Mopar virgin checking in with new 1969 Barracuda - with questions.... ;)

My dad & uncle bought new cudas in 69. My uncles is a 383 car (the one I have now) & dads was a 340. My dad said he could out run my uncle in the 1/4 mile but not much after that the 383 would blow right by. He said both cars handled pretty the same. Both cars had manual steering & 4spd.I drove many big block a bodies (none stock) & I can tell you what a feeling. Good luck with your cuda & keep us posted.:-D
