Today’s American Muscle Car Finds
By Dave Ashton
Today’s American muscle car finds feature some of the de facto standards from the classic muscle car era. Check them out below.
1970 Plymouth Barracuda Cuda` 340
Engine: 340cu.
Original Vitamin C Orange Paint Color
Mileage: 76,556
Price: $55,900.00
This is listed as a numbers matching four speed 1970 Plymouth Cuda` 340. The rare options here being 1 of 2,372 Produced with a 340 4-Barrel and the Vitamin C paint job. It’s not exactly at the cheap end of the spectrum, but it’s a great example of a 1970s model with definite rare options.
1970 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu
Engine: 454
Transmission: Automatic
Mileage: 1,000,000
Price: $8,950.00
Every time I see a 1970s Chevelle listed with a 454 engine my ears prick up. This example is a 454, it’s just a shame it’s not an SS model. However, it could make a very good project to bring back to life, and even at a push could be made into an SS clone, but that’s not everybody’s cup of tea.
A relatively solid vehicle which would make a great project.
1979 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28
Engine: 350
Transmission: Manual
Current bid: $4,501.00
A rebuilt engine, and will obviously need a restoration, but is very solid as a starter project.
‘Clear Nevada title, currently has a rebuilt 350 motor but still have the original matching number block with the car(block number picture attached).
other than that all original down to the hard to find wheels.
this car is a 4 speed manual transmission.
car runs and drives.
this is still a project car so what you see is what you get.
it has a few small spots of rust that you can see in pictures, one is on the rear driver side behind the wheel, one on the passenger side fender in front of the door, the battery tray, and driver side rocker by the seat. its very solid under the car as you can also see in picture attached.
needs interior redone but complete. has a broken passenger tail light.’
Grandmas 1972 Chevrolet Nova
Price: $9500
There’s not much information that comes with this 1972 Chevrolet Nova 2 door apart from it was grandma’s ride, located in Costa Mesa, California. it has a 350 engine, air con, power brakes and an automatic transmission.
It’s not the greatest colour in the world, but it’s a very clean example and grandma must have had a blast in this ride.
A nice project to kick-off the spring months.
