Up for auction, without a reserve, is a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda project car. This car is a perfect candidate for a 440 big block heart transplant, or clone to a hemi car, six pack car, or build a race car.
Some history on the car may be of help in understanding the condition. Sometime in the 1990’s, the previous owner bought three 1970 Barracudas as restoration projects for when he retired. Prior to his planned retirement he was injured and was restricted to very minor activities, so the Barracudas had to be sold. The first two of his Barracudas were quite nice cars and were sold quickly. This car, last of his three Barracuda was somewhat of a parts car, had some front end damage, a non-running motor, and was missing some parts.
As he observed the appreciating value of a 1970 Barracuda, he decided to try and find the missing parts for his last car. He hired a handyman relative to help him work on the car but soon lost interest and it was parked in a shed in his back yard.
About a month ago he called me and asked if I was interested in buying the car as-is. He had found a few more parts (seats, steering column, tail lights etc). We installed his seats, steering column, and tail lights, and did a major clean-up to the current condition. Some of the photos show a work in progress.
This is a very restorable car, but will need some metal work and a lot of TLC. As I see it you will need the Dutchman panel below the back window, the lower rear quarters, at least the pan portion of the trunk floor, trunk extensions, header panel, and at least the passenger front fender. It appears the front and rear valances are repairable, and possibly the drivers side front fender. The hood, roof, and doors appear to be in very good condition. The floor pans are very nice, and frame rails are solid. There are a couple of rust spots in the windshield frame that will need to be repaired. The windshield is broken, and the back glass is just setting in place to show completeness.
There are some obvious items missing. The grille and front valance insert, passenger side tail light bezel, complete interior, two marker lights, complete drive train, some window moldings, and undoubtedly many others. I included a photo of the original header panel and grille to show the extent of the original front end damage. The fender tag is missing, but I have the factory build sheet (in pieces).
Most all of the missing or damaged pieces to completely restore this car are readily available thanks to AMD and many other aftermarket suppliers. A few years ago a car in this condition might have been only usable as a parts car. But with all the available parts all you basically need is a good quality rolling shell, which this car is.
A 1970 or 1971 Cuda are about the top rung for collectible Mopar muscle cars. It seems everyone is attracted to a nicely done Cuda, even if it is a clone car. Ninety nine percent of people at a car show don’t know the difference between a real car and a tribute car. It is common to see these cars sell for $65K or above, with a very nice big block restoration.
You are welcome to view the car personally, or contact me directly for more information. I can be reached at (801) 910-6306. It will obviously need to be trailered if you pick it up in person. I live near Provo, Utah just off interstate highway I-15, zip code 84003. Look at the photos carefully, call and ask any questions, but what you see is what you get. The car needs a full and total restoration. I have a newly updated clear Utah title in my name.
