Question...does anybody have a picture of the rear of these Cars? My question is did these cars originally have the "Barracuda" emblem on the deck lid??
Thanks for your time. Troy

From what I understand, the very first article written about these cars...

One thing to be noticed though... there are no hood pins. I think I have heard the explanation, but there are others who know this better...
 
Never saw one without hood pins, although I supposed it's possible as some were shipped without the front fiberglass on them due to supply issues.

yes, apparently this photo is taken in March of ´68
 
If any of you are up for an interesting read, I've attached a PDF magazine article about my Cousin who has owned the Hairbender (B029 car # 59 on the list). It's a good read!

I would certainly be interested.....
 
I would like to dedicate this forum to 69 Cuda 440 (Paul Ceasrine). He wanted this so bad and was excited for it. He wanted to empty his head here. He was pushing me to get this forum up and asking me how it was going. Well Paul we got it! RIP Paul
