They even have the same offset on the #s, must not have completely dialed in the machine for centering. Old picture sucks, can't get a new one for a couple more days, but still shows the offset

Curious if it's C0E 100192? I have BH23 C0E 100322 and I know JH23 C0E 1004xx (same owner since '73). All first week of production cars. Mine just had paint laid down 2 days ago

I *love* that Cuda

if so, what is it and roughly how many miles a year?

not sure how I missed this. Welcome! I'm in the area as well. Great story, glad you're bringing it back to life.

I've always been a bit confused on the VON vs VIN number and SPD. My '70 is SPD 820 (1st week of production), VIN of 100322 is really low, probably 1st few days of production..... But VON is 017258. Is VON just sequenced off total # of all body styles ordered? If that's the case, it would seem...

'71 GB5 is a little darker than the '70 EB5

Thanks!! I don't know why it didn't show up when I searched.

I didn't know they had a textured argent or I would have suggested them too. I LOVE Herbs paints, really great quality and match to my '70 EB5

I haven't used it, but generally their OER line is pretty good https://www.classicindustries.com/product/1970/plymouth/barracuda/parts/K89182.html

Does anyone have the formulation breakdown?

I'm pretty sure I sent it over to him a few years ago, but just in case I sent it again.

too bad it wasn't for mine. not that it's anything special, but it would have been nice to have. if anyone owns 100677 I'd gladly gift over the sheet. here is my tag with the skinny LA font too

My dad paid $1600 in '73 for a '70 /6 base model, parked it in '87, gifted to me in '13 and I'm hoping to be finished with the restoration by summer. Free is the only saving grace to this expensive endeavor

They absolutely came in e-bodies. My '70 (BH23 C0E) built on 820 had one under the back seat .... for another BH23 C0E about 350 #s later. Mine is B5/B5, the sheet car is EW1/B5
