*****PLEASE NOTE: WHOEVER MAKES AN OFFER MUST LEAVE A PHONE NUMBER SO I CAN CALL YOU TO MAKE SURE YOU'RE REAL AND YOUR OFFER IS LEGIT ***** UP FOR AUCTION IS A GREAT LOOKING PLUM CRAZY PURPLE 1972 PLYMOUTH BARRACUDA WITH BIG BLOCK 440CI/375HP POWER THAT IS TURN-KEY AND READY TO HIT THE STREETS!!!. ORIGINAL BUILD SHEET AVAILABLE AND ODOMETER SHOWS 27K MILES. VERY SHARP CRUISER THAT WILL BE A LOT OF FUN FOR COLLECTOR OR ENTHUSIAST. Factory options: Manual Steering Manual Brakes (front DISCS) Standard bucket seat interior Dual exhaust w/rear valence cutouts Rear spoiler Factory Torqueflite automatic transmission 440 hockey stripe kit 8 3/4" rear end Mopar rally wheels w/radial tires Vinyl roof Body color painted bumpers Vehicle comes from Mass, and is now in NY in my garage for the last few weeks. This is an older restoration on a pretty solid and straight 72 Barracuda. When I got it, I cleaned it up a little, put a newer exhaust/mufflers, detailed the engine a bit, newer radial tires and did some minor mechanical tuning. This is a virtually TURN-KEY driver that you can get in and enjoy now! Under the hood lies a mostly stock 440ci motor that has been upgraded with some bolt-on performance parts such as: Edelbrock aluminum intake, Edelbrock 600cfm 4bbl. carburetor, dual exhaust, and mild performance camshaft. It starts up beautifully and runs excellent. I took the valve covers off and it was very clean under there. Interior is in GOOD shape and mostly original condition with general wear here and there. Seats are nice with the rear lower cushion having some seam splits. Door panels have some general wear, but nicely presentable. Carpet is older but presentable. Dash pad looks good. Console nice just missing the button for the center cover. Headliner missing. Overall a fairly presentable driver quality interior! Mechanically, the car is TURN-KEY and drives pretty well. I've mostly driven it around town and a few times on the highway and it performs very well. Always starts at the turn of the key, gets decent gas mileage if you drive it normally, and is very easy to drive. Brakes stop very well. Overall a great driver that you can easily enjoy now without doing a single thing to it. Being a 40 year old car, it is NOT perfect by any means. Paint shines up fairly well for a driver, with general small imperfections from driving as you would expect (some small chips, scratches, small dings etc). Also has some checking in some areas if you look closely, like top of fenders. Bottom corners of doors have a few tiny bubbles coming up. Trunk pan has has prior patch work by inner wheel wells, but overall solid with NO holes. Floorboards look very good with NO major rot or rust holes. Excellent frame. Missing: headliner, sunvisors, antenna, cable for remote driver's mirror, lower fog light lenses, fender tag. Not working: horn, radio, couple of smaller dash gauges, may need a couple of bulbs replaced, fog lights. That's about all I was able to notice from my inspection, but i'm sure i've missed a few small things so please keep that in mind. IT'S A VERY NICE CAR WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO DRIVE IT AS IS OR DO VERY MINOR TLC TO BRING IT UP TO THE NEXT LEVEL! THIS IS AN ABSOLUTELY GREAT CAR IN THIS 1972 PLYMOUTH BARRACUDA 440 WITH 27K MILES ON THE ODOMETER, FACTORY BUILD SHEET, AND KILLER PLUM CRAZY PAINT COLOR.
