Is this the same car??
« on: December 05, 2005 - 09:07:09 AM »
I was watching this car on ebay, looked like a decent car for under 30K. Now I see the exact same car a couple weeks later for 40K.  Looks like a dealer added a 10K 6-pack!

It is the same car and you are correct about the addition of the six pack.
Both interior pictures show that someone added speakers in the kick panels.

Yup, looks to be the same.
The second seller isn't revealing that it's a BH car though, at least the ebay auction let you know that.
That would be a decent price if it was a true BS 'Cuda.......... it still has a good "drool factor" though.  :bigthumb:

I love the way they only take pix of the right side of the console so you can`t tell they hacked up an auto top plate ... wonder what else they are hiding ???
Mufflers are installed backwards , painted steel bumpers , missing the fill pieces around the rear bumper drops  :banghead:

It's also a 70 with a 71 wing. I'd trade hime my 70 wing for that 71 wing though.

"BH" in the VIN# denotes it is a Barracuda. "BS" is a 'Cuda.

thanks 4drbrnko. i also noticed that the tail lights are '70 as well. Ebay advertised it as a '70, while autabuy is advertising it as a '71. i looked through all my books and the only pictures i saw of a '70 wing was on an AAR, is that the same wing used on all 70's?

Cant swap wings without changing trunk lids...the center to center distance between the support brackets is diff.

Notice that car does not have front marker lites?  Wonder what else was cobbed up on it?

Stay away, stay far away.
