Cuda_Al's Copper 1967 Barracuda Fastback

It had been rebuilt twice and was at 0.060, not sure what happened to let the water in. During the disassembly no smoking guns were found. Being a 67 all you need is a close date code to be numbers correct.

The 69 on that episode belongs to a friend of mine, I went with him to the filming, fun outing. The 69 has always said to be the fastest CHP car ever, Dodge tested them at 149.6, CHP with the car fully equipped had the up to 135, officers often tell stories of having them up to 150, hard to say with a speedometer that only goes to 140.

Back in 1968, an express way was just opening up in the Tulsa area. The Tulsa police bought 2, 440 Plymouths to catch the Camaro boys that were outrunning them , leaving town on the new expressway. I had a friend that was a mech. at the dealer ship the cars were bought from, and the factory guaranteed the cars would run 180 if kept tuned right. The next year I BOUGHT A 1969 coronet RT in OKC, that had the same drivetrain, it would bury the 150 mph speedometer. There was a ''lot" of travel left after 150 in a in a 69 RT too.
