Final Year E-Body/440ci 6-Pack V8/A727 Auto/Great Driver/Gullwing Spoiler
1974 Plymouth Barracuda Hardtop
Right at the end of the early 70's muscle car mayhem, we find this consignment swimming around in our Hallowed Halls in the form of a tastefully done 'Cuda tribute. Bathed in smooth and slippery Pearl White Tricoat paint, this 1974 Plymouth Barracuda stands out from the other horses, snakes and spyders that grace our overstuffed halls. This predator has some extra bite with a 440ci V8, an Edelbrock intake, a 6-pack carburetor set up, and sweet muscle car design, looking like it's right out of the 1974 Plymouth factory.
Exterior
The beneficiary of all panels stripped, filled where needed, sprayed with Pearl White Tricoat, then dressed with glossy black 1970 vintage hockey stick engine call out stripes, I find myself in muscle car heaven! Overall the panels are straight, gaps are well minded and the exterior is straight and true. The black decal begins just behind the long doors and continues to the rear quarter where it takes a sharp downward turn and surrounding the 440 designation before dying just above the rear bumper. I'll call it 70's fab! The black rear deck panel houses 4 round tail lights and is framed below by a small chrome bumper that has been tucked in and the rubber protection blocks on either side removed, all in good condition. Badging back here shows a little wear but is period correct and uses 'Cuda. Up front an original split grille with black inserts and dual angled rearward intake snouts feeds air to the radiator and a twin scooped hood, complete with hood pins and 440 Six Pack call outs give the perfect muscle car look. Lest I forget the 1971 style Gullwing spoiler adorning the trunk lid and the crystal clear glass and chromed surrounds just on the edges of the roof. 15-inch Weld DragLite wheels are all around and are shod in staggered width blackwall rubber.
Interior
Very nice and tasteful would best describe all surfaces in the passenger compartment. All black fuzzy broadcloth covers the buckets, and a rear bench featuring tuck and roll inside panels and smooth bolsters with snappy charcoal gray piping. Black plastic is on the dash panel which is complete with a speedo, trio of gauges, (fuel etc), and a black round to let your imagination run wild. We move onto the Michelin man like steering column, which is topped by a 2 spoked drilled black rimmed steering wheel and to the top right of the cluster is a chrome bezel aftermarket oil pressure gauge. Racing between the seats is a black plastic console with a nice wood applique insert and the Seattle Space Needle style slap-stick shifter. New like carpet in black floats under the seats, while the headliner is like new and we see a slightly cracked and worn padded topper for the dash. Door handles, locks, and smooth black molded plastic are on both sides of the buckets.
Drivetrain
The circa 1969 440ci V8 engine has been refreshed and sports a trio of 2-barrel carburetors to feed fuel to the mill through an Edelbrock intake manifold. A non original A727 Torqueflite automatic transmission behind this healthy mill. An 8-3/4 inch rear axle throws power out to the rear tires and makes you go forward…quickly.
Undercarriage
Peering underside, black floor pans, toe kicks, and rockers peppered with black shiny unibody construction, framing, suspension, and a sprinkling of surface rust is noted on the usual suspects and untreated components. Of note, there is a small amount of invasive rust to be seen at the rear of the driver's side rear unibody rail but all else remains solid. I see headers and new dual exhaust with Glasspack style mufflers. Keeping this fish well footed, (wait....fish don't walk), is an independent torsion bar front suspension, and leaf spring rear suspension under here. Also, front disc brakes and rear drum brakes are mechanically sound.
Drive-Ability
An overall good experience with the nicely powered 440ci V8, nice interior, and all working inside and out save for the wipers getting caught on the stainless trim at the rear of the hood, a common E-body Mopar issue. A quick starter, a quick accelerator, and smooth shifting from the 3-speed and this one is a quickie, as well as offering up a big car ride for the cruise section of the test drive.
A very well done, with little fault to be found throughout this muscle car. Eye catching Pearl White paint, glossy black stickers, like new interior, and nice power curves, this is now right at the end of the 1970's muscle car era. Ooooooooh BARRACUDA! I'll dangle the shiny keys to lure you in.

Big block power with 565 cubic inches of displacement and lots of friends, this car is wild. Opening on the sight of six American muscle car masterpieces, 1320 seemingly has their work cut out for them in the information department. That's because the collection features such icons as a bright red Chevrolet Bel Air, a yellow Camaro, and what looks like a lifted Chevrolet K10. In fact, the owner seems to have a mighty strong affection for GM and Chevrolet automobiles. On top of all that, there i read more
