We're not worthy!
OK, we are.
This is a true AAR 'Cuda.
Mopar's Holy Grail.
We did a bit of cosmetic work on the front spoiler and rear.
Also just a bit of mechanical - fluids, etc.
The car is pristine!
The 1970 Plymouth AAR ‘Cuda was a limited-production, race-inspired version of the ‘Cuda, built to homologate the car for Trans-Am racing. "AAR" stands for All American Racers, the Dan Gurney-led team that campaigned the Barracuda in the SCCA Trans-Am series.
What Makes the AAR ‘Cuda Special?
The Engine Instead of the usual big-block monsters, the AAR ‘Cuda was equipped with a 340 cubic inch (5.6L) V8, but this wasn’t just any small-block: 340ci "Six Barrel" V8 Rated at 290 horsepower (but likely underrated—real output was closer to 320-350 hp) Triple two-barrel carburetors on an Edelbrock aluminum intake Special high-lift camshaft and free-flowing heads This setup gave it great high-RPM performance, perfect for road racing.
The Exhaust & Suspension Unique side-exit exhaust pipes in front of the rear wheels—aggressive both in looks and sound.
Fast-ratio steering and upgraded suspension for better handling, unlike the drag-focused big-block ‘Cudas.
