The Plymouth Barracuda needs no introduction to fans of the muscle car genre. By 1970 the model was in its third generation and was now based on the E-Body. It may have shared its underpinnings with the Dodge Challenger, but the sheet metal was completely different. Our featured car has been treated to an end-to-end restoration, with the owner reporting a new paint job, new engine, and new transmission. The motor itself has been upgraded with a Blueprint 408ci stroker engine in place, and there’s a host of other tasty upgrades that separate this 1970 Plymouth Barracuda from the herd.
The first thing you’ll notice is the striking paint job. It’s a shade of paint well-known in the muscle-car community: Plum Crazy Purple. The owner tells us that it's a custom job, and it perfectly highlights this car’s lines. The purple is beautifully set off with a contrasting vinyl roof, while you’ll also notice white 340 stickering on the rear fenders. This 1970 Plymouth Barracuda sits on period-looking 15-inch steel wheels which are wrapped in new BF Goodrich rubber with white-lettered sidewalls. Inside, you’ll find a black interior that blends originality with useful upgrades. There’s also a bank of AutoMeter auxiliary gauges that monitor water temperature, oil pressure, and voltage. There’s a pistol grip shifter in the center and the cabin benefits from the addition of a Vintage Air air conditioning system with all-new hoses and a new compressor. Meanwhile, there’s a RetroSound head unit paired with an amplifier and custom speaker boxes.
Under the hood of this 1970 Plymouth Barracuda restoration lies a Blueprint 408ci V8 that features a stroker kit. To handle fuelling, the carburetor has been upgraded to a Slayer series carb, and there’s a new high-torque starter motor too. Cooling is upgraded too, with a new external fan and cooler. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a Chrysler TorqueFlite 727 automatic transmission. Last but not least, the owner reports a recent oil change too.

The 1970s were a thriving age for American muscle cars, with more and more competitors adding their own flavor to the mix. Dodge and Plymouth E-Body cars are among the most famous muscle-era vehicles. They joined the party later than others, having arrived in 1970. In fact, some fans contend that their best years were 1970 and 1971. 1969 was the first year Plymouth used the name CUDA, which was an enthusiast package trim level. This handsome example is a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda with 80,000 miles on its clock. This example enjoys a recently installed BluePrint 408ci engine built by experts in crate engines.
The oil crisis of the 1970s marked a significant shift in the automotive industry, leading to a transition away from large-displacement engines and the temporary decline of American muscle cars. During this time, fuel-efficient Japanese vehicles emerged as a solution to the energy crisis. However, we are fortunate to have in our possession a remarkable reminder of the bygone era when American automotive giants roamed the streets without much regard for fuel efficiency. Introducing the exquisite 1973 Plymouth Barracuda, a true embodiment of the muscle car legacy. Fitted with a swapped 360ci V8 and documented mileage of 42,000 miles, this classic American beauty is poised to be cherished and admired, or driven with pure delight to your heart's content.
Do you want a muscle car experience in a compact car body? That’s what Plymouth aimed to provide, with the Duster. Made between 1969 and 1976, the Duster was their two-door coupe in the compact car segment.

If you’re interested in getting your hands on a Duster, check out this 1970 Plymouth Duster Restomod that’s for sale right now. The car has been completely restored and rocks some neat modern features.
Beep, Beep! Named after the famous Road Runner character from the Warner Bros cartoons, Plymouth reportedly paid them $50,000 to use the name on their iconic Road Runner muscle car of the Sixties and Seventies. They are said to have spent a further $10,000 developing a “Beep Beep” style horn for the car! Either way, the Road Runner was in all aspects, as swift as the cartoon character, Packing beefy engines beneath its long hood, this was one of the most powerful and potent muscle cars around. If that’s your kind of adrenaline rush, you’d do well to pick up this fully-restored 1969 Plymouth Road Runner that currently resides in our inventory. The car’s got just 1,495 miles showing on its odometer since restoration, and comes with some neat upgrades too.

Triumph was a well-known British sports car maker for decades. The cars were made by the Standard Motor Company of Coventry, and they offered enthusiastic buyers the typical British roadster experience of the wind in your hair and a pert little sports car to hustle around country roads. Naturally, Americans would get to experience these cars too, as evidenced by this 1962 Triumph TR3A that’s for sale right now. The car reportedly underwent a frame-off restoration in 2015, making it nice and fresh for its new owner to enjoy.
One of the most popular luxury midsize cars, the Mercedes-Benz W124 E-Class, was introduced in 1984. Since then, this sturdy German cruiser has gained a reputation for being the pinnacle of Mercedes-Benz’s bulletproof build quality and reliability. It was made as a sedan, coupe, convertible and estate. Up for sale today is a pleasant 1990 Mercedes-Benz 300CE two-door pillarless coupe with a scant 99,157 miles on the odometer. We say scant because it’s not difficult for these cars to quickly rack up mid or high six-figure mileages. So, if you want a practical modern classic that can possibly outlive you, here’s the golden ticket. The car comes with two keys, the original manual, and is reported to have all servicing done up to date.
