1970 440, 4 Speed , Dana 60 Gtx. Deep Burnt Orange / Rare White Interior on 2040-cars
Crofton, Kentucky, United States
|
This is a really nice 70 GTX with the same 440, 4 speed and Dana 60 rear that is was born with. There are a couple of changes from what it was born with. This car was manual steering from the factory, but I changed over to power steering to make it a little easier to handle at slow speeds. The original AM 8 tack is still in place but not connected. Instead there is a modern stereo mounted between the console and lower dash, making for an almost hidden nice sounding system. This car came with California emisions from the factory, this is why there are no chrome exhaust tips on the TTI exhaust. The extremely rare original carb is not on the car, but will be included after the reserve price is met. That goes for the original wood grain stearing wheel as well. I preferred the look of a grant wheel, so that is what it will come with. As far as I know, these are the original Road wheels that this car came with, even still has the left side, left hand thread lugs. I have owned this car for 13 years now and am ready for something else, this is why I am selling. You can't keep them all. Base/clear paint is about 6 years old. Buyer must arrange shipping. I will help with loading, but buyer is responsible. 500 dollar non refundable deposit required 24 hours after close of auction. Payment must be made in full cash or certified check. Certified check must clear before car leaves. I have the clear title in my name in hand and will sign over to the buyer at completion of payment. This is not a 100,000 dollar trailer queen. But it is a really nice example of a 70 GTX that you can drive and enjoy. |

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.
