Thanks, I have no idea. I have not checked the numbers on the engine to see if it is original.

Yeah someone must have really loved this car at one point and did a lot of things to make it unique. The plexi-glass plates above the exhaust tips are formed to the rear valance and have stars in them. I am sure it was a stunner at its prime.

Perhaps I should have been clearer in the beginning. I never thought that this was anything special or unique outside of someone's "hotrod". The grille was done well enough for doubt about its origins and as anyone who has been around Mopars for any length of time "you never say never" which is...

I went and pulled it out and took a hard look at one the grille halves in the sunlight. The emblem and rectangular piece are indeed attached via some type of adhesive. AS I said, whoever did this did a good job of it. Mystery solved!!! Still don't know what I am going to do with the car but it...

Just for the record, I am NOT at all saying or implying any of this crap is factory, rare, etc. so all of the haters can calm down a bit. The only thing I am questioning is the grille, the rest is obviously add on's. Now that said, I am not saying that the grille is factory however it is not...

Possibly but I don't think so.

Ok so I went and took a closer look at the grille and engine compartment. As I stated there isn't a fender tag but more curiously I could not find where one would be attached, not saying the holes are there but rather than I could not find them. The same issue with a certicard, not present and...

I agree completely. I am not sure if I am going to build the car or not, but if I do I will be putting new quarters on (which I already bought) so those louvers would go, but I do kind of like them.

I will look again today for the PLYMOUTH lettering on the drivers side above the grille and let everyone know. I do not think that there is a fender tag still on the car but I will look again. The car has some strange things on it, what looks to be Mustang FB louvers on the sail panels and a...

Sorry my bad... I mistakenly wrote "1st Gen"... I meant 2nd Gen.... I fixed it.

I own this 68 Barracuda FB project car which I have not decided what I am going to do with just yet (build it or sell it), however I was recently selling some engine parts to a local Mopar A body racer and he pointed out something I had not noticed. On my car's grille there is "PLYMOUTH" on the...

Yeah that engine looks like it has seen some use... nice find and car.

Very nice, this thing should be a handful when on the road.

I am using a Holley single plane intake with the stock 5.7 TB which required me to modify a LS 4150 adapter. I have not gotten the car running yet so I do not know how good or bad it will work. I am using a DBW Holley Terminator X max system with a Cherokee DBW peddle.

Full on Bubba and Cooter... LOL
