I met a local guy that bought a M-Dart back in the '70s. He'll be renting storage by my friend's shop and moving it there, he claims it's a tan color, not Y3 cream? Will keep updated as I get to know this guy and his M-Dart! He also has a '69 340 GTS!
I'm the CARETAKER of Weinstats '69 440 'cuda registry and have 104 of the 360 cars to date. 84 fastbacks/20 coupes. Always looking for new(REAL M-code) '69 440 'cudas to add to the registry so drop me a note if any are found or known. This isn't a publicly released registry. Thanks, Dave

Finally the last piece! After two years of searching, placing craigslist wanted ads from coast to coast, gougers, scammers and hoarders, I found a 3462017 for a bargin price! Somebody on craigslist saw my ad and told a guy who racing his car in 71, took off manifolds for headers, been sitting ever since. I knew they were still out there in the corner of someone's garage. And just 20 miles up the road.
Awsome good find, go ahead and tease everyone, I did when i found them at a bargin.  Not all people are out to kill you when they know it will go to a good home.

My 4-speed 69 Barracuda coupe has both front and rear torque boxes.

My 4-speed 69 Barracuda coupe has both front and rear torque boxes. It is total hit-and-miss on 4-speed cars. My 69 383 4-speed GTS has them front and rear but that seems to be the rare case as I have seen many more 4-speed A-Body's with just rears.
The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

GUYS, this M-fastback is back on the market. This is Scott's old car that sold at BJ for $48k. Lots of pics and good video! It actually has a 383 motor mount, NOT 440!!! But the unknowing guy thinks it's correct. Just like he states that only 440 cars have torque boxes. Car also doesn't have lower body stripes and flat black front and rear valence! Not #'s motor or trans. Good note is the undercarriage is all original, not restored. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Plymouth-Barracu...em=381247014532Buy it now $62,900.

Interesting video Dave! Glad I watched it, always wondered about the paint marking on my rear axle and even though they are bold and bright I put them back. This is the first BB A-body I have seen with basically the same markings. While mine is only the 383 it has a lot in common and yes the 383 cars had torque boxes as well not just 440 thing. Guess what they are saying is this car in the link must be a fake cause it has none. This car (Black One) has sold in the past for good money and seems to be unfinished in many respects. 440 m code

My 4-speed 69 Barracuda coupe has both front and rear torque boxes. Yeah, but what motor is in it?? I bet 340? Good guess, being as how my log in name is "...340". So, my measly 340 Barracuda has all four torque boxes, and meanwhile the green and black 'Cuda 440s above have only 2 and none.

I personally have not seen a BB bcuda or Dart with both front and rear boxes! I have 6 '69 BB Bcudas/'cudas and all only have rears weather 383, 440, auto or 4 speed. Have a '69 340 4spd with both, '69 340 auto with none. This seams to be the norm.
