For sale is my 1969 Barracuda, it still has at least 90% of its original paint. The car was first sold by Hacienda Chrysler Plymouth Inc. in California. In 1986 the car was exported to Canada and in 2019, I imported the car back to the USA. Over the last year, I brought it really close to its original condition. The engine is year and date correct, was professionally rebuilt by Kammer&Kammer Racing in Dayton/Ohio, and has less than 1000 miles on it. I also rebuild/renewed the 904 transmission, suspension and drivetrain. The quarter panels are original and "rust-free", so is the floor pan, and are the front fenders. The only part I know of that has been repainted, is the passenger door, but that was 50 years ago. The car is intended and can be used for trips. I wanted to build a “reliable” classic car, as close as possible to original and that is what I am offering here. There are no fluid leaks, no vibrations, or other issues, typically found on classic cars. The car has a clear Ohio title and is registered under my name, and insured through Hagerty Classic Car Insurance with a guaranteed value of $37.000.

What needs to be done:
-Scratches and dents (showing the age of the car)
-radio and speaker are not connected
-new AC hoses to hook up the rebuilt compressor to the original AC Heater box (currently working on restoring the AC hoses and lines)
So far, I spent in total 39.313$ on the car but also sold some of the big block parts. I do not need to sell, but in the last weeks I started to lose enthusiasm and the desire for a change came to my mind. It might be my winter depression, but I experienced the same feelings after finishing an 8-year nut and bolt restoration. I know that I won’t find a 69 Barracuda in this condition anymore, but my motivation is gone. I will keep the option to reverse my decision, but at the moment I am ready to let go.
Everything above is just a small summary of all the work that has been done to the car. If seriously interested, take your time, sit down, and read my restoration thread here on FABO. It should answer almost every open question:
