Captian Obvious Driving a cool 65 Formula S??

[65cudalover]

Has anybody else seen the commercial for Hotels.com with Captain Obvious getting into the black early A body Barracuda and driving off? To me it looks like a 65 Formula S but hard to tell from the quick side view? Just saw the commercial and then looked it up online and see the picture of the car which seems to have little or no emblems on it. I was amazed to see the early A body beauty in such a commercial as we get such low publicity for anything. Either way it is a funny cool thing to see it on TV!

I think "we" decided that is not a Barracuda

Might be? "Guess not"

Australian, other export?

Definetly a 64-65 Barracuda 100%.....I bet the rear window was photoshopped for copyright reasons...or its a custom....

 

[discharger1332]

i think it is definately a barracuda, the back window looks modified but look at the wing window, and the interior shot is dead on barracuda.

 

[RustyRatRod]

Looks like somebody f'ed up a perfectly good Barracuda.

That is definitely a Cuda. Top of 1/4 trim, front bumper, and the valiant lower 1/4 panel spear.

Studebaker Hawk maybe?

Barracuda...with a bad photoshop job.

Look inside of the back glass, you can see a black/dark area where the rear window line goes up like the original window...with the redone back window there is no reason for that to be there...it should be just blue all the way to the back.

'S what I thought but the top rear of the window line is wrong.........

 

[KitCarlson]

I think the car shares a similar black color to the Stude. I agree a 65 Barracuda with a poor photoshop mod. The white back ground above the rear window, gives it away.

 

[Hell_Fish]

Its a Barracuda. No doubt about it.

 

[rapom65]

Interior light at top of sail panel dead give away - Barracuda

 

[chryslerfat]

Its a Barracuda as said look at the trim and other body lines.

Everyone keeps saying photoshop, but you don't use that in videos...

the picture is a screen capture from a video.

After having 4 rims and 4 tires in the back of my barracuda today, without any of that in the trunk, I can't see why anyone would reduce the window size! I love it!

 

[barbee6043]

I say stude

 

[red cuda]

[adriver]

So it's not obvious what it is then?
Ugh , sorry. Had to say it.

 

[nm9stheham]

It's a Studecuda....obviously.

 

[chryslerfat]

If you look close you can see the chrome beltline moulding at the bottom of the rear window. Its a Cuda.

 

[Valiant63]

It has the window opening of a 65 barracuda and lower quarters look right, but the back windo, hood and the front fenders are not right at all. Is it a conglomeration of car parts? Custom car???
