Hemmings Launches Online Auction of Ultra-Rare 1971 Plymouth ’Cuda Convertible

Hemmings, the world’s largest online collector car marketplace, today announced the upcoming, online live auction of an exceptionally rare 1971 Plymouth ’Cuda Convertible, one of the most-desirable Mopar® muscle cars ever produced. Given the rarity of the vehicle, Hemmings is featuring a special two-week auction window, launching today for interested buyers and Mopar muscle car enthusiasts to monitor the auction’s bidding.

Of the 292 (some sources cite 374) ’Cuda convertibles built for the 1971 model year, only 30 were equipped with a 340-cu.in. V8 engine, paired to a heavy-duty, four-speed manual transmission. It is only one of five vehicles at the time that were exported to Canada, and has been meticulously rotisserie-restored to factory specifications. It currently resides in Florida and is offered with a clean title in the seller’s name.

Finished in Plymouth’s high-impact Tor-Red (EV2), this numbers-matching ’Cuda Convertible is highly optioned, featuring power windows, a power top, billboard stripes, and a pistol-grip shifter. The seller notes that the car remains in excellent condition, with its original 340 V8 refreshed, painted, and detailed to factory spec.

“For more than 71 years, Hemmings has been the trusted marketplace for collector cars,” said Jonathan Shaw, President of Hemmings. “It’s especially rewarding when sellers return after a successful result—like this consignor, who sold a 1970 Hemi ’Cuda in June and is now listing a 1971 ’Cuda Convertible with Hemmings. That recurring confidence underscores the trust collectors place in Hemmings to connect them with the right buyers and deliver results.”

1971 Plymouth ‘Cuda Highlights:

Original 340-cu.in. OHV V8 (275 hp) engine, with numbers matching
Heavy-duty, 833 four-speed manual transmission with new clutch
Factory Tor-Red exterior with billboard stripes (V6X-code)
Restored interior with bucket seats, console, pistol-grip shifter
Power windows, power steering, and power brakes with front discs
Extensive restoration documentation and original components included

The online auction opened Thursday, Oct. 2, 2025 and ends on Friday, Oct. 17 at 6:00 p.m. ET exclusively at Hemmings.com/auctions. To bid on the 1971 ‘Cuda Convertible, visit the 1971 Plymouth ‘Cuda auction page at: https://www.hemmings.com/auction/1971-plymouth-cuda-lake-suzy-fl-999257.

Wiliot Collaborates with Walmart to Transform Retail Supply Chain with Ambient IoT and AI

Wiliot, a global leader in ambient IoT technology, announces a collaboration with Walmart, the world’s leading omnichannel retailer, to revolutionize supply chain operations. This work represents the first large-scale deployment of ambient IoT technology in the retail sector, with millions of Wiliot IoT Pixels being integrated throughout Walmart’s supply chain.

By combining Wiliot’s ambient IoT technology with Walmart’s advanced AI systems, the collaboration is designed to dramatically enhance supply chain efficiency, inventory accuracy, and cold chain compliance. Real-time insights into inventory management—knowing exactly what merchandise is owned and where it is at any moment—are setting a new standard for retail operations.

“With Walmart, we are advancing supply chain performance at an unprecedented scale,” says Tal Tamir, CEO of Wiliot. “This nationwide deployment adds a new layer of digitization to Walmart’s supply chain, empowering associates with real-time insights and automation that drive greater efficiency, accuracy, and responsiveness. It’s a testament to the power of ambient IoT and artificial intelligence to help retailers operate smarter, move faster, and deliver stronger outcomes for their business, their associates, and their customers.”

Wiliot’s IoT Pixels are being used to track Walmart pallets at scale, with a goal of reaching 90 million by the end of 2026. This initiative stands as one of the largest ambient IoT deployments to date, providing a new source of supply chain data for Walmart’s expanding use of AI.

The collaboration is already making a significant impact by eliminating manual tasks and delivering automated alerts. This empowers Walmart associates to act quickly, make smarter decisions, and dedicate more time to serving customers. Enhanced visibility has also helped resolve inventory discrepancies, ensuring smoother operations and improved customer experiences.

The collaborative solution is currently deployed across 500 Walmart locations, with plans for national expansion in 2026. The rollout will cover 4,600 Walmart Supercenters, Neighborhood Markets, and over 40 distribution centers, generating high-resolution supply chain data that feeds into Walmart’s AI systems.

“At Walmart, technology is in service of people – both our customers and our associates,” says Greg Cathey, Walmart Senior Vice President of Transformation & Innovation. “With Wiliot’s ambient IoT technology, coupled with our AI systems, we’re not only optimizing our supply chain to make faster, smarter inventory decisions, but we’re also tackling one of the hardest problems in retail—knowing exactly what we own and where it is at any given moment. This enhanced visibility helps us deliver the consistent value, quality, and experience our customers expect – and that’s what drives us every day.”

This collaboration highlights Wiliot’s commitment to leveraging cutting-edge technology to improve supply chain operations and deliver exceptional value to partners and their customers. By uniting the power of ambient IoT and AI, Wiliot and Walmart are setting a new benchmark for innovation in the retail industry.

MMS Announces Its Role in Supporting Gates Ventures and the GNPC to Deliver One of the World’s Largest Proteomic Datasets for Neurodegenerative Diseases

MMS, a global, data-focused clinical research organization (CRO), is proud to announce its role in the creation and release of one of the world’s largest proteomic datasets for neurodegenerative disease research. In collaboration with Gates Ventures, Johnson & Johnson, AD Data Initiative, and the Global Neurodegeneration Proteomics Consortium (GNPC), MMS supported data intake, harmonization, and anonymization of all samples spanning Alzheimer’s Disease, Parkinson’s Disease, ALS, and Frontotemporal Dementia. The GNPC Harmonized Dataset is now publicly available via the AD Workbench, where it is described as one of the world’s largest proteomic datasets for neurodegenerative disease, uniting 250 million unique protein measurements from 35,000 biosamples across more than 20 international cohorts.

MMS provided end-to-end data science support for this initiative, developing and deploying custom tools to streamline the harmonization of diverse proteomic and phenotypic datasets and automate the quality control process, maintaining rigorous privacy standards and scientific integrity throughout. These innovations will serve as the foundation for future large-scale data integration efforts in the public domain.

Following these initial 23 international cohorts, an upcoming expansion is set to include 13 additional cohorts to further extend the reach and value of this global dataset.

“We are honored to support this landmark initiative and are deeply appreciative of the trust that Gates Ventures, AD Data Initiative, and the GNPC have placed in MMS,” said Dr. Uma Sharma, CEO and Founder of MMS. “Their leadership in tackling the challenges of neurodegenerative conditions through open science and global collaboration is inspiring. MMS shares this commitment, and the mission is especially meaningful to our team—making this project a significant milestone. By applying our expertise in harmonizing and anonymizing complex datasets, we’re proud to have contributed to ensuring that this high-impact resource is now securely accessible to the global scientific community.”

The dataset is now live and publicly available

The GNPC HDS was accompanied by several peer-reviewed publications and commentaries in Nature Medicine, including a World View by Bill Gates, founder of Gates Ventures and co-founder of Microsoft. The international scientific community has praised the GNPC’s work as a model for future global collaborations in biomedical research.

“Neurodegenerative diseases affect tens of millions globally, yet progress in treatment has been slowed by fragmented data and limited biomarker discovery. The GNPC Harmonized Dataset marks a major step forward in addressing these challenges by uniting proteomic data at scale,” said Dr. Farhad Imam, Director of Health and Life Sciences at Gates Ventures. “This was a technically ambitious effort, and MMS’ expertise and ability to execute on high volume and high complexity data harmonization made them instrumental in delivering this dataset and supporting positive patient impact globally.”

The GNPC welcomes additional data contributions from across the scientific community and continues to advance its mission to improve outcomes for patients with neurodegenerative conditions through shared knowledge and collaboration. The dataset is now publicly available to researchers and institutions working to advance the understanding and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
