1969 Plymouth Barracuda Restoration
 
 

Facts

  1. Facts and figures come from various sources but mostly the Barracuda Owners Group (BOG) Forum. I have tried to avoid copyrighted material. If I have such material, I apologize and will remove it or will give you credit if you wish. I have tried only to include facts and remove opinions.


  1. The way I have gathered most of my information is that I read the BOG Yahoo group eMail and copy pertinent information from consecutive messages on a specific subject. I follow the thread until it's conclusion. When someone with expertise correctly contradicts someones email, I eliminate the former email. I then organize all the compilations into the order I have described below.



Expert Testimony & Quotes

  1. Included are experts testimony from the web. Some have been given credit, but not all. When I put a name on the page, it only concerns that paragraph and not those paragraphs above or below that paragraph. 



Table of Contents

  1. None is included, however, each page (auto system) does have a highlight box, with bullet points of interest. See example below:


                                     

The 1969 Plymouth Barracuda was an A body type. The car came in 17 different body colors.

Disclaimer

  1. I make no claim to know all the facts. The information presented is in condensed form and in some cases incomplete.



Mission Statement

  1. This website is just a way to share information in one spot for my fellow 2nd generation Barracuda lovers. In turn, I hope to gain more knowledge on the subject from its readers. I do not intend to profit from this endeavor. 



Updates

  1. Material will be updated regularly. I welcome your comments, suggestions, corrections and critiques to make this a better site for all.
