Be neat to see those two parked together...

The AAR has a pretty rare interior combo :thumbsup:

Great picture - definitely a lot "brighter" than the Cuda!
Thanks for posting Ron!


Speaking of "brighter" check out this '71 Challenger in EV2 Hemi-Orange with the V6V fluorescent orange stripes! Now that's bright - almost like "day-glo!"



Another pic from the front. Also has the M28 Wide Wrap-Around Grill Moulding that I like  :thumbsup:



And another pic from the other side. Note the H5K4 orange and black, cloth and vinyl, "houndstooth" interior  :thumbsup:



Like the little parking sign in the background. Nah! This "day-glo" orange Chally couldn't be a Hemi? Must be parked in the wrong space! :lol:

Here is an interesting '70 Cuda currently on ebay here:  http://www.ebay.com/itm/Plymouth-Barracuda-CUDA-/291440781025?forcerrptr=true&hash=item43db3966e1&item=291440781025 



This car has a lot of cool features to it. The most obvious thing is the High-Impact FM3 Moulin Rouge paint! Now that's "High-Impact!" The Moulin Rouge paint is accented by a black vinyl roof and a black hockey stick stripe. I like it!

The interesting part is in the pic of the fender tag. On it we can see that the car was not originally coded for a hockey stick stripe but instead it was coded for a V4X black strobe stripes - how cool is that?! :thumbsup:



The fender tag also shows a very unusual "V08" code which comes back as a "paint, trim, vinyl roof, edit waiver"?? :dunno: Not sure what that's about?? :clueless: But the fender tag also shows this car as having the A67 rear window louver package! :thumbsup:

FM3 Moulin Rouge paint ... V4X black strobe stripes ... A67 rear window louver package ... this is one very cool Cuda! :cooldancing: And as "Siskel and Ebert" would say ... I give it  :2thumbs:



This FM3 beauty is back up for sale on ebay, although with what looks like a different seller (a flipper?). Got a new price too: first it had a "buy it now" price of $50K; but now it has been revised to a reserve auction with a starting bid of $35K. Still like this car - it has a lot of cool features to it. :2thumbs: Here is the new link:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Plymouth-Barracuda-/221936996031?forcerrptr=true&hash=item33ac79cebf:g:ucgAAOSwniRWOABS&item=221936996031

My best guess is that because the V6_ hockey stripe was standard, to replace it with a V4_ stripe, there would need to be a "Delete" code (V08).  With the louvre package, that would be one cool looking car!

Hockey stick stripes were optional not standard.
