Barn finds are still be found. Hot Rod reported on this 1970 Plymouth Barracuda that was parked in 1977 due to an unidentified issue. The car, and everything around it, has not been touched since that day. One can say it’s “only” a 318 automatic but that just means that it’s not too rare and valuable to drive and enjoy. More pics after the jump!
1968 Hemi Road Runner, 4 speed, with 1481 miles. Need I say more? Found on Craigslist by BangShift. More pics after the jump!
The Charles Kee auction starts tomorrow! They just posted the complete catalog today, take a look.
The next car we are featuring is a 1965 Plymouth Barracuda, VIN number V852527557. It is a factory 273 4 bbl commando V8 automatic car with a floor shifter. A 4 bbl in one of these is pretty rare. This Cuda is very clean and is a loaded model. We see power brakes, floor shift auto, bucket seats, chrome air cleaner, black valve covers, wood grain wheel and the top of the line hub caps. It has silver exterior with black interior and black stripes.
First of all: THIS CAR IS NOT FOR SALE. Now: you are looking at a one owner 1970 Plymouth Superbird in near perfect condition with just one repaint. It was purchased off the dealer lot in South Carolina in December, 1970 for $2,500 after sitting for over a year (the original sticker on this car was $4,537). Original paperwork plus the post from Moparts after the jump!
Mike Musto reviews one violent Plymouth Valiant. Betcha that’s not a nameplate that you thought you would see on Big Muscle. Video after the jump!
Don’t get too excited. There are no A12s, AARs or winged cars but there is an R/T–an Aspen R/T. The man obviously loved F-bodies. Find more info at Barn Finds of this unique Mopar collection that has hit Craigslist. More pics after the jump.
Did you want to go to the Lambrecht collection auction but live in the Northwest? Did you want to go but are only a Mopar fan? Well, here is your chance. The Charles Kee collection is going up for auction on May 8th and 9th in Brothers, Oregon. Where is Brothers, you ask? It’s in the middle of nowhere in Eastern Oregon, about an hour east of Bend, Oregon. It was a five hour drive for us from Olympia, Washington. Charles Kee was collecting cars to try to start a museum but unfortunately passed away before seeing his dreams come true.
This is an amazing collection of cars and parts but unfortunately a few years ago some Europeans came in and bought a bunch of the better cars from the collection. Most of what are left are C-bodies and 4-door Chryslers with a few scattered B- and A-bodies. Still some good projects in the bunch, however.
We got the opportunity to see the collection and have the scoop on the cars and parts that are going up for auction. Here are some general pictures and we are going to have more details on a few of the best cars. The auction is being run by James G. Murphy–here is a link to the preliminary catalog. Anyone want more info on any cars in particular?
Reported to be the actual car that The King used to win races number two, three and four of his career, this Fury, as posted on Hemmings, can now be yours for a cool half million. Towel included. More pics after the jump!
