1973 Plymouth Cuda
History
The Plymouth Barracuda is a two-door car that was manufactured by
Plymouth from the 1964 to 1974 model years.
The third-generation 1970 to 1974 E-body Barracuda, was a
completely new design that was shared with the Dodge Challenger and
available in hardtop and convertible body styles. The Barracuda was
discontinued after the 1974 model year.
What Is Special About This Car
The Plum Crazy purple Cuda we have at Skyway Classics is a perfect
example of what modifications was done to muscle cars back in the
60s and 70s. It has been restored in such a fashion to exceed all
the performance and visual limits that it had as a factory stock
Cuda.
Mechanical
The engine is always the heart and soul of any muscle car and this
engine is by far a lot more powerful than a stock one back in 1973.
The much modified engine started out it's life as a 440 Wedge but
now is punched out to a huge 513 cubic inches and contains a
supplement of horsepower adding parts such as a performance cam and
kit, aluminum Mod Man intake, Holley carb, MSD ignition, reworked
fuel supply system, custom performance air cleaner box and system,
serpentine belt system, performance heads, headers, aluminum valve
covers, and more.
All that power transfers to the rear with a H.D. 6 speed
Transmission and and Mopar rear end. The exhaust note is great
through the performance mufflers and the ride is great also with
the chassis and suspension redone.
Interior
The superb black bucket seat interior is stock appearing with the
addition of of a few wild looking modifications. All you have to do
is start up our Cuda and gaze upon the carbon fiber dash with all
the performance gauges brilliantly lit up in many mod colors.
Also present is the famous "Pistol Grip" shifter mounted in the
factory black floor console.
Exterior
The body lines on this Cuda look better than they did back in 1973
and the purple paint shines and glistens in the light. A matte
black side panel decal is planted on both sides on the rear quarter
panel and proclaims this Cuda is powered by a "440" cubic inch
engine. If that doesn't warn you the custom front grill hidden
headlights, hood scoops, and twin racing mirrors will.
The Cuda rides on custom black mag wheels and fat performance tires
and the stopping power is supplies by Wildwood disc brakes.
Conclusion
Sometimes being reserved is good, but that is not the case on the
1973 Plymouth Cuda we have at Skyway Classics. If you do not want
to be noticed, do not buy this car. It draws attention with not
only it's looks but it's sound and performance too.
