1970 Plymouth AAR ‘Cuda

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

The 1970 Plymouth AAR ‘Cuda, Plymouth’s factory built race car. Has there ever been a more in-your-face vehicle built in North America? Three carburetors, fiberglass hood and spoiler, side exit exhaust and eye popping graphics make the Plymouth AAR ‘Cuda one car that’s impossible to ignore.

The redesign for the 1970 Barracuda removed all its previous commonality with the Valiant. The original fastback design was deleted from the line and the Barracuda now consisted of coupe and convertible models. The all-new model, styled by John E. Herlitz, was built on a shorter, wider version of Chrysler’s existing B platform, called the E-body.

Swede Savage and Dan Gurney raced identical factory-sponsored AAR (All American Racers) ‘Cudas in the 1970 Trans-Am Series. The cars qualified for three pole positions but did not win any Trans-Am races; the highest finish was 2nd at Road America. A street version of the AAR ‘Cuda was produced, powered by the 340 cu in 5.6 L “six pack” three two-barrel carburetors engine.

Gorgeous Example 1970 Plymouth AAR Cuda 2 Door Hardtop. Powered by a 340 cu in “six pack” 290HP V8 AAR engine with serial number 0B283690. The correct cowl number, rad support, and tag are present. Vehicle is fitted with a factory A-727 TorqueFlite Automatic Transmission. Also fitted with Pwr. brakes and 15″ Rally Wheels with Goodyear Eagle ST Tires. The exterior is an eye catching Plum Crazy, with a fiberglass Flat Black Hood, rear Spoiler and all the correct decals and emblems. The black vinyl Interior also shows really well. Solid example, great investment value. A True American Muscle Car!
