1965 Plymouth Barracuda by Karen Guthrie

Submitted via 440'S PlymouthBarracuda.net

Our Barracuda was purchased in Dec 1983. It is light blue with blue int. It has 273 cu in 8 cyl with auto trans. When we first got it, it was in poor condition. It was originally from Tennessee and had a lot of corrosion. We replaced all the front suspension parts over the years. Also, rebuilt eng in Mar. of '84. When we got it, it had 78000 miles on it. It now has about 179000 miles on it. We recently had all the cancer cut out and new quarter panels installed. It really looks good now. My son bought a set of '65 era "mag" wheels to set it off. It also has a really nice sound system. It includes a 800 watt amp that really pumps out the thump. I also have a big decal of "Tazzy" the Tasmanian Devil, on the back window. My son also had all new bumpers put on and all other chrome pieces replaced.
