What PARTS did Hurst and Chrysler put in the Super Stock Barracuda & Dart not in other factory cars

In theory, the radio/heater delete plate on the Darts could be had if you ordered a car without them. Practically speaking, that doesn't make sense for a street car. Anyone ever see one? Years ago my first delete plate I got from a junkyard in Tucson, Az. so I guess someone could have ordered a car like that in that area. But that's the only one I've ever seen. The outside mirror delete was something else as any place I know of requires them. Anyone ever see a non BO/LO car with these parts?

i bet that was a Mexican A-body with the heater delete. We used to see them here and there in So Cal junkyards back in the day. Never thought to look back then. Tucson would have a even higher rate of them.

Yes, I’ve seen them in two Mexican 68 318 GTS, a 72 Mexican “Demon” but I think was called a Valliant, a ‘69 barracuda at Pomona swap meet with the remains of it (had 200+ kph speedo too). There a 73 or something Mexican Dart with those extended rear pillars, but I think that car had A/C or was converted once.

the 68 Darts had barracuda rallye dashes in them. Not sure if that was because it was a GTS or not.

Those cars in Mexico get absolutely hammered.

I’ve heard of some Hawaiian E-bodies with heater delete. I would assume there were Hawaiian A-bodies also with heater delete.

The mirror block off was probably something for another country too. Chrysler sold cars and truck all over globe.
