For sale is an awesome 1970 Plymouth Barracuda AAR for sale in our Louisville KY showroom. Found in a field, this original AAR Cuda has been painstakingly brought back to life. When the Cuda was 1st found rusting away in the field it was thought this would be a nice little project. 10 years later, after working weekends and holidays on the Cuda, the fruits of the owner’s labor have paid off. Before the rotisserie nut & bolt restoration could even begin, the Cuda had to be stabilized, so it would not break apart. The restoration pics indicate that the floor pans and trunk pans were cut out and replaced with factory original pieces. The sub-frames were also repaired. Once this pre-restoration was completed, then the rotisserie restoration began. As pieces were taken off, notes and pictures were taken, so that everything could be put back to factory original. This includes paint daubs on parts, numbers stenciled on the transmission and even to the original 2 valve stem spare tire. All the sheet metal was then completely stripped and any remaining rust was removed with new metal put in its place. The roof seam to body seam was leaded in to make one nice flowing piece, just as it would have been done from the factory. Once the metal was completed, a Glasurit paint system was used to cover the Cuda in the beautiful red finish. Glasurit is considered by some to be the best possible paint to use and typically found on higher end European vehicles. Since the AAR Cuda was missing its original 340 Six-pack V8 engine. The owner took considerable time to find the correct block and heads to go back in the Cuda. The 340 V8 is period correct, but the internals have been upgraded with H-beam rods, forged pistons, a forged crankshaft and a bigger cam to give this Cuda more horsepower with better reliability. After completion of the paint and the rebuild of the engine, then came time to put it all back together. This is where all the notes and pictures come in handy. After all, with a 10 year build, a guy could forget where something goes. This 1970 Plymouth Barracuda AAR has been de-coded by Galen Govier and is listed in the Chrysler Registry. This Cuda has also been appraised Kentucky Car Appraisals.
