Small-Block Project: 1972 Plymouth Duster 340

Plymouth introduced a fastback version of its Valiant compact, the Duster. It was a popular seller between 1970 and 1976. The Duster 340 was the performance version in 1970-73 (replaced by the Duster 360). Rated at 275 horsepower, these… more»

1 of 254? 1976 Plymouth Road Runner

Having a V8 four-speed still meant something in 1976, and though Plymouth’s Road Runner wasn’t the bare-bones rubber floored tire-shredding street racer that tempted gearheads in 1968, it held its own in the mid-’70s. This 1976 Plymouth Road Runner… more»

Rolling Mopar Project: 1966 Plymouth Belvedere

While Plymouth had used the Belvedere name since the 1950s, it was applied to a mid-size ride in 1965. And would serve as the basis for the Road Runner muscle car in 1968. But, in 1966, it was largely… more»

1950 Plymouth Woody Wagon Survivor!

A woody wagon that’s never been restored is about as rare as a hen’s tooth these days. The very last true woodies were made by Buick in 1953, and even at that, the wood portions were much diminished compared… more»

Fastback Project: 1965 Plymouth Barracuda

Though the Ford Mustang is credited with starting the “pony car” movement, it was named after, Plymouth got there first. 17 days before the Mustang was unveiled at the New York World’s Fair in April 1964, Plymouth began selling… more»

True Survivor? 1941 Plymouth Super Deluxe

When I first saw the “tip” for this 1941 Plymouth Super Deluxe, courtesy of T.J., I was on the fence about covering it. As we have all discussed many times before, pre- and immediate postwar domestic cars don’t generate… more»

Semi-Survivor: 1970 Plymouth GTX

Semi-Survivor. Those aren’t my words, but the ones used by the seller to describe this 1970 Plymouth GTX. It seems that apart from the paint, it is as original as the day it left the factory. The Plymouth has… more»

Fake Rust Movie Car: 1979 Plymouth Volare

Medium Cashmere Metallic isn’t a color we see too often on Volares, and it goes well with the “Premier woodgrain trim” (is this actual wood?!) (just kidding). The seller says this car has been used for movies and in… more»

Mostly Complete 1970 Plymouth GTX Project

While numerous buyers flocked to their Plymouth dealer set on purchasing a Road Runner in the late sixties and early seventies, those with a little extra cash on hand could drive away in a GTX instead, and get a… more»

Only Two Owners: 1973 Plymouth Scamp

Plymouth and Dodge both launched versions of each other’s compact cars in 1971. Dodge unveiled the Demon, which was a Duster with a Dart front clip. And Plymouth got the Scamp, which was a Dart Swinger with Valiant front… more»

Flower Power: 1969 Plymouth Barracuda Mod Top

Many people believe that the 1960s counterculture reached its zenith in 1969. It was during that year that this Plymouth Barracuda left the factory. Nothing screams Flower Power more effectively than its vinyl Mod Top. It is a distinctive… more»

Rare-To-See Survivor: 1979 Plymouth Horizon

There isn’t much, if any, snow, sleet, or rain south of beautiful San Diego, where this Horizon is located, but Plymouth’s marketing department said, “Snow, sleet and rain couldn’t stop the hardy Horizon. Neither could the competition.” This 1979… more»

Two Door Cool: 1953 Plymouth Suburban Wagon

In today’s world, a two-door station wagon seems like an oddity. Actually, a station wagon, in general, is an oddity today, at least in the U.S. But there was a time when a two-door, long-roof was part of just… more»

It’s Really A Gran Coupe! 1971 Plymouth Barracuda

When an enthusiast’s vision is to turn an auto into a clone, I’m generally supportive of the idea, as my thoughts are that if it’s your car, you’ve got the right to do whatever you want with it.  However,… more»

Held Captive: 1961 Plymouth Fury Project

Chrysler scored a major hit with the “Forward Look” styling of its 1957-59 automobiles, especially the Plymouths. A shift to unibody construction in 1960-61 brought a reversal in good looks, producing some of the most awkwardly designed cars of… more»

Triple-Black Legend: 1970 Plymouth Hemi ’Cuda

A genuine 1970 Hemi ’Cuda is already one of the crown jewels of the muscle-car world, but the example now listed here on eBay takes things a step further. The seller describes it as one of just 284 built… more»
