Rallye dash is definitely a 73-74 set-up, and added, as is the steering wheel. You can see the heater control panel has the corner clip for the standard gauge package. Pedal trim is standard on a Gran Coupe.  Maybe the new owner will have pity, and keep its Gran Coupe heritage.  But somehow, i doubt that.


Actually the pedal trim is optional on a Gran Coupe... I owned two GC's back in the 70's-80's & neither had it.... So I went to the Hamtramck Historical site & found this...   http://www.hamtramck-historical.com/images/dealerships/DealershipDataBook/1970/70_Barracuda0023.jpg

I agree a lot of Gran Coupe's got it but plenty didn't too...

Interesting.  I will have to research it further.  i was always under the impression that the pedal dress-up was standard.  :drunk:

The page I linked doesn't show it but the page you linked shows it as std... And both pages are from the same factory publication.....
That page also shows wheel well trim as standard on Cuda yet it's known that it was N/A with a 340.....   Who knows.... What I can say is I've owned a couple GC's without the trim... & it was long enough ago I doubt they had been messed with...

Haha, no not my car. I called texted and emailed, the seller called me and we spoke about 45 minutes. He said no one's put a deposit on it, although people are claiming they're going to. He was going to send me further info and pictures, but I never heard from them again and now its sold.
