Deus Ex Machina Modding A 1966 Plymouth Barracuda

deus66baracudaYou know Deus Ex Machina for their custom motorcycles. From a 2-wheeler to a 4wheeler the difference is the size of modding you need to accomplish. Built and owned by Matt Hart, a guy who grew up with Mopar music ringing in his hears, this 1966 Plymouth Barracuda got 480 hp on a 4-speed manual tranny. Ready to race? Mot exactly because it wears semi sleek tires to be road friendly. Love the blacked out rims and the leather hood straps. In the video below, see it getting ready for setting off car alarms.

    Like. Not loud enough.

    I love the RestoMods that people are doing today. IMHO there’s nothing like an older vehicle that’s been tastefully updated with more modern technology…same goes for bikes.

    I’m not real sure about the leather hood restraints, but do remember some of the really old vintage stuff having them…although the hoods opened to the side instead of from the front.

    Agree with Bruno…needs to have way more sound.

    We had a 65 Barracuda when I was a kid, but it had a Slant Six and torqueflite tranny. Couldn’t understand why my Dad didn’t get the 273. Still it was a good car.
