Don Grotheer's 1969 Winternats winning Super Stock Barracuda is going to auction, as rare as these are you better not pass up this chance to own it, they don't come to auction often

Campaigned by NHRA legend Don Grotheer who drove this car to win the 1969 Winternationals at Pomona, California.

A period correct 426 cid Hemi V8 powers this beast, topped off by cross-ram, dual Holley carbs. It rides on a set of original Keystone mags, supplied for the restoration by Grotheer. Only the bare necessities are found inside the car, black vinyl seats, no back-seats or radio or heater, and a proper Stewart-Warner tach.

it's rare that a car gets an engine transplanted from an older car to make it faster... it's also rare that anyone has an 'Cuda, or a 426 Max Wedge. Now, add the rare factor of owning that same car for 43 years

You simply do not hear of Ford and General Motors guys swapping in a motor that’s 10 years older than their car. Why? Because they don’t have anything in the arsenal that can hold a candle to the mighty Max Wedge. Ever heard of a guy putting a 409 in a Camaro and making it faster than it was stock? Exactly.

This started life as a 383 4 spd 'Cuda, and upgrading to a 426 Max Wedge was a no brainer when the Pro Street craze came along. Along with a stout 727 and a 4 thou converter, the change over was thorough, from blah to beast, and a narrowed Dana 60 was added for dependability. Tubs and rollcage complete the raceability, and it's been high 10s in the quarter mile for 3 decades

hell... I thought that was rare and significant that a Barracuda was racing in the bigs, nope. There were over 2 dozen 66 Cudas racing at Daytona, Sebring, and other tracks like Mid America http://www.racingsportscars.com/type/archive/Plymouth/Barracuda.html
