Vehicle Detail
Up for auction is a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda. The car is a recent “Barn Find” and has been sitting in a garage for the last 8-10 years following the minor front end fender bender. The previous owner had been driving this car as his daily “drive to work car” until someone pulled out in front of him and damaged the front bumper, header panel and center grille section. The previous owner could not find a replacement grille and header panel at the time, so he just parked it in his garage. We have a replacement center grille section and header panel to help with the repair of the front end damage. The car is an original Utah car, and is a very solid, straight, with minimal rust. (see photos) We have the original build sheet, and a clear signed off Utah title. The car is still wearing its original paint and white vinyl top, all its original interior, carpet and door panels and the odometer shows 87,000 miles. It could easily be called a “survivor” as it is so unmolested. Fender tag reads as follows: M21 N95 R11 Y05 26 EN1 V1W A01 C16 C55 H51 L31 FF4 N6F3 000 B14 T22047 E44 D31 BH23 G0B 190893 We have done very little to this car other than trailer it home, wash off 10 years of dust and dirt, and put in a battery. We flushed out the old gas, put in some fresh fuel and it started right up. We check all the fluids and have been driving the car around the neighborhood. It runs and drives great, all the lights work, the brakes are good, and with the front end repaired it could probably be a daily driver. PROS · This is a very solid and dry Utah car with minimal rust. All the floor pans are solid with no rust through. Trunk floor has some rust issues that will need to be patched or repaired. Trunk extensions and lower quarters will need some rust repair, the frame rails are rock solid. · This is a running driving car that still turns heads. · When was the last time you saw an original paint car, that still had some shine to the paint? · Car is very straight with no obvious signs of a serious past accident other than the current front damage. · Glass is all good, and still has original factory windshield, door panels are useable as is · The car is 99% complete, so there are not a lot of missing parts to locate. · It would be a perfect candidate for a 340, 360 or big block heart transplant. · New dual exhaust system · New aftermarket wheels and new tires. (previous owners says about 2000 miles) · It is a 1970 model which is more desirable, and carries a higher value restored than later models CONS · The car needs a lot of restoration work. · This is a green 318 Barracuda, not a red big block Cuda. · Front end damage that needs repair · Truck floor and lower quarters needs replacement or repair · Radio and outside mirrors are not original I have tried to describe this car in as much detail, and as honestly as possible. There are likely some issues that I have not addressed. This car is sold AS-IS with NO warranty. I can help with shipping and will deliver the car to an address within 300 miles of Salt Lake City, Utah. If there are any additional questions please call Jeff at 8zero1 91zero-63zero6
