Vehicle Description
This rare 1966 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S is sporty ride with a
kick where it counts. First offered in 1965, the Formula S package
is a rare sight today, as only 5,316 cars were equipped with it out
of the total of 38,029 Barracudas that rolled off the assembly line
in 1966. These little A-Bodies became a popular choice for
professional road course racers looking for a car that could
compete when both power and agility were needed. The Barracuda went
through a facelift in 1966, a new front clip and taillights giving
the compact a more chiseled look, and the Dark Blue color on this
beautiful Barracuda really show of its styling well. The matching
original Blue interior is in great condition, featuring bucket
seats, factory tachometer and gauges, as well as a shifter for the
manual transmission.
