1969 440 'cuda ~ Original Road Test

YY1

Not quite sure what Mopar's plan was, other than to just get them out there
in mid-1969.

Model ...........................Production ...... Shipping Weight

1969 GTS 440 Dart......... ..... 640 ............... #3229 lbs.
1969 440 'cuda 'Fastback' ..... 299 ............... #3279 lbs.
1969 440 'cuda 'Notchback' .... 45 ............... #3204 lbs.

The difference in weight of the 3 vehicles is all located over the rear wheels. All fastback Barracudas, no matter what year, have a traction advantage over the same model year Darts and notchback Barracudas.
