For your consideration is this beatiful road ready Duster for your local cruise or shows. The A body Chrysler cars represent a balanced  car, second to none, with there light weight design and uncompromising suspension geometry. This car was was taken off the hands from its original owner who was always going to "restore it". I actually left it titled in its first assignment dated in 1975...I never purchased one of my classic cars from the original owner and thought that was kind of neat and will let the next owner decide on titling options. This is a original 318 - 3 spd. manual floor shift car. It has a  2.94 rear differential ratio that is very fast off the stop lights because of its low 1st speed transmission gearing, and can cruise 75 down the Hi-way all day long, which is the best of both worlds in that respect. This car is very quick, stress free and enjoyable to drive around in. The high impact paint is a quality base/clear paint that should be enjoyed for years to come thanks to modern materials and rust prevention that exceeds 1975 manufacture. Graphics are new items I had around the shop...the Devil made me put the demons on the car and I have the rather bland Duster emblems. This car does not represent a over restored example. It was however completely taken apart and then put back together with original hardware and as such contains some 70's era and aging affects. The car needs nothing to be driven and enjoyed now. Bringing a trailer is optional as I would not hesitate to drive the car anywhere with the tunes blasting and a big grin ear to ear. If you have question please ask, and have your money arranged prior to bid....no exceptions.

BODY

  • New paint with all metal body work completed
  • Dupont base coat clear paint system
  • All new door/trunk seals...its as tight as it gets for this era of car
  • Wiper pivot seals new and all wiper arm bushings replaced 
  • New chrome rear bumper and clean original front
  • Wheels basted, etched, painted and matte cleared
  • The bumpers are now light weight stand alone, after taking the plasma cutter to all that 5 MPH crash bull....never like all that government regulatory nonsense that tried to slow down the strongest breed of cars Detroit ever produced  

INTERIOR

  • New legendary molded carpet
  • New legendary front seat with exceptional rear seat
  • Heater box disassembled cleaned and new core and seals in place
  • Remember this car was completely stripped down...there is no survivor type varmint odors lingering here-it's new!
  • If I scared you off on the bumper deal, the annoying seat belt buzzer system is disabled as well....did leave the factory belts  in place for saftey conscience motorist

ENGINE

  • Rebuilt Sm block pushing 140's compression and strong vacuum at idle, cam selection provides plenty of muscle car era emissions for the tree cuddle folks
  • Weland 4bbl intake and holley carb with jetting dialed for my elevation...can provided tune for new location if you provide elevation/climate averages
  • Distributor worked to dial in intial and total timing
  • Exhaust has a power note,cuts down interior heat, and yet has a refined sound when just crusing around. It's bolted in place with lap joints and can be removed in minutes.  

 DRIVETRAIN

  • Transmission flushed and new gear oil....the 3 sp manual, a Chrysler new process bullet proof speed shift me all day, transmission has wonderful splits and provides excellent street crusing fun 
  • Differintial flushed and new gear oil- I think the optional 2.94 ratio is my new favorite for balanced driving, at least with the transmission raios provided
  • All new rear brakes with front rotors turned and bearings repacked
  • A mopar light weight brake master cylinder replaces the cast 75 boat anchor and the enite system flushed and new fluid

Barrett-Jackson 2014: 1970 Plymouth Hemi Superbird passes half a million dollars

Sat, 18 Jan 2014

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.

'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.

US Marshal's classic muscle car auction officially in the books

Thu, 25 Sep 2014

The 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.
