I built this car a few years ago and it is going across the block at BJ next week. Funny how they talk about all the hours that "they" put into it. I put most of the hours into it. My friend did the body and paint and I did everything else.
They did change the head lights....

It was a 318/904/8.75 Sub-Lime rubber front bumper with a white bench seat interior. That was pretty much it. Pretty solid car out of Santa Fe NM needing a roof skin and some small quarter patches.
I called it The Animal.
Along with P/S, E/W and A/C it also has electric cutouts and a line lock. We had Stockton make a pair of 15x12 Rallyes with an 8" back space. Those cost 700.00 for the pair. We also had 18 and 20's for it.
It dynoed at 610HP here at 4600' with a 750 DP. I then put a 950DP on it which woke it up a bit and then I ended up putting twin 625 Eddys which really let it breath. Probably around 800hp when I done getting her dialed in.

Wondering what it will bring?

No idea what it might sell for but it is nice and I imagine it will go for good money.

Nice build! Just have to the right guy looking. Most never get what you have in them counting the labor. Good luck one sale.
Love it

Was it an original bh car? I assume so since the options you listed.
Didn't happen to have that M46 on the tag did it?

Excellent workmanship !!

I built this and several other Cudas for my friend. Think he got 130K for it in a private sale. Then it sold at BJ for 135K a couple years later. Looks like it sold for 156200 this time. It was the highest selling Plymouth through Friday night.

It was a BH car with a 318. Was a real Sub-lime rubber front bumper car.
Don't recall M46 on the tag. What is that? Fender skirt?
It was an August built car. I need to get more pics from my friend.

70 coronet R/T is a totally different scoop.
I have a set of 70 RT scoops that are going on my warrior car. See pic. Scoop not installed yet but will be soon.
Look at this thread to see the details of the actual one year , one model only barracuda scoop. This is the only thread on the net that shows these scoops.
