Adult Owned. One Owner. Original Condition. Unmolested. Unmodified. Low Reserve! on 2040-cars
Shelter Island, New York, United States
|
One owner car. 83,400 original miles and has definitely NOT turned over. Always garaged and looks nearly new. Clear Washington State title. 5 new Hankook tires in the correct, original size. New fuel pump, new filters, new fluids, new shocks, new timing chain, new water pump, new exhaust parts, new gas gauge, new brakes, and a full tune up. I have all records for the work I had done in 2013 as well as work done going back almost 30 years. She runs like a charm and starts up right every time. Quiet and smooth 318 Poly engine with more power than you'd expect. Easy, tight steering. You can drive this car with a pinky finger. One unusual feature - a light on the left turn signal to indicate when you're driving with a lead foot; it gets brighter the more you floor it to indicate fuel usage. Ahh, the gasoline shortages of the 1970s. Truly a car of its time. They made hundreds of thousands of them back in the day but where have they all gone? The poorer cousin of the Cordoba, identical frame and mechanicals. First year of manufacture for the "new, mid-size Fury". Historical car. Tried-and-true B-body Mopar. I've no question in my mind you can drive this car home no matter where in North America you need to go. Everything was gone through. Battery still under warranty. So's the exhaust. What people throw away is what becomes most valuable. Think of the Chevelle versus the Eldorado! Interest in 1970s cars continues to grow. Other B-bodies of the era such as the Sebring, Challenger, Charger, Coronet and so on are selling for $50K and more - in some cases, much more. 15 years ago, people would have called you crazy if you had predicted that. What will this car be worth in 5 years? Plenty more than today. They sure aren't making any more like this one. And unlike a lot of the other B-bodies I mentioned, this one was never whipped, never raced, never restored, never messed with. You can restore an automobile as many times as you like, but they're only original once. I just bought a Reatta and I need the garage space which is why I have decided to part with her. I do have some urgency in listing her at this time but am not desperate to sell. Nevertheless, I have set an extremely reasonable reserve to help her along. Another of my sons is about to get his driver's license and he is very fond of the car. It would be a shame to put it in a teenager's hands... save this seldom-seen example of Detroit's history. LOL! |

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.
'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.
