1973 Plymouth Barracuda Cuda Mopar on 2040-cars

This my 1973 cuda I have owned for 3 years and I am letting it go now. I purchased the car from a man who was very ill after catching Sars while on a business trip to China. He was not real clear with all the facts on the car so I list all he told me. He said the 340 engine in the car to his recollection it was not the original motor but he had the engine in the car built. The engine was built by a local Mechanic but he did not give me any of the motor specs on what went into the build.  The motor is real tight and has a real nice cam and sounds amazing. He said the engine was built 2 years earlier. He didn’t drive the car much so the miles on the motor are low. The miles on the odometer are 96255, I would say probably are the actual miles on the car but they exempt the miles on old cars in South Carolina. So the title shows exempt for miles. The exhaust system looks to be flow masters or something similar. They sound really good. It has a 727 torque flight transmission and a 8 3/4 rear end. When I purchased the car it was Panther Pink and the paint was getting weak so I took it to a shop and had the car completely stripped dow to the metal and repainted. The new paint job is sublime green with painted stripes and a cuda decal which has been covered with clear coat. The paint is amazing and rather costly running the total for the paint job at 7500 dollars but worth every penny. The paint has no scratches or chips in it at all. The paint code on the car says that the original color was black but I have never been a big fan of keeping a black paint job looking clean especially at out door car shows. The body on the was totally rust free and has always been in south carolina.It is laser straight with no wabbles or waves at all. The interior is real nice with nice headliner seats are real nice but there is a small tear at a seam on the drivers seat. The carpet looks original but not tore up.  All the gauges work including the  gas gauge, tach, and even the clock. The speedometer works but is off about 5 to 10 mph due to the 18 inch wheels. The car does have factory air but is not getting cold at this time but I am going to take it to my mechanic and have it looked at. The shifter is a factory slap stick and works as it should. I don’t have a spare tire for the car but you can get one at a scrap yard pretty cheap and the jack is gone too.

This is a list below of what I put on the car and what I was told     

• Rebuilt 340 Engine
• 727 Torque Flight Transmission
• 8 3/4 Rear End  
• New Paint  Job
• Flow Master Exhaust
• New Edelbrock  600 Carb
• 18 Inch Torque Thrust D Rims
• 18 Inch Nitto ntrd1 Redline Tires
• New Starter
• New Weatherstriping
• New Window Wiskers
• New Battery

I lowered the car 2 inches to give it the right stance. The car runs and drives real nice but is a little rougher  riding than usual with the low profile tires but still fun. If you have always wanted or wanting another cuda you will like this one. People always say while in their classic cars they gets lots of attention … well wait untill you drive this. I have seen people almost crash their cars looking at the Cuda and when pulling into car shows everyone flocks around the car. I am sure there is a lot of things in the description i am leaving out but it is all i can think of at this time. The car is really nice but not Barrett Jackson quality but not $75,000 either. I have described the car to the best of my ability. The car is 41 years old and is being sold in as is condition with no warranty or implied. All shipping arrangements will be made and paid for by the buyer.
