Vehicle Description
This 1970 Plymouth Barracuda Gran Coupe was originally built at the
Hamtramck, MI, main Dodge plant, rolling off the assembly line on
October 17, 1970. It is powered by its correct 383ci V8 single
4-barrel big-block engine paired to a 4-speed manual transmission
(A833) producing 335hp and 425 ft/lbs of torque. Purchased by its
most recent owner in 2020, this Gran Coupe is the recipient of a
full rotisserie restoration to original factory specifications.
Accomplished by a marque professional, a detailed restoration was
completed from stem to stern, including mechanical, body and paint.
The interior of this motorcar features premium black leather with
bucket seats (PRX9), full door panels (000), overhead consolette
with formed headlining (C26), wood-trim Hurst pistol-grip shifter,
wood-trim steering wheel and wood-trim center console. It also has
a Rallye instrument cluster, upgraded AM/FM premium audio,
Barracuda badging and aluminum door sill plates. The options for
the body as denoted on the Trim Tag include roof drip rail moldings
(M21), wide-body sill moldings (M25), belt moldings (M31) and dual
exhaust (N41). During the restoration process, the vinyl roof was
removed and the entire vehicle was stripped and refinished,
including the roof with factory OEM High Impact Plum Crazy Metallic
(FC7) and 383 hockey stick black stripes along the body. All
chrome, brightwork and trim have been renewed and refreshed.
Accompanying this motorcar is a complete decode of all factory
options as stamped on the inner fender Body Tag, along with the
spare wheel and tire with a jack. The car rolls on 15-inch upgraded
Cragar 5-spoke retro-style wheels wrapped in Goodyear Polyglas GT
tires. It is one of 341 1970 Barracuda 383ci Gran Coupes built with
a 4-speed manual transmission. It has had 980 miles since complete
restoration. **TITLE IN TRANSIT**
