Pick Of The Day: 1971 Plymouth Barracuda, Numbers Matching
Engine: 383.
Transmission: Manual.
Mileage: 89,000
Price: US $179,000.00
This 71 Plymouth Barracuda looks like it is completely original, apart from a re-paint in its original color, but apart from that, the car has just been very well looked after over the years, which is rare in itself.
Great condition, but not national show condition, but this is really a small price to pay for this level of rarity.
For a 71 numbers matching Plymouth Barracuda, the price is definitely worth it, especially in this condition.
‘Condition: This is an original car that has not ever been completely disassembled and restored. It still has its character and patina. This is the condition that I like to find a car in. It is impossible to know what a fully restored car was like before the resto. A full resto wipes away the history of the car. A car like this shows that it was a loved car and has never been abused and stripped out or worse. The original owner cleaned the car up by having it repainted the factory color and detailing the engine compartment. The quality of the detailing is not national show level. There are imperfections. For example, the car was Z barted when new, which helped keep this car from rusting. Some of the coating was left in the engine compartment when it was painted. Someone may look at it and think that it is just factory sealer which is supposed to be painted over but it is not. The air cleaner was painted gloss black instead of wrinkle finish. small ding on tip of fender.The paint on the body is what I would describe as good enough for local shows and above driver condition but not national show quality. All the sheet metal is original except for partial rear quarters. The fenders do not appear to have ever been removed. The original trunk floor is clean. The original Leather interior has no split seams and looks fantastic. The original Dash pad has no cracks and looks amazing. All the glass and top are in excellent condition. The bottom of the car was undercoated at the factory and shows no signs of rust anywhere. ‘
