1970 PLYMOUTH HEMI CUDA CONVERTIBLE 426 HEMI PISTOL GRIP This Barracuda was carefully transformed into the next best thing — a recreation of a Hemi ’CudaWHY SPEND $1,000,000 PLUS FOR A REAL HEMI CUDA CONVERTIBLE AND BE AFRAID TO ENJOY IT!It is hard to believe that Chrysler’s Plymouth brand has been extinct for almost 14 years, but back in the late 1960s and early 1970s, the Plymouth division was producing some of the most sought-after performance offerings on the road. The Plymouth Barracuda was first produced in 1964 as a stylish coupe based on the venerable Valiant and the new car’s fastback design featured distinctive wraparound back glass. The second-generation Barracuda was unleashed on the street for 1967 and while it was still based on the value-minded Valiant, the new Barracuda had been thoroughly redesigned and could be ordered in fastback, notchback and convertible versions. When Chrysler unveiled the 1970 Plymouth Barracuda, the third-generation muscle car rode on an all new platform (E-body) and was available in coupe and a convertible variants. The new frame and chassis was based on a shortened version of the company’s B platform, which was also widened significantly to increase interior room and give the car improved road holding characteristics and a new-found feeling of stability at speed. This last evolution of the Barracuda corresponded with the arrival of a new stablemate, that being the equally dynamic dodge challenger. The two cousins shared many components, but no sheet metal. In fact, the Challenger featured a longer wheelbase than the Barracuda, albeit just two inches. Under the hood, you will find an date coded 426 Hemi with two Holley four-barrel carburetors. This masterpiece of engineering produces around 450hp horsepower.The benefit of owning a clone is that you can enjoy the car and drive it on a regular basis because additional mileage and a little wear and tear won’t hammer the car’s value like it would on a numbers-matching original. Who wants to spend an afternoon in the garage wiping dust off of a rare trophy car with a cotton diaper when you can be carving apexes and smoking tires with the next best thing? I acquired this pretty car from a client who had spent a rather large sum of money to transform the very straight muscle car into a faithful reproduction of the venerable Hemi ’Cuda I now have decided to part with it. Bid in hopes of spending plenty of time behind the wheel enjoying one of the most exciting muscle-car driving experiences to ever come out of Detroit.Beautiful Plum Crazy Paint that was repainted 3yrs ago.
