A warm thank you to America’s veterans. This pic of a 1972 Plymouth Barracuda was taken at the Clovis Veterans Memorial in Clovis, California on 11-11-11. Via CarDomain

Second Generation Barracuda Fastback in the Weeds
Cars In Barns recently added this picture of a Barracuda needing some attention on their Facebook page. It kinda makes a person weak. I don’t see any side marker lights so maybe a ’67?

Check out this badass ’70 ‘Cuda that the folks at Dr. Mopar’s High Performance are building for Chance Barden. Chris “Doc” Ketteman, owner of Dr. Mopar’s High Performance in Burlington, North Carolina writes:
The vehicle has a 6.1 Hemi with upgraded camshaft, custom Moser 8.75 housing, Ride Tech Air Ride Suspension, Painless wiring, Wilwood 4 wheel Disc brakes, Champion Aluminum Radiator, Bouchillon front p/s alternator serpentine accessory kit, TTI Exhaust headers with cutouts. Will be using 10 w 30 Cam2 Blue Blood Racing Oil and Baldwin Oil Filter for lubrication. We are an “Authorized dealer of Cam2 Racing Oil”. The paint is flat black on hood/decklid, with a color mix close to driftwood beige metallic on the rest of the body. Chance also incorporated a built in spoiler on the body/decklid. Currently we are finishing wiring in the vehicle, and will be running 6AN fuel lines/fittings with push lock ends, getting the vehicle ready to crank and to the dyno. Any computer programming will be via a Diablosport Tuner. Dr. Mopar’s High Performance
1970 Plymouth Barracuda Barn Find on eBay
Check out this Barracuda barn find! The ‘Cuda was last on the road in 1976 with the Pennsylvania Bicentennial license plate to prove it! Originally a 383 pistol grip 4-speed car, although it no longer has its numbers matching engine. It’s a B3 blue car with matching interior. Mileage is indicated to be 64,403. The owner has started the restoration with the professional installation of some AMD sheet metal, but has decided to sell. He seems to give a fairly detailed description of the car listing both good points and bad. Bidding currently sits at $11,000 with the reserve not met. Worth it? Find it here on eBay. More pictures after the jump!
Four Hemi Under Glass Barracudas Headed To Auction
Handful of Mopars at York US 30 Reunion
Ford was the featured manufacturer at this year’s York US 30 Reunion, but that didn’t stop a few Mopars from crashing the party. I have a few more B-bodies plus a very cool Sox and Martin Barracuda after the jump, but be sure to check out the full story and gallery over at BangShift.
Movie Mopar of the Week: 1971 Plymouth Barracuda Convertible from The Brady Bunch
This week’s movie Mopar is the 1971 Plymouth Barracuda convertible from the Brady Bunch. It’s a plain jain B5 318 automatic car, but of course any 1971 Barracuda convertible is cool cause they made so few of them–just 722 in total. I had a hard time finding any clips with the Barracuda on YouTube, but I did manage to find one where Greg is at a drive-in with a date, only to have Bobby screw it up (along with the Barracuda’s convertible top). Check it out after the jump! Pic via IMCDB
Sox and Martin Collector Series Hemi ‘Cuda
This photo shoot was done back in 2010 to promote the Sox and Martin Collector Series Hemi Cuda built by Mr. Norm’s Garage in conjunction with Diane Sox, but it is so ridiculously awesome I’m dropping it here. That ’68 S S&M Hemi Barracuda is amazing. More pics after the jump! Via Autoblog
A-Bodies at the 2013 Mopars Unlimited Spring Roundup
There was a pretty diverse group of A-bodies this year, including this super cool 1966 Dart Trams Am race car. Lots more A-body goodness after the jump, including video!
Old Mopars in the 24 Hours of Lemons
Should the 24 Hours of Lemons be limited to 80s and 90s crapboxes? We think not. Old Mopars can be competitive and a hell of a lot cooler than a junk Nissan or Toyota. Just check out this 4-speed Slant 6 ’64 Barracuda out of Olympia, Washington. Other Mopars competing in the 24 Hours of Lemons across the country include a ’72 Coronet in Texas, a ’65 Barracuda in Florida, a ’64 Dart on the East Coast, and a ’74 Duster and ’72 Scamp in California.
