Plymouth GTX 1970 Description
1970 GTX V code
This car was listed a few months back and I accepted a offer from a buyer. Well needless to say he asked me to hold the car for him but he was not able to get the $$. So please make sure you have all your finances together before you bid. Thank you..This is a REAL 1970 Plymouth GTX 440 6bbl V code Car which was born on December 3 1969. It is documented by Galeen Glover and is in the Chrysler registry. It is a factory equipped Hemi – box 4 speed transmission with a factory pistol grip Hurst shifter backed with a Dana 60 rear end with 3:54 gears. This car has spent its entire life in NJ delivered to Elm Auto sales in Kearney NJ. I purchased the car a few years back from a friend who purchased it from the second owner who was ill and had it sitting in his garage for almost 20years! This explains why the car was basically a rust free car most likely from sitting in a garage for 20 years. It has not seen rain or winter for over 35 years!! When I purchased the car from my friend he had finished restoring the car in 2003. Since 2003 till 2011 he only drove the car to car shows about 250 miles in 8 years. Somewhere in it’s life it was painted B5 blue. After I purchased the car I decided that the car was to valuable to not restore it back to its original color Burnt tan metallic. Burnt tan metallic is one of if not the rarest color of all. From the research that was done on the car I was told it was one of one on how it was equipped: 440 6bbl 4 speed burnt tan metallic black vinyl top with bucket seats. During the restoration I sent the engine out to Raz Performance in Vineland NJ. I told Ray that I would like him to go through the engine and make it as if you walked into the showroom back in 1970 to purchase this car except give it a little hotter cam!! When he was done with all the work including balancing and blueprinting it it dynoed out at 487hp and 525 torque. The engine although not original is a date correct engine . The intake alternator exhaust manifolds (which were jet hot coated so they always look brand new). The Hemi 4 speed was gone through completely and shifts like a dream. All the exterior trim is original to the car which I sent out to have it restored to new condition. I have the original build sheet and letter from Galen for the car as well. The original radio was restored back to factory specifications but with one addition I had a auxiliary jack installed on the back where you can plug your iPod in or audio device in (one of the pictures of the glove box shows the iPod cable). I have more detailed pictures of the door jambs as well as interior engine compartment and underside that I was unable to add. Not sure how to include them in the description.. I can email to any one who would like to see them.. I also have a video of the car running.. I have spent countless hours and $$$ restoring this GTX as you can tell by the pictures. It is for sale since the location that the car is stored is unable to keep cars there and the next closest "safe" place I could find is 30-45 minutes away from me. I have spent over 3 years bringing the car back to showroom condition even though the purist would say the car never looked this good when it was new. The car runs and drives like it did on day one only better.
