Vehicle Description
The 1965 Plymouth Barracuda was the first shot at firing back in
the new pony car wars. That means this example offers bold looks,
Mopar rarity, and proper V8 power. And it does it all for quite a
nice price.
Plymouth was responsible for one of the most interesting cars on
the road for the mid-60s. It combined a great hardtop profile,
fastback style, and the largest wraparound rear window anyone had
seen. It has some of the most interesting sheetmetal lines, and so
the upgrade to teal with a hint of metallic loves to draw added
attention to this distinct coupe. There's care in everything you
see from the shine of the bumpers to the way the doors close with
authority. Plus, as a true V8 machine, this one shows off some
sporty flair with bright dual exhaust tips and the iconic Cragar SS
polished wheels.
The black bucket seat interior is exactly what you want to fight
the pony car wars. In fact, this has the same pieces you look for
in the best fastback Mustang, like a fold-down read seat and center
console. The three-spoke steering wheel and floor shifter make this
feel both sporty and vintage at the same time. Plus, the upgraded
AM/FM/CD stereo with aux input and upgraded speakers means you
always are ready for the best driving music.
The best Barracudas received the 273 cubic-inch V8, so it's great
to have that displacement under the hood here. It inhales deeply
with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with a
sweet rumble out of the dual exhaust. The motor fires up readily,
the three-speed automatic transmission shifts smoothly, and the
whole package feels nice on the road.
Complete with owner's manual, you rarely get a chance at a distinct
V8 classic coupe at such an affordable price. Don't miss out, call
