1st Gen Barracuda ?
It would be cool if we could get some stats on when cars were produced
My 64 Barracuda was built July 8, 1964, Hamtramck
My 65 Signet was built June 9, 1965, St. Louis
I don't have the fender tag for the blown car but I know it was a later 65 production, it had the spring loaded trunk prop which came out in mid 65 It was originally a 273 4spd built in Hamtramck.
I have the fender tag on my stock 65 but I need to get it and decode it, it is a 273 auto built in St. Louis also a later production.
I have the vin numbers for 3 of the other 65 Barracuda's and one of the Valiant's I had but no fender tags.
1) 65 Barracuda slant six 4spd built in Hamtramck. (early production)
2) 65 Barracuda 273 auto built in Hamtramck. (early production)
3) 65 Barracuda 273 4spd built in St. Louis. (early production)
4) 65 Valiant 100 4dr slant six auto built in St. Louis.
if anyone has one they want to part with..........
Now, mine is a true 1964, but evidently, someone along the line liked the fish symbol just below the back of the rear window and swapped the Valiant symbol out for the fish.

Just so you know, the right and left emblems are different, they look the same but the studs are in a different location.
I almost used the 66 window trim on mine, it does look pretty cool with the Barracuda instead of the Plymouth emblem.
I didn't know there were any "False 1964 Barracudas" or do we call them Mustangs?? blahahahahahahaha
That's funny.
I love it when Mustang guys say the Barracuda was copying the Mustang and then seeing their face when I let them know the Barracuda came out first.
