NEW: S/S Hemi Prototype Barracuda (Mule) Info found ! Magazine Test car connection!
Thank you for posting that. That was written by Geoff then put into print by Mopar Muscle magazine I believe. This is precisely why I'm trying to clear this situation up.
Unfortunately, that is 100% incorrect information printed in Mopar Muscle magazine that the car was a 1967 383. Either by Geoff or by someone that edited the article.
I have Bob Tarozzi's signed letter to the previous Mule/Prototype owner stating that is was a 1968 cars from the Test dept. And I have multiple original notes from late 1967 and 1968 that say it was a 1968 340 4spd. I have talked to Bob directly about this and he said it was a 1968. These are 1968 facts. Not a writer's interpretation or remembrance or editor's error.
Also the fender tag on the Mule/Prototype is for a 1968 340 4spd Barracuda.
Also photos from the Irwindale test session clearly show a 1968 chassis.
Look at this original historical doc's dated 10/9/1967 and 12/8/1967.
