Living with a 1970 Barracuda Classic Car and Losing the Inheritance While Blowing a Lot of Gas

I've had too much fun to mention :).
Willie and I have depended on our 1970 Barracuda now for I think eleven years. For that length of time we've been very happy with the car. Our condo is in northern Michigan, near Saint Ignace, and we love driving in the car during the fall months. My opinion is I'd say it's an excellent toy for the money.

Almost from the minute we received the Barracuda we've been on the road. My whole family made a weekend out of visiting my husband's relatives in New Hampshire numerous times with no problems whatsoever. The Barracuda does poorly on gas and has not given us alot issues in terms of maintenance.

The Barracuda is in excellent condition, having been restored in the last two years. The previous owners seem to have taken excellent care of the car over the past 19 years. Our previous car, a Buick, had plenty of breakdowns and we weren't sad to get rid of it.

It was important to insure the vehicle. For our muscle car insurance we went with a company called Classic Collectors Insurance. We signed up for the policy completely online, using their excellent web site. We found the company by reviewing the information on old cars. It's a great web site for finding the best price on antique car insurance. We insured the Barracuda for 50% of what Prudential wanted.

The muscle car insurance was just in time because within a month of getting it we were involved in a horrible accident with a Saab. The accident totalled both cars. Our Classic Collectors Insurance insurance agent got ahold of us and let us know the car would be covered! It was a relief because of our attachment to the car.

The value of the car has gone up a lot over the past two years to our surprise. It's hard to believe we paid $13,000 for the car back in the late ninties. Now it's worth at least $35,000! We've been offered this much several times this year. My wife is very excited!

Go out and find that special classic car Go out and don't hesitate, there's a world of cheap Barracudas out there. Buy a Barracuda now before the price goes up! You won't be sorry.
