WIW - 1969 Plymouth Barracuda

[Cudaragtop]

I'm going to go look at this car tomorrow.
340 4 speed Fomula S matching numbers. B7 Blue outside with B5 and White interior.
I think he is high but I do like Fastback Barracudas and 69 340 4 speed Formula S is probably my favorite.
I think these cars are under valued today and have some upside potential.
$17k aint ever going to happen but is $12k or $10k still to high?
Has a couple small pin holes in the LF lower fender will need a patch and another spot on the drivers side inner fender.
Engine bay has been rattle bomb sprayed. Engine ran good... of course I won't know until we get it running again. He took it apart to paint in 2004...
I'll see if he has progress pictures.

I like it. I think it would be pretty decent even at 12k. I got $8500 for a brown 318 auto in similar condition. I love the B7 blue on this one.

I've posted on a few of these 67-69 Barracuda threads, some guys value them right along side dirt... I like them allot & I'd pay quite a bit more than dirt But 10K at the stage this car is at might be a tad high... I'd probably feel ok at 8500ish...

Looked it over pretty well and made a cash offer. We were thousands apart and that's where I left it.
Has some rust, some bondo, some unknowns... not running, has a couple paint jobs under the rattle can primer, needs new interior. Has decent Stailness, needs new or re-chromed everything.
Told him to call me if his price comes down.
Been on CL for about a week so we'll wait and see...

I would agree with the $9k-12k range, it needs a lot of love by the sounds of it. but a-body Barracudas are coming up. finished example: $25K http://carsonline-ads.com/colsite/col?use=UC3_ViewPosting&cmd=showPosting&postingID=83492   this would be a beast with the Hemi, http://carsonline-ads.com/colsite/col?use=UC3_ViewPosting&cmd=showPosting&postingID=63830

I love those cars however they aren't priced like E-bodies. $10k would be lots for a complete project.

We decided to go with a plain jane non numbers car to do a resto mod.

Tomorrow I'm picking up a new flatbed tilt trailer on my way to Vancouver WA and buying this one.
The owner sent me lots of pictures and it looks like it might need a few patches at minimum but all new quarters would not bother me.
Asking $3950, No engine.
Has 8-3/4 big Big Bolt pattern rear and Big Bolt Front Disc Brake front end
318 Column shift bucket seat car.
it was $4500 a few weeks ago. Think I saw it last year too...

On the road home

And home again. Long Day.


All in $6750 for a brand new tilt trailer and car. My son turned 17 yesterday. We have our Project. We both scored!  Goal is to finsh by his 18th.
His first car 2016, a 69 Barracuda Fastback, my first car 1980, a 69 Barracuda Fastback. Last time I bought one of these, I paid $100 bucks for a decent runner with AC.
