I am listing this beautiful numbers matching 69 GTX for its third private owner who has decided to part with it. The car was sold new at Ray Sheperd Motors in Fort Scott Kansas. It has had three adult owners since new. It has 71,00 original miles. The body retains all of its original panels, straight and damage free since new. The car has had one professional repaint in its original color. There is one small crack in the paint on top of the right front fender in front of the windshield and some very light chips by the rear tailights that are barely visible. There was one small 2in by 2in rust repair done down low on the drivers side quarter in front of the wheel opening where water leaking at the rear quarter window had allowed water to settle. It was cut out and repaired with new metal. There is no rust or rot anywhere else on the car. The exterior chrome has been replated and is beautiful and damage free. The motor is the original #s matching 375hp 440 which was completely and professionally rebuilt. There have been no modifications done to the motor except for a Direct Connection electronic ignition conversion and a set of chrome valve covers. It retains all of its original components including the Carter AVS 4 barrel carb. It runs smooth and strong and sounds like a Mopar should. The original 3 spd column shifted automatic trans is smooth and tight and works perfectly. The rear end is the original 8-3/4 with 3:55 gears.. The brakes are manual drum and work pefectly. The undercarriage is clean and original . The car currently has new Dayton Daytona radial tires mounted on aluminum American racing rims. The factory rally wheels with redline tires are also included with the car. Inside the dash is original, uncut and nice. Original radio works and it has an fm radio mounted under the dash and a cd player and power booster mounted in the trunk. It also has a high end Python theft security system installed. The current owner had the original seats and door panels redone in two tone 100% leather and had a new headliner installed. The carpet looks like new, I have tried to describe the car the best I can but am sure I left something out so feel free to ask for additional info or if you would like to speak to the owner directly just ask and I will provide his contact information. All in all this is a very nice GTX that has been cherished by all of its previous owners and can be driven or shown anywhere with confidence. Thanks for looking.

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.
'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 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.
