1967 Plymouth Barracuda Convertible, Muscle Car-roadrunner Wanna-be on 2040-cars
Jacksonville, Florida, United States
|
CONVERTIBLE: two cars in one; most popular; best of both worlds (especially with factory air conditioning); moonlight & stars look best/better with music playing when on a mountain top park area; driving on a beautiful country back road, or just a happy universe gazing moment. You can buy a used Honda for this price. but what would you rather have in your wallet? BARRACUDA MAN! V8-273ci original: equipped: Automatic stick floor shift; center console. Factory floor & trunk pans solid with no patches. Factory rockers never altered or repaired. No trim missing. Has factory jack & parts, 67 "road bag"?, rim/tire spare, & spare hardboard cover. NEW front bucket seats recover set still in box (not needed anytime soon as you can see by original seats). Note nice crack free steering wheel & dash pad (original of course). All power assist units (Steering/brakes/top) are operational as expected. Does not blow oil smoke or overheat. Battery does not drain when sitting (which means there are no wiring shorts). All lights, wipers, horn, & gauges work. A complete original won't sell lower than my price unless it has multiple issues/needs, or is not numbers matching. No matter how much people know they are shopping for an "aged" vehicle, they tend to forget the extent of time since this left the Chrysler/Plymouth dealership showroom: 1967 took place 47 years ago. This old Cuda still has the same flare today, that it had to it's first buyer @ that time. I must also point out: notice how clean the engine firewall & surround panels show. Still has the hood factory insulator pad. Not bad for just hang'n around & no squeaky mechanic tore it apart. No plaster face lift here. At the request of a "California Dreamer" request, I did *poke out the less than one foot area of *outer rocker panel with a screwdriver (see picture with rocker bubbles before hokey pokey). His perfection dream popped @ the idea of less than 1 foot x 2 inches section out of 12 feet of rocker solid metal on this ***47******year old **steel machine (approx. 12 feet counting both rockers). The important part of this is that the *inner* factory rocker has NO weakness/holes. Either does the factory *weld seams. I will fill the little pokey section with bondo & try to match paint. If this minimal rust pokey info reality & up front truthfulness offends/bothers you, you are looking in the wrong Ebay car section (although 10 year old cars have this "rust never sleeps" tiny bubble dilemma....... A picture of this pokey section is available via iphone. Time for another time machine/ART piece-concept of designers metal sculpture/investment in past & present/hoola hoops-hippy days daze. I don't have to beg someone to own this; one either has the money & "back to the future" desire, or will never own one (or spend $10k more for perfection al a mode). Your $13,500 will always be there+. When cruising in this Cuda, your music playing on the radio, happy faces next to you, moment in time rolls under you/forward with you/perpetual memories that the rest of the world needs, but you are steering your own. Take a picture, before the next lifetime. call for a CUDA "good time-machine": 904-881-3495 Christmas ? |

'Blood Muscle' auction to sell impressive collection of ill-begotten classic cars
Wed, 30 Jul 2014The 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 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.
