****SOLD*** 1970 Plymouth AAR 'Cuda -100% Documented and Restored -Rare "In Violet" Color

This 1970 Plymouth AAR 'Cuda is a true high quality find for the discriminating collector. Meticulously restored to its original glory and accompanied by full documentation, and having fewer than 10 (ten) miles since the two-year plus restoration was completed, the condition is better than new. After the restoration was completed, it was stored in a climate controlled facility in a hermetically sealed storage bag for the best protection of its current condition. The restoration is supported with receipts, photos and video. This AAR 'Cuda features a very high level of options and the incredibly rare "In Violet" metallic paint (commonly referred to as “Plum Crazy”) accounting for just 7.4% of the production run. The original Factory Build Sheets are included, and this one is well sorted and ready for display and judging at the highest level shows in the country. This car was featured in the 2022 Detroit Autorama (photo attached).

The VIN, BS23JOB287534, provides documented insight into the car's origin and specifications. It reveals that it is a Plymouth Barracuda AAR 'Cuda with a 340 cubic inch TA Engine, 290 horsepower 3-2BBL (“Six Pack”) 8-cylinder engine, paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. The assembly took place at the Dodge Main plant in Hamtramck, MI, USA on March 24, 1970. The sequence number indicates that it is the 187,534th vehicle produced. The total number of the AAR production was just 2,724- of those, it is believed to be one of 202 in the highly sought after color of In Violet, and of course, a much smaller number in this documented, high option level at the time of production with a stock 4-speed manual transmission.

The engine was meticulously handbuilt by Mo-Par specialist Rich Koffel of Koffel's Place in Walled Lake, Michigan producing an eye-popping 385 horse power as shown on the attached Dyno Sheet.
