Re: Original Hemi Cuda Info.......
does anyone know of a '68 Hemi 'cuda found in Wilson, NC? i don't know if it was a real one or not but there was a former racecar that sat in a backyard in that area for years and then it disappeared.

Re: Original Hemi Cuda Info.......
April 1968 (Cecil County Drag-O-Way)
One the earliest tests with the 68' Hemi Barracuda. At the time, the 68' Hemi Barracuda was 'not yet' legal for NHRA SS/B or SS/BA. |

Re: Original Hemi Cuda Info.......
Hope we can hear from some past and current BO29 owners/crews.
Nothing says it better than "first hand" knowledge |

I have a shot of the Cuda, after the sale and repaint, and it still has the #784 on the rear quarter windows. We ran it in the NASCAR ULTRA STOCK circuit that year. |
