Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is proud to present this
stunning 1968 Plymouth Barracuda, finished in a breathtaking Ice
Violet 2 exterior accented with shimmering purple flakes that
demand attention from every angle. Complementing the vibrant
exterior is a sleek black interior, creating a bold contrast that
perfectly captures the spirit of classic Mopar performance.
This Barracuda isn't just another restored classic it's the result
of years of dedication and craftsmanship. The body was completely
rebuilt beginning in 2016, including being fully taken apart,
sandblasted, primed, prepped, and professionally painted. The paint
and body work were completed in 2018, resulting in the
show-stopping finish you see today.
Under the hood sits a professionally built 360 cubic-inch V8,
installed in 2020 with approximately 1,500 miles since completion.
The build features shaved heads, knurled intake valve guides, a
3-angle valve grind, Trick Flow valve springs, Comp retainers,
ported exhaust and intake work with flow sheets, head and main
studs, polished crankshaft, .030 Keith Black pistons, a 480 lift
280-duration camshaft, new cam bearings, a high-volume Mopar oil
pump, ported Weiand Action Plus intake, Carter 130 GPH fuel pump,
MSD Pro-Billet locked-out distributor, and a Ram Performance race
clutch rated for 500 horsepower.
Power is sent through a checked and verified A904 automatic
transmission fitted with a custom converter installed by Biltrite
in 2019. The driving experience is further enhanced by an 8�-inch
rear end rebuilt in 2017, Right Stuff four-wheel disc brakes, power
steering, and power brakes, offering confidence and control to
match the car's performance.
Inside, you'll find a custom interior that blends classic style
with modern convenience. The seats and center console have been
custom 3D mapped, printed, and upholstered, while the GPS Security
system has been integrated into the custom-designed dash. A
double-DIN radio with GPS functionality keeps you connected on the
road, and Vintage Air air conditioning ensures comfort during every
cruise. An American Autowire harness was installed in 2018, along
with LED headlights and brake lights for improved reliability and
visibility.
Whether you're headed to a Mopar gathering, local cruise night, or
simply enjoying a weekend drive, this 1968 Plymouth Barracuda
offers the perfect combination of show-quality looks, modern
upgrades, and exhilarating V8 performance. This isn't just a
