sunroof car questions
« on: May 16, 2014 - 02:38:06 PM »
So, I have not seen any cuda's in 70 or 71 with a factory sunroof.

The only cuda's I have seen and have pictures for are 72 sunroof cuda's.

Does anyone have pictures of 70-71 cuda's with a sunroof.

I've really only seen one 70 chally with the sunroof.

Well, as I said earlier, the only cuda's that I have seen are 72's.  I've seen two but only have the BS for one of them.

It appears there were many more challengers made with the sunroof option in 70-71.

Really trying to find if there are any 70-71 cuda's with this option. 
I've always figured if I got another 72-74 that I would try for a sunroof car.

There just isn't that much info on this out there. 

I also figured there would be more replies from some of you more knowledgeable older fellas out there.

I can't find the sunroof option in the 70 + 71 Barracuda data book or salesmans pocket guides, so it wasn't available.

found some more info that I brought up.
I knew the information was there, just took me a while to find it.
Doesn't really tell me that there were not any in 70 and 71 though.

The sunroof option was available on a Barracuda only in 1972.  Although I have heard from a reliable source that a very late production 71 Barracuda sold out of Quebec, Canada had one.  Sorry to not be of more help to you.  I would bet that someone out these has the information on the Quebec car.

Hey everyone,
I have been doing some research on early power sunroof cars ever since I pulled a 1971 sunroof Sebring Plus out of a salvage yard 18 months ago. As far as I have found, the Cudas and Barracudas only had the power sunroof option available in 1972, while the Challengers had the option available from 1970-1972. None of the Dealership books and brochures on the Barracuda line list it for 1970 and 1971.

Thanks for the info.  I have yet to see a 72 challenge with a sunroof.  Have you seen one?
