1969 Barracuda 'Options'

4spdragtop,

I've had a bunch of 69' Barracuda's, and I'm still trying to figure this one out.

You could order the 69' 340 with a Formula S package with the horizontal striping, but mark off the Code #V78 (delete stripe).

The front fender emblem ''Barracuda 340-S' was used for both the Code #E55 (340 engine option) and Code #A56 (340 Formula S option).

When you ordered the Formula-S sport stripe V6_ , the accent stripe V7_ was automatically deleted, no V78 on the fender tag. The stripes would go over the top of each other.
When you got the Sport Stripe V6_ , the 340-s or 383-s emblem wasn't put on the fenders, nor was the fish emblem. You got JUST the "Barracuda" script emblem.
When you ordered a 'cuda package A13, A56, A57 there is the V78(accent stripe delete) on the fender tag. Likely because the accent stripe could still go on the car without interfering with the 'cuda striping.

This is a V6R (sport stripe-RED) car, NO fish or 383-S emblems on the fenders.
