The Chrysler Corporation has divested into several iconic automobile marques over the decades; one of these was the Plymouth marque. Introduced in 1928 as the Chrysler Corporation's budget-friendly car option indirect competition to Ford and Chevrolet. Over the years Plymouth evolved from a humble low-cost car to an iconic muscle brand during the 60s and 70s. The Plymouth Barracuda was produced from 1964 to 1974 under three generations. The Barracuda is arguably Plymouth's most sought-after car and is highly collectible. Interestingly the Barracuda and Cuda are two different trims. Up for grabs is a 1973 Plymouth Cuda with some tasty upgrades under the hood.
This 1973 Plymouth Cuda is dressed in a no-nonsense black Sikkens enamel paint, heightening its menacing looks combined with the stance. The Cuda features a distinctive quad fin design on the front fenders along with a split grill, while the hood has dual vents. It sits on a set of vintage-style American Racing solid aluminum wheels. The interior of this Cuda has been reportedly fully redone in black, with a tan headliner added. An aftermarket Kenwood radio has been installed with a set of Sony speakers. This classic muscle car also includes a rally dashboard while the center console is host to a slapstick shift with programable shift lights. In addition, a quartz movement has been added to the onboard clock.
Typical of the time, Plymouth gave their star muscle car many engine options. This 1973 Plymouth Cuda is equipped with an aftermarket top-of-the-line 440 cu 7.2L 6-Pack V8 period correct but non-numbers matching. It is mated to a 727 Torque Flite transmission with a 3000 stall converter. The engine has undergone an engine rebore of 30 over. Other upgrades to the car include ceramic coated headers, an 8 ¾ rear with a 4.11 gear ratio, a 7-quart oil pan added, and a 1" sway bar for that extra maneuverability. It is reported that all the rubber bushings have been changed to polyurethane. The suspension has also been redone as reported by the seller, while stopping power is provided by disc brakes up front and drums at the back.

The 1970s were a thriving age for American muscle cars, with more and more competitors adding their own flavor to the mix. Dodge and Plymouth E-Body cars are among the most famous muscle-era vehicles. They joined the party later than others, having arrived in 1970. In fact, some fans contend that their best years were 1970 and 1971. 1969 was the first year Plymouth used the name CUDA, which was an enthusiast package trim level. This handsome example is a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda with 80,000 miles on its clock. This example enjoys a recently installed BluePrint 408ci engine built by experts in crate engines.
The oil crisis of the 1970s marked a significant shift in the automotive industry, leading to a transition away from large-displacement engines and the temporary decline of American muscle cars. During this time, fuel-efficient Japanese vehicles emerged as a solution to the energy crisis. However, we are fortunate to have in our possession a remarkable reminder of the bygone era when American automotive giants roamed the streets without much regard for fuel efficiency. Introducing the exquisite 1973 Plymouth Barracuda, a true embodiment of the muscle car legacy. Fitted with a swapped 360ci V8 and documented mileage of 42,000 miles, this classic American beauty is poised to be cherished and admired, or driven with pure delight to your heart's content.
A little known fact in history is that while the Ford Mustang is widely considered to be the father of the Pony Car segment, Plymouth pipped them to the post by just two weeks with the Barracuda, in 1964. Chrysler had caught wind of Ford’s plan to create a small sporty car, and started working on their own which was based on the Valiant. They won the race, but the Mustang would be the definer of the class for decades to come. If you’re seeking to buy one of these unsung heroes, we’ve got a 1969 Plymouth Barracuda Fastback with a solid 100,000 miles since new, that’s reportedly seen a frame-off restoration in the last few years, and presents itself in great condition as a result.
The right muscle car is a recipe for a good time. Being behind the wheel of one equates to raw performance on demand — it's addictive, and something that very few modern cars can replicate. Present today is this 1968 Plymouth Plymouth Sport Satellite Convertible. This build is reported to be a GTX clone and has all the right ingredients to level up your expectations of a good drive.
Plymouth was one of America’s most esteemed automakers, debuting in 1928 under the vision of Walter P. Chrysler. Contrary to popular belief, its name wasn’t inspired by Plymouth Rock but rather Plymouth Binder Twine, a nod to its strong association with farmers—a strategic marketing decision to bolster sales. Although the Plymouth brand ceased production in 2001, its legacy thrives in classic models like this meticulously restored 1947 Plymouth P15 Special Deluxe. This classic car embodies Plymouth's heritage while boasting modern enhancements for superior performance, making it a coveted collectible ready for its next chapter.
Belvedere, Italian for "beautiful sight," was Plymouth's full-size car from 1954 to 1965. Then, it briefly downsized for the last generation before disappearing into obscurity. That makes final-generation examples such as this particular 1967 Plymouth Belvedere II desirable classics. As more people gravitate towards these cars, you'll get not only a lovely classic but also a shrewd investment if you buy this car now. So what are you waiting for? Buy this car and make it your New Year present.
