Description of 1970 Plymouth Barracuda Ultra Rare Burnt Orange |
Here's a beautiful 1970 Barracuda, 440 ci, with RARE "Deep Burnt Orange Metallic" exterior (code-FK5), and original (numbers matching) Burnt Orange/Black Hounds Tooth interior (code-PK54) "combo," with the highly sought after, date correct "6 Pack"!!! The Six Pack gave Plymouth newly minted firepower for the muscle-car wars. After the Holley three 2-barrel layout arrived on selected 440 CI Road Runners in 1969, it was made available on all high-performance 440 models in the line in 1970. That included the car offered here, the restyled E-body Cuda, which took the brand to a whole new level of excitement for hot-car enthusiasts. Indeed, many vehicles of this design built during an all-too-short production run are now lost to history, and this remaining example is a STUNNING ("more refined Grand Coupe") 'Cuda! Painted in the Deep Burnt Orange Metallic with NEW black vinyl top and matched black hockey stripes, it also features a Burnt Orange interior with deluxe black "hounds tooth" inserts, rarely optioned in any E-body! Under the hood is Chrysler’s big lung—the 440 ci "Super Commando" engine complete with date-coded 1970 carburetors (3x 2 barrels), mildly upgraded for street performance and featuring dual exhaust with factory-design rear valance-exit chrome tips. No column shift here; rather, the short-throw Hurst Pistol Grip emerges from the optional center console, connected to a (code-A833) 4-speed transmission. Handling is assisted by power steering and power brakes, while creature comfort includes factory-design A/C. There is the optional trunk-mount luggage rack, wide sill moldings, body-color dual side mirrors and ("Cuda 440-6 Pack") power bulge hood to complete an aggressive outside appearance. The interior showcases a Rallye dash, center console with lidded compartment, tinted glass and nostalgic (original) AM radio. Finally, stylish Rallye wheels and Firehawk radial tires touch ground in all four corners for an enjoyable driving experience. The first-year Six Pack Cuda created its own legacy and value back in the day. This car, with its extensive list of "optional" equipment and exceptional appearance, will carry that tradition forward in your collection. OH, and bye the way, this '70 Cuda' RUNS LIKE A FRIGGIN' BEAST (runs/drives great)!!! Not exactly a "grocery-getter", but you'll have fun driving to car shows and road trippin'....Any questions, please call Bill at 303-885-8692.
