'Cuda dash pad
« on: July 26, 2014 - 08:52:36 PM »
Did the cuda come with barracuda emblem on the right side of the dash pad or did they come with a 'Cuda emblem?
I've been looking for a new dash pad and would really prefer one that has the 'Cuda emblem.
if anyone knows where to get one I would appreciate it.

They NEVER came from the factory with a "CUDA" emblem, they all said "BARRACUDA".1970-1974

If someone makes a custom dash with a Cuda emblem, I've never heard of it :dunno:

On the dash - 1970 had a script "Barracuda", from 71 to 74 had a flat plate that read "Barracuda". No "Cuda" as Alan mentioned.
Now on the doors - there was "Cuda" on the Cuda models.
1971 Cuda Vert 440-833 - (clone)
1971 Cuda 440-727 - (clone)


Because I like it fast!!!
