fisher and christie raced with cossey in 1969, before moving east to work for sox and martin. i guess the question is, is it the same car, and who had it first. also the other cuda in primer paint seems to have the letter g covered up on the door.
Mike,
I think you're right.
The photo is from mid-1969.
The Jerry McClure Barracuda does have the exact same paint scheme
as Wiley Cossey's car. (see post #518).
Light blue rocker panel section, thin dark red body side stripe sections,
white body-center, and dark red hood, roof and trunk stripe.

Wiley Cossey sold his SS/B car in early-1969.

The other Barracuda, with the primered door section and primered quarter-panel section, looks to be Don Carlton's ex 'Lil Thumper' car,,,which was painted light-blue.
