Plymouth Barracuda (1965) for Sale in IL

This 1965 Plymouth Barracuda is a classic first-generation fastback finished in Dark Blue with a restored teal vinyl interior. Its signature huge rear tinted window remains in excellent condition, and the dash features the classic wood-grain spoke steering wheel and tachometer, capturing the iconic ’60s Barracuda look. The cabin blends period-correct details with subtle modern touches for performance monitoring. Under the hood sits a 225ci Slant Six engine, fitted with an Offenhauser 4-barrel intake, Holley carburetor, performance cam, and MSD ignition, producing a strong, reliable drive. Power is routed through a 3-speed automatic transmission, and the exhaust flows through a split tube header with cutouts. The chassis includes factory manual steering, 4-wheel drum brakes, twin-torsion bar front suspension, and rear leaf springs. Period-correct 15” American Racing 5-spoke chrome alloys with Futura radials complete the look. This first-generation Barracuda is a solid, stylish example of classic Mopar performance and design.
