This car is a find for the buyer/collector/investor seeking something different at a below-market-value price.

Smooth-running, powerful 318 cubic-inch V-8 engine is coupled to the legendary TorquFlite pushbutton transmission for an energetic and easy drive.
The power-steering is effortless, which was typical of the times.
The brakes stop the car quickly and in a straight line.
The white power-operated top is in excellent condition and operates perfectly.
The interior has received new factory-matched seat and back upholstery, beautifully done. The door and rear interior quarter panels are original and in perfect condition. The carpeting is in very good condition.
The body is straight and appears to be rust- and Bondo-free, and the paint, which I believe to be original, is in very good condition.
The chrome and stainless trim is in very good to excellent condition.
All lights and gauges function properly, though the clock (like most of this vintage) does not work.
The radio installed below the dash is a quality after-market unit. The original radio (in the dash) does work.
The car was originally shipped to Knoxville, Tennessee, where it spent all of its "life" until 2000, when it was acquired by its current owner. It appears to have always been very well-cared-for.
We have the original window sticker, bill-of-sale, and owner's manual for the car.
The reserve has been set low, as an impending personal relocation is about to occur.
The odometer mileage cannot be verified, but based on the car's condition, we do not think it has "gone around".

The car is extremely solid, as has been determined by a noted, certified professional inspector. He had numerous positive comments about the automobile's originality and exceptionally fine condition. He also discovered the repaired rear-wheel surrounds, which, in his opinion, had work done on them many years ago, prior to it's current ownership. This new information has caused me to lower the reserve on the car, as I recognize that the buyer (if he/she chooses to do so) would have some expense involved in re-doing these repairs (as they are showing a bit of filler and paint failure).

'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.

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.

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.
