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?
