Hamtrack -- WELCOME to CC!   I'm up in the Chgo NW suburbs... and I have some very good Mopar friends in Central IL... (McNabb, Peoria, others).   Where do you live?  What's your prime interests, etc with the Cuda.. and Mopars?

Looked at the  ad Alan and I sure hope he describes the car better than he spells! I really liked the "duel" exhaust- hope they don't hurt each other.  :smilielol:

You should have mentioned a trade in your EBay ad, it reaches a much larger audience so you never know !

You should call this dealer, they might go for a straight up trade  :dunno: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1971-Plymouth-Barracuda-CUDA-/282276454117?forcerrptr=true&hash=item41b8fcdee5:g:3-UAAOSwo4pYQG62&item=282276454117
I emailed this guy about a possible trade for his '71. He wanted pics and video that I sent. No response, that was a week ago. Maybe he thinks he can get 50K for his 'Cuda "Tribute".

I live in Pekin, south of Peoria.Have owned 30 or so MoPars since 1979. I'd really like to trade my '70 for a clean '71 Barracuda w/factory 340 or 383 2 or 4 bbl. of equal value. If you know of anything up north let me know. Thanks,Jim.
