Title: 1974 Barracuda 360
Post by: Timmy2Tires on November 05, 2020, 10:27:18 AM
I'm putting this away for the winter, but thought I would share some pics to show what I am starting with. Engine and trans were out when I got it.

Fender tag is hard to read. Here is what I came up with.  In the top row there is an L2 and 558 that come up as unknown

Car is really nicely optioned for a Barracuda having the rally dash and sport hood...not to mention a 360....
I found G21 Clear glass with AC to be a very odd option, I had it on a 71 Cuda. Why would anybody delete the tinted glass  :crazytalk:

@Timmy2Tires (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/timmy2tires_8782)  Does your car have a rear anti-sway bar?  I think I see one up front.

AWESOME color & great starting point!!  :wowzers:  "L2" is assembly LINE #2 & I believe the "558" is the last 3-digits of the JOB # or some kind of daily sequence number
  (do you have a broadcast sheet?)

I have a partial build sheet. The right hand side. This was in the driver seat bottom. nothing in back seat or on the glove box. I have to pull the seat cover to see if there might be one in the seat back.

Nice!  I also have a numbers matching '74 Cuda. The original color was also T-5 Sienna Poly but the previous owner had it repainted to B5 blue. I have a full MMC Detroit report on mine so if you need help decoding your fender tag, I'd be happy to help if I can. Mine is a two fender tag car so it's got a ton of options (not a 4 speed though  :( ).
