Early or late build date
« on: June 10, 2020 - 11:40:05 PM »
I checked my fender tag and found that my Barracuda was built in Feb 1970. Is this considered a late or early build date? The reason I ask, some parts are based if the car was built in early or late model year. Thanks

I don't think that is early or late; early would be like Oct 69, late would be something like Aug 70 (I believe I have read someone had a Aug build).
Current Mopar
70 Challenger RT 440-6 EFI, 73 Cuda 416-6 EFI
05 Hemi Durango, 01 Ram 4x4, 14 Ram 2500 4X4, 10 PCP Challenger 6 spd RT, 01 Viper GTS ACR, 52 B3B w/330 Desoto Hemi, 70 Hemi RR (under const)
Past Mopars
9 x Challengers. AAR Cuda, 4 RR, 2 GTX, 4 Chargers, etc... (too many to list)

Last build date (via fender tag) in my list is 9th of July. I also have higher VINs but no build date.
