Lot #707.1 - This 1968 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S with 55,055 original miles was the combination of a powerful V8, lightweight and cool fastback styling. Nicely restored with the numbers-matching 383ci V8 and automatic transmission. The factory PP1 Matador Red paint looks fantastic. Because this was a modern restoration, it has the radiance of a modern clearcoat finish. Plus, those mirror-like chrome bumpers add to the bright personality. Panel gaps are excellent, which means the doors close with the unique classic Chrysler authority. It has features such as the aggressive full-length Formula S stripe, 383 callouts on the hood trim, and even the retro appearance of the standard Plymouth hubcaps with color-matching red steelies. Inside the red and white interior is both premium and sporty. Bucket seats, bright center console and even the rear seats fold flat for utility. The door panels look terrific and offer a hint of wood trim for a very period-correct premium feeling. A classic steering wheel and beyond that is a full round gauge panel, including a tach in the center. It all has a great retro cool feeling right down to the AM radio that's still cranking out tunes. 1968 is the introduction of the 383 cubic-inch V8 to the Barracuda. The big V8 inhales deeply with correct-four-barrel carburetor. It shifts smoothly on its way to feeding the limited-slip rear end.
