Looking for one of these kits. I'm well aware of what is currently available on Ebag. Asking, specifically, the community here if anyone has one in their private stash they'd consider parting with. Factory seal is NOT a deal breaker. Built or partially built definitely considered. Hit me up here. Thanks, FABO-land!!
 
Possibly interested. PM pics please. Thanks for your response!!
 
That does look like it
Sorry I couldn't be of more help...that was a fun one to build
 
I just have these barracuda sealed in boxes if you are interested in buying. Except Hurst isn’t sealed

Really wish that MPC Round 2 would reissue that kit. Be even better with a raisen bran hood. Even though the motor and chassis are generic, that kit has that certain allure the others (monogram, Johan, revell, and Lindberg) don't.

Agreed. It just has the right look.

Could I ask why you are wanting that kit?

Nostalgia, I guess. I remember like it was yesterday when I got it. K-Mart. I had a couple bucks in my pocket, mom covered the rest. If it would have been anything else, she wouldn't have. But, she knew that model building then was my thing.
 
No photos but I did mine to sorta match my brothers 73 340 Cuda. Of course there were no 340, road wheels, factory stripes or Internet back in the 80s. Only thing was mail order thru Scale Auto Enthusiast.

I hear you.
I thought it might be the Mopar Missile Hood Scoop.
I built one years ago.

The one I'm after is the blue one. The Orange pro street one has the Missile hood scoop. The blue has a flat hood with the fine lines underneath for the blower cut out. A Middle Model would definitely be cool!
 
As I recall I had to glue some Evergreen strip on the edge(s?) to make it larger, but I don't remember where. It's a very close fit right out of the box.

And I don't remember where the tires came from but they very well may have been in the MPC kit!
