Artifact Overview

This 1969 sales brochure showcased the Plymouth Barracuda. The Barracuda was a "pony car" -- a small, sporty four-seater with a big engine. The term "pony car" originated with the successful Ford Mustang. Interestingly the original Barracuda was introduced in 1964 just weeks before the "pony car" namesake.
