well, you've asked a difficult question. this car was likely ordered as a nice "comfortable driver" when it was new. it has a 318 with air and power steering and column shift auto. the buyer/dealership also ordered the deluxe interior option with the optional headrests. this would have been a nice "sporty" car when new but still a "family" car that was practical. if it were restored, it would probably have a value in the mid-$20's. however, based upon what i've seen in the mopar market right now, i'm not sure there would be a lot of demand for an "average" 1969 Barracuda like this one. i did get a good PA title with the car.
obviously, as many of these cars need to be saved from the crusher as possible. so even if i don't try to restore this car, it will be preserved. my other Barracuda's are more in demand right now being all 4 speeds and Formula S cars with some interesting options. my priority is to restore all those cars so using this "mom's car" to fix the other ones seems to be the right decision to me.
