Vehicle Description
1966 Plymouth Barracuda. The sleek fastback design, unique to the
Barracuda, still turns heads today, with its signature large rear
glass and sporty profile. First introduced in 1964, the 2-door Pony
Car produced by Chrysler Corporation was based on the A-body
platform. The Barracuda debuted in fastback form on April 1, 1964.
The greatest effort was put into creating its easily
distinguishable 14.4 sq. ft. rear window, a collaboration between
Pittsburgh Plate Glass (PPG) and Chrysler designers that created
the largest ever installed on a standard production carat that time
and gives this car a very unique look. 1966 was the last year for
this design. This Barracuda is equipped with a 225 CID Slant Six
Engine, 145HP, with a 1 barrel carburetor. It's paired with a
smooth automatic transmission that works great for effortless
cruising. The engine starts and runs great. It has a new fuel tank,
fuel sending unit, fuel pump, carburetor and a new exhaust system.
It looks like the pan gasket is leaking and the radiator leaks. It
Also has the Cool Aire air conditioning unit supplied by the
ChryslerCorporation parts department. The air conditioning works
but will need a charge to cool correctly. Thedash features oil
pressure, alternator, temperature, fuel and PerformanceIndicator
gauges. All are in working order. The speedometer does not work and
the dash does not light up. Thetitle states the odometer exceeds
mechanical limits. What appears to be the original AM radio is
still in place and it works. The wipers, heater and rear dome
lights work. Headlights, brake lights, and turn signals work. It
features fender-top turn signal indicators with a stylized fin
motif. The Previous owner did some major work including new floor
pans and rear quarter panels installed. The frame is solid. The
paint looks good from 50 feet but it has overspray and some runs.
The body work is not perfect. The chrome has some pitting. The
seats have rips in them as shown in the photos
