The seller later replaced the powertrain with a 392ci Hemi V8 crate engine and a Passon Performance A833 four-speed manual transmission. The car is finished in blue over a reupholstered black interior, and additional modifications installed under current ownership include Wilwood disc brakes, staggered-width 18″ US Mags wheels, Hotchkis suspension components, an exhaust H-pipe and Dr. Gas Boom Tube dual side-exit exhaust, an aftermarket audio system, and sound insulation. This modified Barracuda is now offered with build records from current and previous ownership, refurbishment photos, and a clean Colorado title in the seller’s name.The car was repainted in Blue Fire Metallic (B5) under prior ownership during the 2013 refurbishment, and white AAR-style strobe stripes were added to the sides along with a black fiberglass hood, ’Cuda badging, and black front and rear spoilers. An AAR-style shield decal with custom “Hemi 392” lettering was subsequently added under current ownership. The seller notes rock chips in the finish, wear around the hood pins, and a crack in the rear spoiler; close-up photos of exterior blemishes and glass scratches can be viewed in the gallery below.
Staggered-width 18″ US Mags wheels are wrapped in Hankook Ventus V12 tires measuring 245/45 up front and 275/40 at the rear. The seller modified the suspension with Hotchkis Sport Suspension components including shocks, subframe connectors, enlarged torsion bars, and front and rear sway bars. Wilwood hydraulic disc brakes all around utilize slotted and drilled rotors, with six-piston front and four-piston rear calipers. The seller installed Fat Mat sound insulation below the carpeting and door panels and added a Pioneer head unit with Bluetooth compatibility, a Hifonics amplifier, and a Kicker subwoofer. A Hurst shifter was installed along with the Passon Performance transmission installation performed in 2017 by Pro Tech Auto of Aurora. The seller notes scratches on the inner passenger-door panel and states that the horns and the windshield-washer pump are not wired. A steering wheel with a polished Barracuda horn button fronts a 120-mph speedometer and auxiliary gauges.
