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.
Exterior and Interior
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.
Engine
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 first-generation Plymouth Barracuda helped establish Chrysler’s foothold in the emerging pony car market during the 1960s, blending compact dimensions with unmistakable Mopar styling and V8 performance. This 1967 Plymouth Barracuda Convertible represents the final year of the first-generation A-body Barracuda and shows approximately 2,171 miles on the odometer. Finished in Ermine White over a black vinyl interior, this convertible has been upgraded with a potent 340ci Mopar V8 while retaining much of its classic period-correct charm. Featuring performance-oriented upgrades such as “J” cylinder heads, a Sure-Grip rear differential, Moser axles, and an aftermarket shift kit, this Barracuda offers a more spirited driving experience than its factory configuration while still capturing the laid-back cruising personality of a classic American convertible. With its clean styling, white soft top, and tasteful upgrades, this Mopar stands out as a unique and highly usable vintage cruiser.
The Sixties were awash with muscle cars, and the Barracuda by Plymouth was one of them. Produced between 1964 and 1974 across three generations, it quickly became a drag strip king and a street warrior. Today, a Barracuda might not be top of mind in the classic muscle car stakes, which is why this 1973 Plymouth Barracuda is definitely worth a look. Coming to you in a fetching yellow coat of paint with black performance hood, this car also features the Slap-Stik automatic gear shifter, a 360ci V8 with a dual-pump 4-barrel carb, and more. It’s up for grabs in Nahunta, Georgia right now!
The automotive brand Plymouth was a familiar trademark in the American automotive market. Established by Chrysler Corporation, Plymouth took the job of offering competitively priced vehicle options that butted heads against brands like Ford and Chevrolet. Among all variants, the Barracuda retains a special place in their collection. Manufactured to compete in the Pony Car segment, the two-door Barracuda saw the light of day in 1964 and continued production for three generations. It was discontinued in 1974, making it a desired collectible today. What we have on offer here is a 1969 Plymouth Barracuda, which is located in Concord, North Carolina. Its current owner claims that the car has only 7000 miles on its clock. This car also comes with the Broadcast Sheet, magazine articles, a copy of the 440 ’Cuda Registry, and an owner’s manual.
The Plymouth Road Runner was introduced for buyers who wanted one thing above all else: performance. By stripping away unnecessary luxury features and focusing on big-block power, Plymouth created one of the most successful muscle cars of the era. This 1968 Plymouth Road Runner Hardtop Coupe shows 57,801 miles and is powered by the legendary 383ci Magnum V8, making it a textbook example of the formula that made the Road Runner a household name among enthusiasts. Finished in an eye-catching green exterior over a white vinyl interior, this first-year Road Runner embodies the no-nonsense attitude that helped establish the model as one of the most iconic muscle cars of the late 1960s.
The Plymouth Prowler remains one of the most daring production cars to emerge from an American automaker. Introduced as a factory-built hot rod, it combined dramatic styling inspired by 1930s roadsters with modern engineering and reliability. This 2000 Plymouth Prowler shows 59,979 miles and stands out from the crowd thanks to its custom Black and Orange paint scheme that further emphasizes the car’s already attention-grabbing design. In addition to its unique appearance, this example benefits from several upgrades, including an aftermarket ECU, power window conversion, and a front-end camera system. For collectors and enthusiasts seeking a modern classic that draws attention wherever it goes, this Prowler delivers a driving experience and visual presence unlike virtually anything else on the road.
The Plymouth Prowler remains one of the boldest production cars ever built by an American manufacturer. Conceived as a modern interpretation of a classic hot rod, the Prowler blended retro-inspired styling with advanced engineering, including an aluminum-intensive chassis and rear-mounted transaxle. This 2001 Plymouth Prowler has traveled just 25,295 miles and is finished in iconic Prowler Orange Pearl, a color that perfectly complements the car’s unmistakable personality. Tasteful upgrades such as a carbon fiber hood vinyl wrap, chrome-covered A-arms, and Foose Legend wheels enhance its already dramatic appearance while preserving the spirit of the original design. Whether parked at a car show or cruising down the boulevard with the top down, this low-mileage Prowler offers a rare opportunity to own one of the most distinctive and collectible American vehicles of the modern era.
