Choctaw, Oklahoma, United States

Choctaw, Oklahoma, United States

Up for sale is my 1970 Plymouth Cuda.  It is originally a 440, 4 Speed, 4.10 Dana Car and is still all original except for the engine which is now a 484 Hemi.  The numbers matching engine was not in the car when I purchased it in Nov 1979, but it did have a replacement block in the car that has no serial number on it, and I still have that engine, which will go with the vehicle.  I assume it was replaced for warranty work.  The car still has its numbers matching 4 speed transmission and the original Dana rearend.  This car has the following options;  Super TrakPac, which came with power front disc brakes and 4.10 rearend ratio.  It also has power steering with the factory cooler.  I just replaced the clutch with a Centerforce dual friction setup. 

This car is originally Lemon Twist Yellow with a Tan interior and it did have a White vinyl top, but it is now Black. It also came with a console, which I still have, but it is not in the car.  I added the rear wing and the 71 Shaker hood.  The wing and hood are original pieces, not reproductions.  I recovered the seats with covers from Legendary in the original color.  It also has the factory Rallye gauges, pistol grip shifter, Centerline Warrior wheels with New Mickey Thompson street radials and a Sony stereo system.

The current engine is a 484 Hemi using a new Siamese block with Aluminum heads.  Bore is 4.310 and the Stroke is 4.15.  Inside the engine are the following parts:  Wiesco pistons, Manley H beam Rods, Mopar Crankshaft, Crower Solid Lifter Cam (251/255 @ .050, .571/.569 lift), stock intake with two 600 CFM eldebrock carburators, carter electric fuel pump, aluminum water pump housing, TTI headers with 3 inch exhaust.  I also added frame connectors to keep the car safer and reduce body twist, as I do race the car about 3 - 4 times a year.  Best time so far on Mickey Thompson street radials is 11.34 at 123 Mph.

So, except for the engine change and the frame connectors, this car is mostly original and this car has not been in any accidents since I have owned the car, which has been since November 1979.  As stated before, this car is driven often and raced maybe 3-4 times a year.  It does have two small dents in the body, one in the passenger door and one at the front of the drivers fender and there could be some very small startings of rust spots in the left rear quarter behind the rear tire, otherwise the body is in very nice shape.   It is not in show condition, especially the underside, but it attracts its share of attention Wherever it goes!!! 

Plymouth built 314, 440, 4 barrel, 4 speed Cudas in 1970.  If you include the facts that it has the Super Trac Pac option with Lemon Twist paint and Tan interior, I would think this makes for a fairly rare and desirable vehicle.

Thanks for looking!!!

'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.

SRT belatedly claims Plymouth Prowler as one of its own

Wed, 19 Dec 2012

Before Chrysler had Street and Racing Technology, it had Performance Vehicle Operations. What the two entities have in common, before SRT became its own brand, of course, is that each was created to take Chrysler and Dodge (and Plymouth, before it was unceremoniously killed off) vehicles to the next level of style and performance.
We'll leave the question of whether or not the old Plymouth (and later Chrysler) Prowler was ultimately a stylish, performance-oriented car to you, but the boys and girls currently leading the SRT charge at the Pentastar headquarters are keen to accept the retro-rod into the fold.
According to the automaker, all of SRT's current high-performance models owe a debt of gratitude to the old Prowler, due mostly to that car's use of lightweight bits and pieces and innovative construction techniques. If nothing else, the fact that the Prowler's frame is "the largest machined automotive part in history" is pretty cool. Read all the details here.
