This 1968 Plymouth Barracuda has a cool/classic look, but it also doesn't take much to recognize the heart of a true street-eating beast. Oh yes, this has a well-built 440 V8, upgraded suspension, and four-on-the-floor. And more than just powerful, this restored hardtop has plenty of added details that give it a terrific vintage car distinction.
Before we dive into the beastly side of this Barracuda, let's appreciate the first impression this car gives off. The pillarless hardtop is a staple of muscle car style. In fact, these second-gen cars show the first hints at the iconic styling touches that would be exaggerated for the '70s 'Cudas. Plus, the fastback model outsold the hardtop coupes like this one in 1968, so there's even a rarity factor here. This had a restoration in the mid-2000s, and they paid attention to details. So you have a color that's close to 1968's Frost Blue. And there are the right details, like hood vent trim, color-matched wheels with dog dish hubcaps, and the unique side S-style stripes. So your first impression might just be a very cool classic. There are only subtle hints at the full performance within, like the extra meaty rear tires, large dual exhaust tips, and fiberglass used for the trunk lid and front fenders to save weight and add speed.
