its a Cuda lol
just purchased today and awaiting it to arrive in the next couple days as its being shipped across country.

so far what I know is there is matching dash vin, cowl, body vin, sticker on door, fender tag, engine vin has build sheet and is in the Galen govier white book

am missing the matching transmission  but will track it down one day or die trying lol

going to slowly restore it back to its original state.

1970 383 4bbl E-bodies:

* 383 4bbl w/manual transmission (3-speed & 4-speed) are all HOLLEY equipped 383HP engines (335hp) painted orange

** 383 4bbl w/automatic transmission in BS ('cuda) & JS (R/T) are all HOLLEY equipped 383HP engines (335hp) painted orange

*** 383 4bbl w/automatic transmission in BH/BP (Barracuda/Gran Coupe) & JH (Challenger) are all CARTER equipped 383 engines (330hp) painted blue

anyone have information to the contrary or a car that doesn't fit the above?  tell us about it!

mine according to the fender tag is
383 v8 singel barrel carb 335hp painted orange
3 speed auto trans
with up grade options for A01 (light package), A04 (basic group) and A93 9 (Coupe)

so its basically a base barracuda upgraded and painted in torrent red high impact colour  with black and white vinyl interior

the fender tag E63 code was used for both 335hp (ORANGE) & 330hp (BLUE) 383 cu.in. 4bbl engines

the A93 "Barracuda coupe" package was a spring introduction "NEW LOWER PRICE" promotion that "deleted" some equipment (no roll down rear 1/4 windows for example) from the base Barracuda to lower the MSRP.

per GG's "white book" US spec'd (Y05) Barracudas with the combination of A93 (coupe), E63 (383 4bbl), D32 (automatic) = 1  8)

:takepicture: can you share some pics?

I sure will once car is in my possession after shipping. I have lots of pics of tags and bins that I'll share in a few days.
Yes I knew it was rare when I bought it I'm just trying to verify more as it's such a unique car.

Oh wow another n code I may need to speak with the owner to compete for parts lol
Yes this one is supposed to be 1 of 1 because of the a93 package added on but I'm just waiting for the verification papers from GG As its been verified in his registry but I want to make sure mine is the actual one in there. I don't like to count my chickens before they hatch
