Plymouth Barracuda 1970 Description
Up for sale is my 1970 Barracuda BH23G0E car. Quite the rare one (1 of 705)- and I wonder how many were built in this combo, maybe 10?: Original Rallye Red with full red interior; a black painted roof V02, V5X (not vinyl) with the rear stainless trim. Has it right on the fender tag. Original 14" Rallye wheels and nice caps are included. Has 7-1/4 rear end, not sure of the gear. I've learned it should have a 9-1/4" rear which must have been swapped early in life. I do have a E-body 8-3/4 complete w/ brakes for an extra cost (inquire).It gets better- the car is an original 318 & pistol grip 4-speed non-console car. The original engine is missing.I do have a complete core short block 360 that I can toss in the deal. The transmission and shifter /boot/ rods/ bellhousing, etc. is complete and still in the car. It has never been removed & in good working order. I don't have the flywheel or clutch. I do have the inspection cover and misc. linkage.
The car will need full interior restoration, but it's all present & complete. Nice seat belts & trim. All lights function as they should. Standard gauge cluster and all dash pieces are in nice condition, nothing broken- just needs a new pad. Odometer shows 37100.
The car is a California car, just recently moved to WI. The underside is super clean (not the typical rotbox, rust-belt crappy scale or rust). Plus, save the time & money of transporting from CA.
The ONLY metal that it need is the lower rear quarters replaced. I have purchased the full AMD quarter skins and extensions as well as a new rear valance panel & hardware. All this is included ($1000 worth). The Barracuda needs a 1" spot just in front of each hood hinge & a 2" spot on pass. door (both very localized). Mint fenders, hood, roof, door lips, trunk lips, trunk floor, interior floors, engine bay, etc. are all very nice. It's a huge savings/bonus in the time & money department. I can have the panels and repairs done professionally for an extra cost- and primer it in. (inquire by message).
All the wiring harness is still intact and in great condition. The Barracuda is a manual drum brake, manual steering car. Both are in good working condition. All body #'s match, fender tag is present, no build sheet found. The car has the original paint in places with an old faded light coat of red primer on tops and sides. Some of the Rallye red can be seen around the taillights, quarters, door jambs & in engine bay. The original black can be seen in places on the roof as well. The car is very straight overall, never has been in an accident.
The grill and headlight bezels are very nice, just needing new paint- saving you $1000 to find one. The front turn signal lenses only have one small crack in the pass. side- very presentable. Tail lights & bezels are super nice. Both bumpers are straight, just faded. Overall- this car is Barracuda has great bones. No searching for parts and pieces & no expensive grills, lenses, etc. An easy restoration. It's not a BS- 'Cuda, so drop in that Hemi, 6-pack or stroker engine & have some fun! Factory pistol grip 4-speed.
Add exhaust, a clutch & flywheel- drive it for a while. Brakes and electrical all work fine. No trades. Please message me through Ebay, I check very often. Car is for sale on other sites and could sell anytime. I can help with transporting in the Midwest/ inquire. 608-825-4932
