The color is PPG DBC Lava Orange with 3 coats of Gold Pearl. The car was stripped to bare metal and all metal was fixed properly then PPG etching was applied then PPG K38 Surfacer and blocked to perfection. There is 6 coats of PPG DCU2002 clearcoat and it was wetsanded and buffed for a real nice deep wet show finish. Tuned engine is a 69 standard bore 440 that is studded with Eagle rods, Ross Pistons, Mopar Cylinder heads, Crane gold roller rockers, Mopar cam, custom Hooker Headers into 3 inch downturns and a 950 Mighty Demon fuel injected Carb. Aluminum radiator with electric fan, but car runs 180 at the hottest regardless of weather, but I like to run it cool at 160 with fan. There is not even 1000 miles on the complete system not 5000 like the speedo reads! The trans is a 727 custom built with revese manual valve body and 3400 stall converter with 3 speed B&M shifter. The rear end is a 8 3/4 suregrip, 489 casing with 3.91 gears and Moser axles, Mopar Superstock leafsprings with QA1 shocks.

Car went 10.89 open exhaust and drag slicks. Fronts are new Classics 165/80R15. Front discs with fairly new brake pads and new rear shoes with drums. Car has not been raced or abused, just to the track once to get stats! Yes it is fast, fun and loud! When you get it mad, it is very mean and has a pretty bad attitude! Smoke-free and always covered! It gets a bath every two weeks and a wax every 3 months! When it's thirsty, I add a bottle of 104 Octane booster to a full tank of premium gas, usually from Costco, because I like it that way. 6 point roll cage with 5 point racing harness for driver, regular for passenger. I do not recommend any children or pets to be in this car, bad for hearing! New truck battery and fuel cell in trunk! Fresh fluids and new NGK race plugs! Master cutoff switch along with hidden start switch. Wheelie bars are not necessary since the suspension is setup strong, however the front can come up about 3 inches when you get on it, but that' it. I will take them off for shipping purposes, but they are included with the sell price. Has over $25,000 invested. NADA does not have category for the way my Duster is setup, incidentally however, my Insurance through Hagerty has its worth at $25,000. The market is ever increasing, so if I don't sell, no problem, I will just simply keep as a part of my collection! Street legal with working lights and markers. Currently licensed and registered in California with a clean and clear title in my name. I have a plethora of pics and I can create new video upon request. Have questions, just ask! Not interested in receiving personal negative comments, trades or marketing antics! It's not worth lowering your rating. Bid wisely not impulsively and ONLY bid if you have complete funds.

'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.

SRT belatedly claims Plymouth Prowler as one of its own

Wed, 19 Dec 2012

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.
