While not a surprise, it’s still painful to hear Ralph Gilles admit that the V8 Hemi will not be around forever. Gas prices will never drop, CAFE standards are getting tougher and V6’s continue to get more powerful. Get ’em while you can folks. See the story at Street Legal TV.
Produced for only two model years (1970 and 1971), The Plymouth Sport Fury GT was Plymouth’s attempt at a full size muscle car. The 440 4 bbl was the popular choice but a 6 bbl was an option, too. I love the sinister styling. What say you? Could a C-body be considered a muscle car? Hooniverse is asking. More pics after the jump!
This very solid E-body sitting in Tennessee is not for sale but not for the usual “I’m going to restore it someday” reason. This owner is just downright nasty,
“I found this ’71 Barracuda sitting in Tennessee. I got a chance to talk the owner, an older woman. She refuses to sell, and has turned down several offers. She said that someone can take away when they can sweep it into a dust bin. Sad story.”
See it here at Cars in Barns. Another pic after the jump.
Petrolicious recently featured this cool 1967 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S owned and restored by Bob Gough. Love the steelies! Video after the jump!
Bring a Trailer highlights this 1974 Dodge D800 car hauler that is reported to be a factory car hauler for such team drivers as Bob Riffle, Gene Dunlop, the Fink Brothers, Arlen Vanke, and Ronnie Sox. Sporting it’s original, numbers matching 413 2-bbl, it would be a very cool way to transport your old Mopar. If you insist on owning a trailer queen then at least arrive in style. Check out the original eBay auction.
We just found this very clean 1968 Dodge Charger over in dry Eastern Washington. This car was abandoned in a farmer’s field around 1980 and it has sat ever since. It’s pretty complete except for the tail lights which somebody thought would look cool in a VW bug! The first pic is how we found it and the rest are of the car back together at the shop. Luckily most of the parts were stored in a storage shed and were spared sun damage.
After finding this Dave Wren Barracuda on eBay, and searching for more info online, it appears that the same car has been for sale many times over the years and often with the same description. it was on Carslist.co for $295,000, on CarPictures.com in 2008, and sold in June 2012 for $51,065 per CollectorCarPriceTracker.com (it’s possible that sale fell through.) A very cool car but not a lot of takers. See the auction at eBay! More pics after the jump.
Although not a big fan of “pro touring,” I always liked the stance and subtle body modifications of this Charger. What do you think? Bidding starts at $85,000. Check out the auction at eBay. More pics after the jump!
This video is two years old, with over a million views, but still worth sharing. Check out the massive burnout after the jump!
