1973 Plymouth Cuda
This "Plum-Crazy" 1973 Plymouth Barracuda is one badass machine! Getting it down the road is a 440 C.I. V8 engine making over 500hp that, according to the previous owner, started out as a 1971 "6-Pac" 440 block with a steel crank & rods, but has since been bored .030 over and features forged pistons, aluminum heads, roller rockers, roller chain, a polished & power coated intake, a march bracket & serpentine belt system, an aluminum radiator, and a water pump. This mean Barracuda comes equipped with stainless radiator hoses, an MSD ignition system, aftermarket coated headers, a 2800 stall converter in the transmission, power steering, power front disc brakes, aftermarket AutoMeter "Sport-Comp" gauges, and mossier axles. The car rides on a new set of chrome AMR 15" wheels with B.F. Goodrich RWL tires. To be sure, this is a super nice rotisserie-restored Barracuda that is ready to jump in and enjoy. Not only show quality, the Barracuda in question really is one fast and fun ride. The black vinyl interior trim with bucket seats has been restored as well as its rotisserie paint job, with an attention to detail as all the jambs have been repainted. The floors are rock-solid, just as nice as the exterior body! Rest assured. this is one investment-grade 'Cuda that is ready to go at the turn of a key!
