This car is a genuine RM27 code, meaning it is not a Satellite or Sport Satellite clone but a real Road Runner. One of 824 produced. How many are left and when is the last time you saw one available at a reasonable price? The gentleman who had owned it prior to me for roughly 20 years made some personalized changes so it would resemble what he would have purchased from the Chrysler/Plymouth Dealer back in the day. Starting off, the F8 Dark Ivy Green Paint had to go. Both 1/4 panels were replaced and many hours were spent blocking and sanding. After which time, a fresh FC7 InViolet Met. base/clear paint job was applied. The A/C components were removed in favor of the addition of the Airgrabber hood scoop which works as it should. Laser and properly applied side reflective dust-trails (not upside down in one section or the other) compliment the beautiful bodywork and paint which looks like it was done within a few years. I believe it's actually 15 years old! The rear taillight valance was replaced with an NOS unit and the gold reflective transverse strip was added. The grille was restored with the proper Argent color schemes by Brad's NOS. Hood-pins, wood sport steering wheel, Tic-toc-tach, (clock does not work Tach does), and all other gauges do. Very nice dash pad, bucket seat and rear seat covers, well liner, top boot with the correct plastic clips (rather than than the snaps guys incorrectly install and ruin the next to impossible to find stainless belt moldings). New Hydro-Electric-Pump top motor. White top with glass rear window. I have a brand new set of Road runner floormats for show and one set for driving. BFG tires and American Racing Magnum 500 Billet aluminum wheel with less than 100 miles on them. The original 727 transmission is gone in favor of the Hurst Pistol-Grip 4-speed. New front and rear seals on trans and a new Centerforce clutch plate. I had a 30 over 440 445c.i. motor built by Kilpatrick Racing and Transmissions, Owner of the "Bad Judgement" Pro Mod World record holder 63 Polara. The motor has a Comp cams #21-227-4. 525 gross valve lift with Comp Roller Rockers. Diamond flat top pistons (zero decked). MSD Pro Billet distributor and ignition, Firecore wires. 906 heads 2.14/1.81 Valves Internal Balance and forged crank. New water pump, radiator hoses, V-belts. Melling 63HV oil pump, 6 quart HEMI oil pan. 27"radiator. The car runs and drives beautifully with no issues and has never overheated. New ball joints, idler arm, front brake hardware, front brake shoe kit and recent wheel alignment. Super powerful Pioneer FM/CD player with Subs, and amplifiers hidden in the trunk. Speakers are hidden under the bucket seat and front kick panels. Excellent sound for top down summertime cruising. Vehicle is sold as is with no warranty expressed or implied. Paul 414-520-9339 CST

I have received quite a few calls asking me what the reserve is. The whole idea with an auction is to bid the amout of money that you feel the car is worth and are comfortable spending. Take a look at the N.A.D.A Guides as a good reference tool. Thank you.

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.
SRT belatedly claims Plymouth Prowler as one of its own
Wed, 19 Dec 2012Before 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.
'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.
