If you want to get your hands on a rare vintage muscle car as a surefire investment piece, you can’t go wrong with a 1971 Plymouth Barracuda. Even base model ‘Cudas can fetch a pretty penny, but it’s those examples with the rarest combo. of options that are worth the most. An orange 1971 Hemi convertible 4 speed sold for $3.5 million and a purple ‘Cuda convertible for the same price, giving you an idea of how much these vehicles can fetch.
This example is a hardtop Hemi, said to be completely original except for the oem quarter panels, 1 of 59 and comes with the original build sheet and a full Dave Wise inspection to prove everythings authentic. Not much more information comes with the listing, apart from they would accept a swap for an auto ’71 Cuda or equally good ’70s Hemi.
The car looks in magnificent shape with a clean engine bay and interior. An in-person inspection would be needed to make sure everything is pinpoint accurate, but that’s a pre-requisite for a car this expensive.
A quick look online for alternatives and I found this listing for a 1971 Plymouth Hemi ‘Cuda, also a hardtop and also saying its 1 of 59, an unrestored survivor, but priced at $479,900…..hmmmm. This listing says that only 107 1971 Hemi ‘Cudas were produced, with only 59 made with a 4 speed combo. Check out the listing here.
This is why it’s always helpful for car listings to show all its rare options to clarify its authenticity. more information is better than less, especially for an expensive vehicle. In any case, if you are serious about this car, an individual inspection would be needed just for peace of mind. If everything does check out, this is definitely an investment-grade vehicle and a great example of a vintage muscle car.
