I just noticed the red inserts in the grill opeings.  Is that a 'Cuda only option?  Sorry, not as familiar with Barracudas...  :dunno:

That's the way they came with the red. Barracuda/cuda and chrome around the very edge

Ah, gotcha.  Thanks, Alan!  :thumbsup:

Yeah, I'm confused, as normal.  I thought I was told at some point that the 'Cudas had that red trim in the grill.  Thanks!

Maybe you were thinking of the 70 'Cuda which had the red trim strip in the center of the grill?
