1967 383 ~ "Which Came First" ~ The Barracuda or Dart GTS

Nice story - seems to support that the 383 A's didn't roll out for production until March or so.

I totally agree with that.


The purpose of my post is to try to show that the production was planned well before the actual production dates.

With the lead time required to compile, edit and print the Dodge Data Book and with the date of November 25,1967 on the Comparison page of the book.

It would be safe to say that Dodge had plans to produce the 383 Darts well before that date.

I think it would be safe to "ASSUME" that both Plymouth and Dodge had the 383 option planned for both the Barracuda and the Dart.
