Sorry, no louvers on the back windows, but louvers on the fenders.

 You would be surprised on how many people call their plain jane Barracuda...A 'Cuda.  I'm glad you had the real deal.  :cheers:

Hope you find it.
As for cuda vs barracuda, I have no problem with anyone calling their car whatever they want. I call mine cuda sometimes, barracuda others. Except for the purists, theyre interchangeable to me.

I found this post and posted it to the Lost Muscle Cars facebook page. Within half a day we had a successful hit! The site has been a great resource for reuniting people with their old cars.

I'll leave it up to you now to complete the connection.

My Dad bought this 'Cuda over 20 years ago (1994). The car's in Michigan. The Billboards were also added in 1994.

Oh, so you own it now...have you talked to the guy that was looking for it ? Maybe he'll offer you twice what it's worth :money:

Nope....I wasn't clear, sorry.  My Dad still owns it but hopefully I might have first dibs someday. I'll also have a brother (who probably also wants it). Like I said, its been around for 20 years and its likely not going anywhere soon.  It rarely gets out these days and its hardly ever shown as Dad likes to keep a low profile. Last time it came out anywhere big it was 2008 where it won a blue ribbon in Muscle Car Class @ Eyes On Design in Detroit (2008).  :thumbsup:

The power of the internet! Whether the car is for sale or not, it's cool the OP could know where it is and that people are still enjoying it!  :thumbsup:
