Just how quick were the 273 Commando's in the Quarter-Mile.

1967 Barracuda 'Fastback' 273 Commando w/3.23 Gears 'Sure-Grip'

My mother started running her's back in 1967.

It was equipped with 'Performance Group'. It had the 'horrible' Inland Shifter
with the center 'Console'.

Bone Stock with no special anything, she was hitting 16.30's. @ 83.0 MPH

After a few minor adjustments, she was down to a best of 16.16 in 1967

She 'earned' several Class Trophy's in F/PS "Pure Stock', and
easily put away the Mustang's with the 289/225 HP.

The toughest competition was from other Mopar 273 4-Barrels.
