Nice looking solid project originally equipped with the Slant Six according to the 'c' in the 5th digit of the VIN. Currently a 440/4-sp with 8.75" rear.

Bidding is close to $30k already, but these cars have always been fairly rare to find in solid condition, at least as long as I've been able to drive....

Willing to sell without the engine/trans, but most likely, more than it is really worth because of the condition and a heck of a bid already.
From what little I know of these cars, I didn't think a person can just "drop in" a V8 on the 6 cylinder cradle. I've always heard they were different ?
The closet Mopar in me is wanting that for a 340 driver...:shocked:

Even though I'm a die hard GM (and Camaro guy), these Barracudas are the best looking muscle car ever built.

Ordered a '72 new, sold in '75 after I bought my first house. Would like another another.

E24 = 225 -1bbl 6cyl coupled to D13 = 3spd manual floor shift.

But an interesting thing is the VON (Vehicle Order Number) starting with “M”. That denotes the car was a Sales Bank (Y16) order. Early cars with the M were Sales Bank / Show car. The early ones would have been used for some promotional purpose and then sold as a used car after its intended engaement was done. For what? Not sure, but maybe to show what the base/base no frills cars were ordered with.

Bare bones for sure based on that tag. Nothing but bucket seats, drip rail molding, and emissions controls.

This needs a 6.4L crate swap…ahem…..STEVE!!
