Chrysler "Build Sheets"

Chrysler "Build Sheets"

I have a partially fragmented build sheet for my 67 Barracuda. It was also ordered with heavy duty suspension with sway bar "deleted". It was not a Formula S, but it had a 273 Commando V8 and disk brakes, also manual steering, manual brakes, bench seat and column shift auto. It was a built-to-order car.

Hi Fred...nice looking early Barracuda. I see you live in Clifton, VA., which is not far from where I live in Front Royal, VA. I own a couple of early Barracudas too.

I looked at the build sheet for your car and found a couple of interesting things that you may or may not have known.

Your car was built/ordered with: ("000" means found on build sheet)

Heavy Duty torsion bars-- "892" and "893" on buildsheet (same as Formula S)
Heavy Duty rear springs-- "804"

I find it interesting that your car had Heavy Duty bars/springs but did not have a "368" Rallye or HD suspension package.
Your car was built without a sway bar and came with standard duty F&R shocks. "45/00".

Seems kinda odd, but in 66, a person could order a new car with most anything you wanted.
