I seem to recall the yellow / red / black Defrank & Cohen Barracuda being for sale by Eddie Smith at the '91 Mopar Nationals in Columbus, Ohio. Eddie had 3 class legal SS/AA cars there that weekend. The DeFrank & Cohen car had recently undergone an update and cosmetic restoration and it was flawlessly detailed. I'll try to scan some pics of all the SS/AA cars that were present ath the Mopar Nationals that summer and post them here. Back when SS leaf springs and ladder bars made for nosebleed wheelies in that class.
