The Plymouth Barracuda is a member of the pony car category, created by Chrysler cooperation to add a little bit of zest to their otherwise courteous lineup of vehicles at the time. The two-door muscle car entered production in 1964 and stayed for ten years, spanning three generations before retiring in 1974. The Barracuda shared a lot of its DNA with the Plymouth Valiant but was undeniably the more playful one of the two. The second-generation Barracuda entered the scene in 1967 after a redesign. This 1968 Plymouth Barracuda comes from California with 72,000 miles on the clock and is reported to be a numbers-matching car.
The heavy redesign of the second generation brought Coke-bottle contours, as well as a revised front and rear end. Chrysler designers decided to add a touch of elegance to the Barracuda as well, giving it wider wheel openings, curved side glass, and S-curved roof pillars on the hardtop variant. This 1968 Plymouth Barracuda wears a suit of mist-green and is reported to have repainted in its original color, with the dazzling chrome trims, notably farming the split grille up front, along with the front and rear bumpers. It is a convertible and features its factory green vinyl top. It sits on period correct. Period-correct chrome Cragar wheels complete the look, and the original wheels are included in the sale as well. The interior of this Barracuda is a treat in itself. The cabin is welcoming, with pristine leather seats, subtle chrome trips and period in-dash radio. The armrests have been replaced, and the instrument clusters have been treated to a restoration too.
Under the hood, this 1968 Plymouth Barracuda is mostly original with its aforementioned numbers-matching engine and transmission. The powerplant is a 318ci (5.2L) V8 that produced 230 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque, driving the rear wheels through an automatic transmission. The car has been fitted with a new radiator and battery and is reported to have all service records up to date.
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 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.
Plymouth made some fantastic vehicles in the ’60s and '70s, capitalizing on the muscle car craze with tenacity. The Duster was one of their compact car offerings, a two-door coupe variant of their Valiant nameplate. Produced between 1969 and 1976, it offered a range of in-line six and V8 powerplants. This meant that buyers could opt for fuel economy or sheer performance. Up for sale today is a fully restored 1973 Plymouth Duster with a rebuilt V8, and all maintenance is reportedly up to date. So, if you’re searching for a great American classic car to add to your collection or start building a collection with, this car is an ideal candidate either way.
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. However, Plymouth still endowed it with V8s of varying capacities, ensuring that buyers didn’t get the typically pedestrian performance that came with compact cars. 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.
