For Sale: 1971 Plymouth Barracuda in Charlotte, North Carolina

Vehicle Description

It doesn't take long for car enthusiasts to put 383 and 1320 together. While Chrysler may have intended MoPar-branded pony cars to be small block-powered curve carvers, their conservative proportions and relative light weight equaled lethal stoplight potential that just couldn't be ignored. Dressed in some of the most brilliant livery Auburn Hills has ever created, this striking Plymouth wraps an original 383/3-speed drivetrain in a detailed, ground-up restoration. And, with an excellent combination of style and personality, it presents the perfect opportunity to kick off a serious muscle car addiction!

Motoring through life as a savory slice of Americana, this 'Cuda is an authentic, 383-powered drop-top that's always reflected vivid Lemon Twist pigment. Not too long ago, acute restoration was applied to solid sheetmetal that's carefully aligned under correct White vinyl. And today, this Plymouth rolls as striking Detroit muscle that mixes classic Chrysler design with storied MoPar merit!

Hoist the hood and you'll find an original, 383 cubic inch Super Commando V8 that hangs a familiar 2468130 casting number between a September (9) 21st (21), 1970 (70) casting date and a matching 189781 partial VIN. More popular than Chrysler's famed Hemi, and almost as feared, the Super Commando V8 was designed to be Plymouth's best combination of comfort, streetability and performance. That performance is funneled through an original A727 3-speed, which hangs a matching 189781 partial VIN in front of a requisite 8.75-inch axle. That axle pushes a fully restored suspension that's spec-ed with factory power steering and power front disc and rear drum brakes. Large exhaust pipes roar through an H-shaped crossover, throaty Dynomax mufflers and polished stainless tips. And everything rolls on stainless-trimmed Rallye Wheels, which make excellent use of F60-15 Goodyear Polyglas GTs.

Inside this convertible, a correct White interior is simple, functional and looks as good as new! Top dead center, high-back bucket and rear bench seats are restoration-fresh. Between those seats, an optional console anchors Chrysler's race inspired Slap Stik shifter in attractive trim. In front of that console, a warp-free dash hangs optional Rallye telemetry above an original Chrysler Solid State radio. And in front of the driver, a beautifully restored and coveted rim-blow steering wheel perfectly complements the car's sculpted console and slick instrument panel.

Mixing solid restoration with excellent performance and classic good looks, this 'Cuda is ready to drive, show and parade! Searching for an awesome MoPar to cherish and enjoy? You've found your next classic!
