Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Orlando is proud to offer this 1965 Plymouth Barracuda! Often overlooked and regularly forgotten, the first gen Barracuda beat the Mustang to the market by nearly two weeks. As the first "pony" car, it was based of the Plymouth Valiant and intended to be a affordable sporty car for the booming youth market. This red 1964 Barracuda is a cool example of the breed and packs an unexpected punch under the hood. With this Barracuda the star of the show is the 360ci V8 under the hood. It has a crazy custom header set up, reminiscent of 1960s Super Stock cars. Behind that engine is a four-speed manual transmission. The 1964 Barracuda never cam with an engine this big. Maybe because the big V8 yanks this car around with ease. In case the exhaust noise doesn't turn heads, the bright red rust-free body is guaranteed to get attention. The interior is finished in red vinyl and the front and rear buckets look awesome. The car rides on red steelies with dog dish hub caps - a great look for an old school street-fighter. It's hard to find clean solid early Barracudas these days. Come snath this one up before it's gone!
