Here is a real beauty - nice southern car (South Carolina). This car was completely done over 10-12 years ago - engine, brakes, clutch, paint etc. The paint could be redone again but it's not that bad, couple of minor flaws, and there are a very few small minor rust spots. This care is in great original condition. The biggest engine that year was the 273 Commando, this one being the 235 hp version as it has the upgraded Formula S package, more horsepower and also gives it a beafer suspension, extras, etc. It also has the much desired Hurst 4 speed shift - manual transmission. It also has the original Certicard.
The Certicard was used from 66 through 68 and was for the dealer to use during warranty repairs.
The top line is the vin. The second line will have the trim code, the paint code, the transmission type and the rear axle code followed by the scheduled build date. The next lines, on the dymo labels, will be the original owners name and address.
The combination of features makes this a very rare build as there are only around 20 in the country that appear to be registered at this time. No excuses on this car, it drives nice, does show some age but it's a wonderful example of an A body car. It won the Mainely Motorsports TV Award at Bentley's Saloon first car show of the year last Sunday (May5th). Sorry about the short fat guy in the photo.
Open to trade for a Harley (no Sportsters) or maybe another classic or sports car plus some cash if there is a difference in value, which I hope there is... Thanks.

Sorry but I have to state this because of wannabees and tire kickers... Finally, this is an auction, you bid, you buy, it's not to see if you want it later. $1000 deposit due within 24 hours of auctions end by PayPal, and the remainder by cash, bank wire transfer, due within 7 days, no exceptions. If you can't do this don't bid, please. I encourage looking at this car before you bid though I try to give an accurate description, your view still may be different than mine -so see the car first before you bid if at all possible, again, you bid, you buy. I will help with getting the car on your shippers truck, all shipping charges are at the buyers expense and though I will try to help on this end it's not my responsibility to do so. Good luck, it's a great car and just needs a new great driver.

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.
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.

'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.
