1970 Plymouth Duster project car.  Original 340 car with numbers matching 340 engine.  Engine is complete from carb to pan except for the distributor and does include the correct HP exhaust manifolds and engine mounts.  727 automatic transmission is not original to the car.  Has an 8 3/4 rear end with an open differential and unknown gearing.  Correct K-frame with front swaybar.  Car is factory Lemon Twist yellow with black interior.  Bench seat, column shift.  I have a split bench with armrest in it now out of a '72 Valiant.  Has the correct 150 mph rally dash as well as all the original wiring for it.  Currently has large bolt pattern disc brakes on the front.  Manual steering, manual brake car. 

The car has a '72 front clip on it.  Fenders are repairable but not perfect.  Hood and valance are in good shape.  Front bumper is driver quality.  Outer shell is fairly solid, but interior will need quite a bit of metal work.  Rear quarters need patched down low behind the wheel wells.  Someone has cut the torsion bar cross member at some point in its life to fit a manual transmission in it.  I do have another cross member that will be included with it.  Floors are very rusty.  Will need full front and rear floor pans as well as trunk pan and trunk extensions.

Feel free to contact me with any questions.  Car has a clean Oklahoma title.  I bought this as a shell with intentions of restoring and have had a change of heart.  Would like it go to someone who can give it the time and money it deserves.  Thanks for looking.

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.

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.

'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.
