Car Spot: 1969 Plymouth GTX

Plymouth Barracuda: They were going to name it what?
It could have been named something else From the what were they thinking category. Plymouth's executives had wanted to name the car Panda, an idea that was unpopular with the car's designers. Well duh, you think? In the end however the person who came up with the name was locked in a closet or ????... Continue Reading →
