Yes, good picture and considering it is taken from an angle from behind, the gap between the tire and the front lower lip of wheel well, is connciderebely bigger than on production cars, even bigger than on this Dart...
Note (about the same angle) on the production car how, at the bottom closer to the rocker, the wheel well line cuts in sts.
We are talking an inch at the most, at the very bottom, that was cut off at some point...
I don´t beleve this myself really, but is it possible rear quarter was prefab at Chrysler, on the bodies that vere ment to be shiped to Hurst. Think they had the time to do so on the first run of Cudas... second run not likley...
How tall are the tires, on cars leaving Hurst?

Edit.
I have now found the picture I first made to compare and saved, when i saw the picture of the Cuda taken at Hurst and posted on a forum a couple years ago. This picture of a production Barracuda, is taken from close to the exact same angle as the Hurst pic. Acctually a little further forward, witch makes the wheel well line go more stright, making the difference look less compared to the Hurst picture.
Disregard the three picture shown in this post.
I post three new picture in next post.
Remember, we are talking some 1" at the most at the very bottom of the wheel well. Inside is the wheel tube. Cutting line than gradually goes upwards to meat edge of wheel well some 10 inches up. So not a whole lot has been cut of.
I have earlier posted picture of the Mule Car, that also have this cut done.
