Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Orlando is proud to present this beautiful 1974 Plymouth Barracuda. In the early 70s the muscle car world was under attack by crackdowns from the EPA and the insurance industry. While the regulators put on the pressure, good ole Mopar pressed on as long as they could with high output cars like this Cuda. This last year Barracuda is handsomely dressed in a candy apple red paint, stylish hood scoops, sporty spoiler and side pipes. The interior is all muscle car with it's front bucket seats flanking a center console with slapstick shifter. Under the hood is just what the doctor ordered, a big old fashioned 440 V8 with a 4 barrel carb. Paired with it's 3 speed automatic imagine how this Barracuda can get up and go! Under the same ownership wince 1998 this Cuda has been well loved and is ready for its new home. If you're looking for a sweet example of the last of the muscle cars this is the one you want to own!
