I am accepting offers for my Gran Coupe. Photos are at
http://www.millermap.com/barracuda/. In addition to the extra parts mentioned below, I have a few misc. items that you might see missing in the photos such as a fender reflector and a piece of chrome molding for the front grill.
It is pretty much stock although I think the previous owner put in the velour ceiling and shag carpet. I have the original radio, wheels, extra trunk lid, and some pieces of trim that you might see missing as well as a rear valence panel that I actual bought from a Chrysler dealership years ago.
I don't think it has ever had a serious wreck but it has had a few bumps and bruises. The previous owner said he put a dent in one of the doors. I put a very small dent in one of the rear quarter panels and made the mistake of trying to fix it myself. You will also note a wierd dent in the front fender. It was parked at a friends house and a fir tree fell down in a windstorm and just missed the car but a branch made that odd downward dent.
The trunk was rusted out when I got it in the early 80's and a friend and I stupidly cut it out and welded in a piece of sheet metal. It is a real hack job and I'm always worried the gas tank will fall off. There is some minor surface rust in a few places but I think the only other serious problem is around the rear window. I don't know about the floor panels.
- It hasn't been a daily driver for about 7 years. I start it up every six months or so and drive it around the block. It has about 170,000 miles on it.
