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

From what I can remember.

The first things that my mother put on her 1967 Barracuda for the 1968 campaign.

* Hooker Headers 'Fenderwell'
* Goodyear Slicks {7" Wide x 26" Tall}
* Cragar S/S Wheels {14" x 6"} all the way around
* Pinion Snubber
* 4.56 Gears
* Hurst Competition/Plus Shifter {She had to remove the 'center' Console}
* Stewart-Warner Tachometer
* Performance Curve {Locked-Up} Distributor
* 'Belden' Ignition Wires

I remember, we got the Goodyear Slicks {used} from the Centolanza Brothers in
Highland, New York.

And how about this for a price. She got the 4.56 Gears, complete and
in a '742' Case from Gratiot Auto Supply.

1968 Cost ..... $165.00

The Barracuda was now classed in J/Stock.

Still, with 'nothing' done to the Engine or Clutch Set-Up, she was down to
... 15.15's @ 92 MPH

Not Too Shabby For A Daily Driver And Family Car !
