Quote: I just brought 1971 Barracuda Gran Coupe project, wonder if it is rare and it only make 1020. Should I restore it back to normal with 318. And it have a lot of option, it have build sheet and fender tag:
J81-Rear Spoiler (Gull Wing) C26-Roof Console J78-Front Spoiler A21-Elastomeic/Color Front Bumper A45- Spoiler Package F&R very RARE on a non-'Cuda FE5-Rally Red J54-Rally Hood RARE on a non-'Cuda E44-318
With the documentation you have & it's rarity (combined with the fact that it survived 44 years without being robbed of parts or already "cloned" into a HEMI'Cuda) - leave it a GRAN COUPE. If you "need" more power - stay small block!
Got tag & sheet pics?
Does it look like the RED grill has always been there?
