OVERVIEW
This 1968 Plymouth Barracuda convertible receives power from a newer 340ci V8 mated to a TorqueFlite 727 three-speed automatic transmission. It has been equipped with Formula S badges, an Edelbrock air intake, W2 heads, electronic ignition, new Gabriel shocks, and Rallye wheels with BFGoodrich tires. Finished in blue and equipped with a black convertible top over a black vinyl interior, this second-generation Barracuda is now offered with a clear Texas title.
EXTERIOR – FEATURES
The reportedly rust-free body was repainted blue under prior ownership 15 years ago. Equipment includes chrome brightwork, Formula S badging on the front fenders, a driver-side mirror, wheel arch and rocker moldings, a black convertible top with a plastic rear window, and a dual exhaust system. The seller notes that there is a six-inch crack on the passenger side of the windshield and that the fender trim tag is absent.
EXTERIOR – WHEELS AND TIRES
Steel Rallye wheels with polished trim rings are wrapped in BFGoodrich Radial T/A raised-white-letter tires.
INTERIOR – FEATURES
The interior is fitted with black vinyl bucket seats up front, a black vinyl bench in the rear, and matching finishes for the door panels, dash, console, and carpeting. Features include simulated woodgrain trim, a steering wheel wrap, floor mats, a heater, lap belts, and a trunk-mounted spare tire.
INTERIOR – GAUGES
Instrumentation includes a 150-mph speedometer along with a combination gauge that shows the voltage, fuel level, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. An additional aftermarket three-gauge pod is mounted under the center of the dash. The five-digit mechanical odometer reads 7,096 miles, but the true mileage on the chassis is unknown.
ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION
The upgraded 340ci V8 has a 1973 casting date, W2 heads, an Edelbrock air-gap intake, electronic ignition, headers, and a Dakota starter. An oil change was performed in April 2022. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a console-shifted TorqueFlite 727 three-speed automatic transmission with a manual valve body and an 8.75-inch rear end with 3.23 gearing.
UNDERCARRIAGE
The suspension benefits from new Gabriel shocks up front and new Gabriel adjustable air shocks in the rear.
