1970 Plymouth Barracuda Hemi Muscle Car
1970 Plymouth Hemi Cuda
In 1970 Plymouth gave the Barracuda a complete make over. The all new 1970 Plymouth Hemi Cuda was available in Coupe and Convertible models. The all-new model was styled by John E. Herlitz. The 440- and Hemi-equipped cars received upgraded suspension components and structural reinforcements to help transfer the power to the road. Other Barracuda options included decal sets, hood modifications, and some unusual "high impact" colors such as "Vitamin C", "In-Violet", and "Moulin Rouge". In 1970, the shaker hood and the Spicer-built Dana 60 rear axle were available.

History of the Plymouth Hemi Cuda
The Plymouth Barracuda is a 2-door car that was manufactured by the Plymouth division of the Chrysler Corporation from 1964 through 1974.
The first-generation Barracuda, a fastback A-body coupé based on the Plymouth Valiant, had a distinctive wraparound back glass and was available from 1964 to 1966.
The second-generation 1967 - 1969 Barracuda, though still Valiant-based, was heavily redesigned. Second-generation A-body cars were available in fastback, notchback, and convertible versions.
The 1970 - 1974 E-body Barracuda, no longer Valiant-based, was available as a coupé and a convertible, both of which were very different from the previous models.
The redesign for the 1970 Barracuda
1970 Plymouth Hemi Cuda
The redesign for the 1970 Plymouth Hemi Cuda removed all its previous commonality with the Valiant. The original fastback design was deleted from the line and the Barracuda now consisted of coupe and convertible models. The all-new model, styled by John E. Herlitz, was built on a shorter, wider version of Chrysler's existing B platform, called the E-body. Sharing this platform was also the newly launched Dodge Challenger; however, no sheet metal interchanged between the two cars, and the Challenger had a 2-inch (51 mm) longer wheelbase.
The E-body Barracuda was now "able to shake the stigma of 'economy car'." Three versions were offered: the base Barracuda (BH), the luxury oriented Gran Coupe (BP), and the sport model 'Cuda (BS). The high-performance models were marketed as 'Cuda deriving from the 1969 option. The E-body's engine bay was larger than that of the previous A-body, facilitating the release of Chrysler's 426 cu in (7 L) Hemi for the regular retail market.

- Had a LOT of fun in one of these! People were crazy about them the first day they came out, and they never really lost their appeal, have they? Too bad the Big Three changed so much and didn't give people what they wanted after the 'golden age' of cars! 5* favorites, lensroll, the works!
