!!

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.

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.
