After finding this Dave Wren Barracuda on eBay, and searching for more info online, it appears that the same car has been for sale many times over the years and often with the same description. it was on Carslist.co for $295,000, on CarPictures.com in 2008, and sold in June 2012 for $51,065 per CollectorCarPriceTracker.com (it’s possible that sale fell through.) A very cool car but not a lot of takers. See the auction at eBay! More pics after the jump.
