Maybe the saddest M-Code Cuda you will ever come across
because i have a collection of old Barracudas and one of the M-Code cars, i'm always looking at ads for these cars. whenever i come across a M-Code car being sold, i really get excited.
however, below are pictures of a M car that's for sale out of Cleveland, Ohio (USA) for $9000 that may be the most depressing car ad i've ever seen.
this car is not only a M-Code Cuda, it was one of those very LUCKY special production 440 Cudas (like the one i have) that ended up being cut up into a drag car. yep - another example of Plymouth's equivalent of a Yenko Camaro being cut up into a quarter-mile rocket.
But just cutting up an original M-Code coupe Cuda was apparently not satisfying enough for the original owner of this car. this guy decided to cut the top off the coupe and "graft" a fastback top on it! yes, i've never heard of anyone doing that to a 67-69 Barracuda either. and then, of course, once this "Frankenstein Cuda" was created, it was used as a drag-racer. LOL! you know, it's not like Chrysler didn't produce hundreds of thousands of coupes and fastback Barracudas between 1967 and 1969. i don't want to offend anyone here but i am really at a loss for words as to WHY anyone would go to all the trouble they did to cut up and ruin a very valuable 69 M-Code Cuda for no reason that i can possible understand. feast your eyes on these photos. and hey - maybe one of you guys out there will buy this "cuda freak" car and return it to being a stock coupe. at least it still has the correct M-Code VIN dash in it.
