1970 Plymouth Baracuda Drag Car

Serial Number: tbd Logbooks: tbd Condition: Very Good Price: $25,000 CAD, Offers Location: Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Description The 'Cuda is a purpose built drag racecar. The Cuda was completed 3 years ago and has been driven but was raced only once. The Cuda is only 2.5" off the ground, the NHRA minimum & stands only 45" at the roof. The car could be pro streeted as the rear suspension is easily raised and the front requires minor modification but I have not completed brake, turn signal and headlight wiring. There is also only 1 plastic seat in the car at this time. The Cuda can also be seen in the May 98 issue of HIGH PERFORMANCE MOPAR page 67 at top of the page and on page 66 at lower left of overview between a blue and a green cuda if you have a magnifier. The engine is optional, the owner preferring to sell the Cuda rolling wiihout the iron hemi box and engine but if it aids the sale he would consider selling them.
