In late 2009 this 1967 Plymouth Barracuda Convertible received a no-expense-spared rotisserie restoration and has only been driven 200 miles since. Since sheet metal and interior parts are not readily available for these cars, it took three donor cars to complete this project. The car is reported to be presented in “showroom quality” after this fastidious work.
The paint on the undercarriage of this car shines the same as the top of the car. The date-correct engine was rebuilt to OEM specs with correct carburetor, manifolds and factory air conditioning. The console-shift automatic transmission was completely rebuilt will all new parts, as was the original 8 3Z4 rear end. The car was put back to its original power steering with manual drum brakes and original Plymouth White paint per the cars factory paint code. All Legendary Auto Interiors and top were used, as well as Firestone redline bias-ply tires.
The car is an AACA senior badge winner scoring a 98.3 and being invited to the AACA top 100 cars for three straight years. This is a concours ready, OEM specifications car that has won its class in four of four shows when it was presented. The Barracuda has been driven a little over 200 miles since its restoration. It runs strong and everything works as expected. It is stored in a climate controlled showroom quality warehouse since completion.
