Original Hemi Cuda Info.......

[68hemiss]

Terry,
I cleaned out my mailbox. Here is a pic of the Barracuda (2nd owner) - the lettering was changed by the second owner. The car would have been originally blue. Sorry, I don't have any pics of when the 3rd owner had the car. I am not sure if there is anything familiar to you in this pic. Any chance that your brother would have any pics?
Thanks,
Mark J

Bagwell had a couple of Barracudas from what I recall. I think one is in OH, I am not sure where the other one is - I think that one was in Canada for a while as well - I have to check my notes/pics

Charlie,
Will see if my brother has any pics. I can tell you that it was probably a stick shift car at one time, because the trans tunnel had been cut out and made removeable for easier access, I would assume. It was secured with hood pins. Some other items that stand out were that the front inner fenderwells had been removed and it only had a three point roll bar in it. We took it to Barnett's where Frank installed a full cage with swing out drivers side bar.
Thanks,
Terry

With the weekend points meet in the swamp, this just seems like the right BO29 to post for today's Pic Fix:

Hey all,
Long time lurker, although I do not post much. I was directed here by a member on a different racing website. I have made a few runs of these brackets, and have 4 sets available as of now. I had supposed buyers, but some of them had flaked.
They are identical to the original SS seat brackets from Hurst. They are meant to be used with the A-100 seats, but can be used with different seats by simply drilling a couple holes.
Please email me directly if you are interested. These are $200 for a set of 4 brackets. Thanks!

A reminder,, the former "Gentle Ben"/ DeFrank & Cohen/ Harry Holton '68 B029 Hemi Cuda goes on the auction block Saturday June 14th,,, Mecum auction in Seattle, Lot # S203. The Mecum auction is being carried by NBCSN,,, check your listings.
There were a lot of very nice cars up there today as you might imagine. If you're nearby, go check it out,,, if not, catch it on the broadcast. They were advertising 600 cars,, but the word was that there were closer to 800 by the opening this morning.
We had a great time up there today taking it all in.
