 This amazing 1970 Plymouth Barracuda is the result of over $300,000 documented dollars spent and 2,200+ labor intensive hours invested to create this very special one of a kind '70 HEMI 'CUDA. This is your opportunity to own the premier American Muscle Machine. Less than 300 miles have been logged on this spectacular show quality muscle car.

6.1 Liter HEMI POWER by Indy Cylinder Head

Indy Cylinder Head's crate 6.1 Liter Hemi V8 is an excellent high performance engine with such features as :  fully CNC ported 6.1 Indy cylinder heads / 2.08 x 1.60 Valves / Compstar 4340 crank / Compstar H Beam Rods / Mahle Coated Pistons / 6.1 Intake CNC Port Matched Inside & Outside Polished / ARP Main, Head Studs & More. This specially tuned powerplant produces approximately 600 horsepower and 600 Ft-Lbs. of tire-shredding torque.

Induction is courtesy of dual Edelbrock 4bbl. carburetors atop an aluminum high performance intake manifold. Exhaust gases are expelled in a hurry through specially fabricated long tube headers to a polished exhaust system. Further inspection of the engine compartment will showcase the attention to detail throughout this engine bay. The firewall, inner fenders, and core support were prepared and painted along with each steel component. Cooling duties are taken care of by a polished high capacity aluminum radiator, polished billet overflow, and dual electric fans. The engine has been detailed to match the car. This is a beautiful machine, just as our high resolution photos depict.

This vehicle is striking, displaying a rotisserie nut & bolt restoration and beyond. We are proud to display this '70 Barracuda on our showroom floor. Texas Classic Cars of Dallas is located at 1912 W. Mockingbird Lane in Dallas, Texas 75235. We are open to the public 6 days out of each week. Walk-in visitors and inspections by appointment are welcomed and encouraged.

A labor of love, this '70 Barracuda features over 1,000 detailed photos of the restoration process from start to finish. This car was specially built by Sandersons Custom and Conversion Inc. in Pilot Point, Texas. We have hundreds of pages affixed in a special binder that detail all parts used and receipts for the build. Approximately $300,000 has been invested in this one-off creation. From the chemically dipped sheetmetal components to the polished exhaust system, no bolt was left unturned in this STUNNING restoration. By the way, the bent "cuda " emblem has been replaced since these photos.

 This luxury laden interior is still raw American Muscle. The Recaro Tread Topline seating features custom leather-wrapped upholstery with custom racing harnesses for the driver, passenger, and rear occupants. The seats are adjustable with sliders & feature power operated adjustments for the driver & passenger. This Barracuda has been fitted with power windows as well.

The steering wheel is custom billet aluminum and leather featuring a custom "Barracuda" flush mounted horn button. The steering column is tilt operated. The custom gauge cluster houses Autometer Pro Comp gauges that include a 160mph speedometer, 10,000rpm tachometer, fuel level gauge, water termperature, oil pressure, and voltage.

 

Sound is courtesy of Kenwood, featuring a CD head unit and a specially prepared trunk outfitted with a Kenwood amplifier and speaker assembly. 

The familiar Pistol Grip shifter goes through the gears with authority. This classic shifter is mated to a modern TKO 5-Speed Heavy Duty manual transmission that transmits power to a specially built Dana 60 rear axle assembly.

 Plymouth's 1970 model Barracuda enjoyed an extensive re-style. Today the "Cuda is arguably the most popular classic muscle car on the planet. This custom built example gives a suiting homage to Plymouth's Pony car.

This 'Cuda was originally powered by a 318 c.i. 4bbl. The Barracuda could be ordred with anything from an economical 6 cylinder engine to the not-so-economical, fire-breathing dual 4bbl. 426 cubic inch Hemi V8. This special car has also been fitted with a Shaker hood assembly and the '71 Cuda's desirable shark tooth grill assembly. It took 3 doner cars to get this grill just right.

The Shaker hood option was first offered by Plymouth in 1970.

The body boasts the famed "Go-Wing'" along with the Hemi Billboard stripes. The paint and body is excellent on this car. This is a car that was prepared from bare metal.

This stance is courtesy of the heavily massaged custom suspension setup and professionally polished Fiske wheels. These aluminum 18-inch wheels are fitted with B.F. Goodrich G-Force Radials sized at 295/35ZR18s in back and 275/35ZR18s in front. Stopping power is done with a custom 4-Wheel Power Baer disc brake setup with a hydro-boost power brake booster.

The undercarriage is show quality. The rotisserie restoration really shines underneath. The suspension is a special set-up by Sandersons Custom and Conversion. This is the level II suspension package front to back, aided with the Baer 4-Wheel Disc Braking System. The ceramic coated exhaust system sounds excellent and is fitted with polished flowmaster mufflers. The rear end is the stout Dana 60 unit. I want to mention that the categorized receipts and details of the work performed is 3-inches thick.
