1968 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S.

Mopar Power

• Engine: Original numbers-matching 340 Magnum, breathing through a NOS Formula S dual exhaust system.
• Transmission: Also original: The console-shifted 727 Torqueflite.
• Rearend: Also also original: The 3.23-geared 8-3/4- with Sure Grip.

Sure Grip

• Suspension: Restored original ‘68 Barracuda Formula S: (Front) Heavy-duty longitudinal torsion bars and tubular shocks with an anti-sway bar. (Rear) Heavy-duty leaf springs with tubular shocks.

• Brakes: Restored original power-assisted front disc/rear drum.
• Wheels and Tires: Original 14 x 5 1/2-inch steel wheels wear their OEM wire wheel covers and a set of P205/75R14 Coker Classic radials that look just like the factory’s red stripe bias-plies.

High Impact

• Body: Original ‘68 Plymouth Barracuda fastback unibody needed the right-side door replaced, but no other sheetmetal surgery. Body work and paint prep by George Santimeyer, Scottdale, Pennsylvania.

• Paint: The same shade that went on in 1968: MM1 Turbine Bronze, sprayed on in basecoat/clearcoat form by George Santimeyer.
• Interior: The OEM pearl white bucket seat interior was restored, thanks to Alice Kelly, Scottdale, Pennsylvania.
