Hurley, Wisconsin, United States

1970 Plymouth Roadrunner equipped with numbers matching 383ci big block and 3 speed automatic transmission. Car is pretty much brand new top to bottom. It started life as a cream colored car with factory white vinyl top and factory go wing. Also codes out for the premium burnt orange interior. At the owners request we refinished the exterior to factory show quality PPG Hemi orange. Clear coat has been color sanded and buffed. Everything soft part on the car is new including but not limited to the door gaskets, trunk gaskets, windshield gasket, under hood rubbers, vinyl top, legendary interior, trunk mat, carpet, and dash pad. The gauges have been refaced and the console refurbished. Brakes are new all the way around and all of the steering components have been serviced and/or replaced. Wheels and tires are new, with a 4 wheel alignment. The engine is completely rebuilt to factory specs. Transmission has been serviced and is in perfect working order. The exhaust is completely new with flowmaster mufflers and new factory chrome tips. The original 8 3/4 rear end is also serviced with the factory 3.91 ratio gears that it codes out for. The engine is original to the car but the transmission is believed to be out of a different car years ago. The bumpers have been professionally straightened and re-chromed and the wheel well moldings are brand new. The entire restoration was completed last year and has only had a little over 100 miles on it since completion. As for the body, it is a rust free New Mexico tub that only required new center trunk pans. Other than that it did not require any patch work. This car is a real beauty and head turner. It is only in need of some very minor details to be a near perfect car. Small items that are still needed include but not limited to the vent cables, glove lock bezel, correct battery and cables. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. You can call 715-561-5635 but email is preferred. Thanks for looking!

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.

'Blood Muscle' auction to sell impressive collection of ill-begotten classic cars

Wed, 30 Jul 2014

The 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 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.
