my 1970 Barracuda looking for new home - price reduced
« on: April 12, 2008 - 11:10:01 PM »
For sale 1970 Barracuda BH23L0. Now a 440 street/strip car project. Car has run best of 12.08 at 113mph at 3200' altitude. Current engine requires race fuel. Current package is440, ported iron heads, solid cam, 3800 stall 10" convertor, Cheeta manual valve body, and brand new 3.91 "489" clutch type grip with about 9 miles on it. Many new parts, including body steel. Unibody very solid. Everything drivetrain wise has been gone thru except the lower end of the engine, I think the trans has the most miles at about 2500. Original 383 2bbl Barracuda, not a performance model, but one of 722 made. Original FE5 Tor Red, 72 Ralley gages, under hood and trunk already finished but might need touching up. Car needs fenders or rust repair in them, currently has '72-up laying in place, some minor welding under hood, and paint to be registerable in it's current shape. Grille and headlight doors are usable, but need work to be nice. Fenders and hood will need work, but all other steel for nose, and exterior of "body in white" have been repaired or replaced, prepped, blocked, and need little before painting. I have all trim (some dupes) and a bunch of new and used parts that go with it. I have clear CT title, dash tag on original dash, build sheet, original fender tag, all body numbers are clear and match. Not a performance model, but a truly rare car. Many more pics, much more detail on work done, what I think it needs, and parts included, and video to hear it run available. I am looking to sell this car, so if you might be interested, drop me a line. Price in US dollars, and vehicle is in CT and cannot be driven on road. Asking $15K but open to talk. Please dont be shy about offers. I'll consider anything. Brand new documented (never fired) pump gas 440 (est 525hp) longblock also available. Email me for pics at Jacksbud@yahoo.com or PM me here.

I agree with Al.  But it does look solid to me.   :2thumbs:

BTW, just trying to understand a bit more about the car, why is it truly a rare car?  Does it have a lot of options?   I have an L code Challenger, is it truly rare?  Not trying to be a jerk, just wondering?   :dunno:

What makes this car rare is the fact it is a Barracuda with a 383 and not a 'Cuda.  It is one of 722 BH 383 cars. :2thumbs:

I have a ton of info and pics, plus a video of it running yesterday. They are available for someone who's interested and motivated enough to ask. Not sure what an A93 car is...

Sorry Moper, that question was for 71BB.............

A93 was a Challenger Coupe, non wind down rear windows. :2thumbs:

hemiken-

Just went over to my buddies to work on my car, totally forgot to look at the tag.   :faint:

But I looked up what the A93 package is, and I have everything but the solid quarter windows I think.  I have my buildsheet handy though. 

Oh well, enough thread stealing.   ;D  Good luck with the sale, bud.   :thumbsup:
