Great car Francois! I really like to see the European Barracuda's show up!  The code of "8" instead of a "B" is correct for export cars.  I think there is another thread or two here on c-c.com that talks about the export cars.

Since the fender tag was removed, you might want to take a look at the standard areas where the build sheet would be stashed.
That might shed some light on your car, or a lot of light.

Hopefully that vin stamp on the motor will match your vin plate numbers.

That Cuda is awesome. I would leave it "as is" and touch it up where needed. It can stand out in a crowd or just be another restored Cuda (just my opinion)

Hi Francois,

Maybe a bit late... But here you find the old "European" topic.
I'm sorry, but most of the pics are missing :-(

Thank you KM/H  :clapping:
That was the thread I was thinking of. I should have looked for it sooner, before the pictures went away.  The history on the European exported cars is very interesting.

Hi Francois,

Do you allready know if it's an 340 or 383?
If it's a 340, it's the first I see without the Schinznach plates..
Do you know what FB2 means?
