This ad might be a little bit lengthy, but I want to describe it as accurate as I can so there are no surprises later on.
Very nice wagon. It was built at the Los Angeles plant and stayed here in California all of it's life. It is light blue (CC-1) and has had one repaint (original color) some time in the past. It is acrylic enamel and still shines great! The California black plates are the ones that were issued to the car when it was new, and they will go with the car. They look good from ten feet, but when I got the car, the plates were pretty beat up, so I did an amateur restoration on them. They are definitely worth getting professionally restored if you keep the car. Clear California title, and the plates are good until January 2014.
Engine is a 4- barrel poly 318 cubic inch with 125,000 miles. It is tired, but still runs good, shifts good and stops good. The air conditioning is a dealer add-on, and it does not work. The fan on the under-dash unit works. The compressor and all the components under the hood are Chrysler. My intention was to take everything out and replace it with a big block and Classic air, but that was a year ago. I am moving out of state and can't take everything with me. I have two other wagons, so one must go. The car was parked about a year ago because of the tranny leak, but was driven almost every day up to that point. It has had a disc brake conversion done in the past, and has been changed over to a dual master cylinder. It was a future project that I now realize I can't get done, so I hope someone else can enjoy it.
The wheels and wheel covers are the original 14" ones, and I have three good spare wheel covers. Tires still have good tread on them. The grille is super straight and has no broken bars and is not bent, but the black paint is faded. It will need to be polished to be show quality.
There are two dings on the entire car ...one is on the left rear door and one is on the rear bumper (see pictures). The stainless side trim is near perfect ...no dents or dings. Most all of the outside chrome shows some fading. This includes the bumpers, luggage rack, door handles etc. They will need to be replated if you plan on making this car a showpiece. There are a couple of spots on the body that have some light bubbles starting under the paint, but for the most part, this is a super straight rust free wagon. See pictures. No rust in the cowl or floor pans. The trunk has some surface rust.
The tailgate rear window is manual, but I have most of the parts to convert it to electric operation. It is not rusted out at the bottom like most tailgates are. You have to remember, this is a California car from day one. Someone had a really heavy duty trailer hitch installed ...not some cheap JC Whitney one. I have no idea what it was used for. All glass is good, but the rear quarter windows need the weatherstripping replaced. There are several good Mopar places out there who have all the reproduction stuff for these old wagons. All the door weatherstripping needs replaced. I have new windlace already, and it goes with the car, along with a box of spare miscellaneous parts I have accumulated.
INTERIOR: The seats have have been redone in the past (not original material) and are still in great condition. The fabric material has turned a purplish color over the years, but in great shape. The carpet is nice. The dash pad above the instrument cluster is bad, but I have another blue one that is almost perfect. The other dash pad is from a Dodge 330, and although it is in pretty good condition, it does not fit properly around the instrument cluster. I have a correct replacement that goes with the car, but it will need to be redyed. The door panels are in decent shape, bur need to be redone if you are planning to make it a show car. Armrest pads are excellent. The headliner boards are sagging (one is missing), but replacement reproductions are available. The side panels that cover the inside rear wheelwells are in great condition. Original spare tire, jack and hardware are there. Radio does not work. The pushbutton shifter assembly has been reworked and works as smooth as new. Original owner's manual, as well as as quite a bit of maintaince history is included.
I suggest that you come (or send someone) to look at the car if possible. I am available to show it almost any day, and you can call any time between 8:00AM and 7:00PM California time. I will answer any questions that you have, and I love to talk Mopar wagons! With a little work, this can be a great weekend driver just like it is!

It is sold "as is, where is", and there are no warranties stated or implied. I will help with loading onto a transport. Payment is to be made in cash in person, or through a bank funds transfer. Any bank fees associated with a transfer will be added to the balance (usually $25, I think).

Before 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.

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.

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.
