Yeah I know, I don't have the peep peep horn as well. Anyway, I browse the following link quite often. It is where I picked up my 69 Z28 recently. Good luck!

You'll want to be careful. There's a lot of BS 'Cudas out there right now, and their prices are as high as ever.

The site to go to, however, is www.moparts.com.

Go to www.gvgovier.com and order Galen Govier's white books. They are an invaluable tool and a wealth of information when looking at Mopars. The two books I would recommend and own are Chrysler Corporation Production Option Code Book 69-71 Sixth Edition , July 2001 and Part and Casting numbers book 62-74, Ninth edition May 2001. These books list every option code casting code etc. as well as how to read Chrysler date codes. They are pocket size and have helped me steer clear of let's just say falsely advertised cars. Cudas and Challengers Six Pack and Hemi cars are bringing big money. Check out www.classicauto-sales.com. He has a 70 Hemi Orange 440 Six Pack 4 spped car that has got to be one of the nicest Six Pack Cudas around.

Just to satisfy curiosity, why are you looking into a Barracuda? Sure they are fast but they really don't drive that well, in my opinion. Plus they've got that darn thump from the pinion snubber everytime you stand on the gas.

I'd love to have a 1971 big block 'cuda someday. Check out www.heminet.com . They usually have a few nice ones advertised there. Dan

Nice pun, since the first 2 digits of the VIN for real Cuda would be "BS". If you have any questions about E-bodies, I would be happy to answer them. I used to be heavy into these cars. Over the years I had a 383 Cuda Convert, two 71 440 Six Barrel Cuda Converts (a 4spd and an auto), a 71 Hemicuda Convert, a 69 Hemi Daytona, a 71 Hemi Charger R/T factory sunroof car (all real cars) and an assortment of other Mopars which, if I had kept them all, I would probably be divorced and my wife would have all the money!
You can PM me or reply here. Good Luck! -NJSteve

I had the pleasure of looking at the nicest vintage Cuda I have ever seen or heard of a few days ago. My friend just bought the car, I had never heard of it or new it existed. It is a red/orange, black vinyl, black int/ auto, 1970 Hemi Cuda with 46 actual documented miles!!!!!!!! The first owner bought it new and died several days later. Family keep it in climate controlled correct storage all these years. The car is absolutly astounding from every perspective, a brand new 70 Hemi Cuda. Has to be the finest example in the world. I will try and get some pics to post.
