Might buy 64 'Cuda...but A/C and CONSOLE...?! Huh?

Sure looks like a sixty five. The console shifter and the dash are 65 style. The 64 had the fuel temp and ammeter in seperate gauges instead of the big round combo unit. Check the VIN to be sure. http://www.earlycuda.org/tech/vin.htm

If the fender tag is still on the left inner fender well get that info too. It is very useful. Looks like a car in really decent condition. If the convertible is really a 64 you can compare the dashes to see the differences. As you have discovered the 64 and 65 Barrcudas only differed in a very few areas.
