                  1974 Plymouth Barracuda     B5 Lucerne Blue / White Interior (rare color combo) Original numbers engine & transmission Very rare car,  low production 1 of only 1194 produced                     VIN BH23G4B354723           Up for auction is my very original 1974 Plymouth Barracuda.   This car has the original engine, transmission and rear end.  It was also repainted in its original color of Lucerne Blue.  The white interior is also the correct color per the fender tag.  This is a rare and desirable color combo.  The car is a very unmolested car.  I believe all the body panels to be original to the car.  Many if not all of the body panels have the original numbers stamped into them (fenders, hood, radiator support, trunk).  Original fender tag on the drivers side fender (see decode info below).  The mileage on the car reads 68,157 which I believe could be the original miles.      The car idles, runs and drives great.  Drives straight down the freeway with no pulling or wandering.  Engine idles smooth and steady (see the videos of the engine running in this auction).  It has factory air conditioning, power steering, disc brakes and dual exhaust.  The exhaust note is nice, not too loud but has a low rumble.   The engine is the original 318 with chrome valve covers and air cleaner added (I have the original air cleaner and valve covers).  It has new carpet and the front seat covers appear to be new.  All the electricals work- horn, lights, blinkers, brake lights, interior dome light, etc.  The fuel guage and radio do not work.  The car also has new tires with the hard to find rally ‘road wheels’.   In the trunk is a full spare wheel/tire and original jacking equipment.   This car is in driver condition, not a show car but looks amazing - perfect for Sunday drives and local shows.  It gets a ton of looks going down the road and I receive many compliments on this car.  It is a very rare with a low production number of around 1194 cars made.  Even less in this color combination.  I have the original build sheet, original owners manual and original keys for the car.           VIN Breakdown:   1974 Barracuda VIN Decode:   BH23G4B354723   Make   B = Plymouth Barracuda   Price Class   H = High   Body Type   23 = 2 Door Hardtop   Drive Train   G = 318 cid, 1-2bbl 8 CYL   Model Year   4 = 1974   Assembly Plant   B = Dodge Main, Hamtramck, MI, USA   Sequence Number   354723 = 254722th Vehicle       Fender Tag Decode:   1974 Barracuda Fender Tag:        25   L2    529          G51     H51    M21     N76   R11    V62    V1W       U      B41  C16    C56    G11    KB5       A6XW     000   322    423511    E44       D34      BH23  G4B    354723                 BH23:  Plymouth Barracuda High, 2door  Hardtop G4B: 318 150HP(net) or 170HP(net) 1-2BBL 8 CYL 1974 Dodge Main, Hamtramck, MI, USA 354723: Sequence number           E44:      318 cid 2 barrel V8 230hp     D34:     Automatic Transmission   KB5:     Lucerne Blue Poly Exterior Color   A6XW:             Trim - Basic, Vinyl Bucket Seats, Interior Colors Black/White   000:      Full Door Panels   322:      Build Date: March 22   423511: Order number   V1W:    Full Vinyl Top, White   U:         USA Specifications   B41:     Front Disc Brakes w/Standard 10in RR Drum   C16:     Console w/Woodgrain Panel   C56:     Bucket Seats   G11:     Tinted Glass (all)   G51:     Remote Mirror, Drivers side   H51:     Air Conditioning with Heater   M21:     Roof drip rail moldings   N76:     Coolant Recovery System   R11:     Radio Solid State AM (2 Watts)   V6W:    Longitudinal Stripes, White   25:        Unknown   L2:       Unknown   529:      Unknown               Please read my feedback, it speaks for itself.  The factory put these cars together well, I see a lot of restored stuff that does not go back too well.  I have the car priced with a low reserve….this is a car that someone can take to the next restoration level, or drive and show now.   Feel free to email me with any questions.   This is a very rare car, very low production, especially in this color combination.  There is no doubt that this car will appreciate in value over the next several years and is better than money sitting in your bank account, since you can enjoy the car while it appreciates (should appreciate faster than the interest from the loan for that matter).  This is a great example of an original Barracuda. It is seldom one finds a car like this and it is getting harder to find  cars in this kind of original condition…..so bid early, don’t miss out!   A lot of my auctions end early, so if you have a price in mind, please call me!               (please wait for all pictures to load)   Exterior                                               Engine                                 Interior         Trunk and Undercarriage                               Documents         ****For a video clip of the car click the play button below:         https://youtu.be/LVOrDSD7roM         https://youtu.be/ak_QhOpwZRs         https://youtu.be/yRCzX9Pl8wQ               https://youtu.be/8t9eJhRwmsM       https://youtu.be/ZG_56zIiIog                                 I encourage you to read my feedback.
