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 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.
A little known fact in history is that while the Ford Mustang is widely considered to be the father of the Pony Car segment, Plymouth pipped them to the post by just two weeks with the Barracuda, in 1964. Chrysler had caught wind of Ford’s plan to create a small sporty car, and started working on their own which was based on the Valiant. They won the race, but the Mustang would be the definer of the class for decades to come. If you’re seeking to buy one of these unsung heroes, we’ve got a 1969 Plymouth Barracuda Fastback with a solid 100,000 miles since new, that’s reportedly seen a frame-off restoration in the last few years, and presents itself in great condition as a result.
One way of finding out whether a car is unique or iconic would be the mere mention of it, sparking an image in a person's mind. One such car is the legendary Plymouth Barracuda. Built to take on the pony car market, this 1967 Plymouth Barracuda sports a host of tasteful upgrades to whack a smile on your face every time you’re behind the wheel while also being a lovely example of Sixties Plymouth goodness.
The '70s saw big changes for the American automotive industry; the oil crisis meant large gas guzzlers were out the door, and the American car buyer had to embrace the fuel-sipping performance showcased by imports. Prior to 1973, however, the world was filled with performance and sharp looks; today, it is an example of intense performance and good looks that stems from the golden era of muscle cars. Are you looking to get your hands on your very own example of unfiltered muscle? This 1970 Plymouth Road Runner could be the answer.
Before the widespread adoption of SUVs and crossovers, the humble minivan ruled the roads of family-oriented or practical drivers. But while the word minivan may not have the same panache as other body styles, you’d have to grant the 1994 Plymouth Grand Voyager SE an exception. Here was a van that, despite its multitalented resume, exudes sensible style, recapturing some of the best memories from the ’90s. Finding another low-mileage example in the displayed condition would be a very tricky task, but this timewarp van could be yours. The sale includes a plethora of original sales documents from the first owner, as well as some original books and manuals.
The Plymouth Duster is a compact car that spanned the 1970-1976 period. Plymouth may not have known at the time, but the compact yet sporty Duster was great for the Malaise Era since it was a smaller and lighter car, hence less affected by the strangled power outputs caused by the draconian emissions controls that came into force. That's why you'll be well-served by adding this 1974 Plymouth Duster to your collection. With a mere 40,200 miles, you can tell that it's a low-mileage, lightly-used example. It also comes with some interesting stickers on the dashboard, harking back to the Seventies and providing a further sense of nostalgia for days gone by.
