I seen that car it is BEAUTIFUL ! ! !

yes its!!!

We Lost a member yesterday big-block-dave RIP
We lost a great person yesterday, so young too.
I got the phone call that no one wants to get. Dave's wife called me last night telling that Dave (big-bloc-dave) passed away unexpectedly today.
He was a great friend of mine. Sorry I am at a loss of words. Great family man, Loved Mopars - especially 1969 Barracuda Notchbacks. He ran the 440 M code 'Cuda registry. He will be greatly missed. RIP Dave Goodwin big-block-dave.

When the obituary goes out I will attach it.

Very sad, sold him an NOS 69 header panel at Carlisle this year, been dealing with him for years. I had no indication that anything was wrong, RIP me friend...

sad... just goes to show we had better do all we can while we
are here

From one 69 M-code owner to another, rest in peace Dave.

Dave I am sorry to hear this. I just spoke to him recently. God Speed

RIP dave ,very sorry to hear this

I will help Dave's family as much as I can with his stuff. Hopefully I can get all the M code stuff and find somebody as knowledgeable as Dave to take it over.

It will take a special person to take over the 69 Cuda Registry. Dave was committed to carrying the torch that had been started hope someone will step up and be as will as Dave was. He was too young, he will be greatly missed.

I agree, trying to find someone as knowledgeable as Dave will be tough. I know quite a bit about Darts but I am still learning about Barracudas and Dave was helping me out by comparing notes between the two. I currently have these in my possession, a 1969 M-Code Cuda coupe in pieces that was starting to be restored, and a 1967 Formula S 383 4-speed survivor. I had a 69 M-Code Fastback but it was restored before I got it and I didn't have it long enough to check out all the differences.

Update
So I went to Dave's house and we went through some of Dave's stuff with his wife. She has a few decision to make now, not easy think to do. I did find the M Code Registry stuff. We talked about that also. Most likely I will end up with it unless I can find someone else that I think would do a great job.
I will keep everyone updated.

Glad you got over there to help her, Dave.

Jim,
Thanks
First thing I see when we open the garage door was the NOS header panel steering right at me.

Any 1969 M-Code Cuda and Dart owners in (northern) Ohio or Ohio adjacent States? I know of three M-Code Darts in my area within a 5-mile area mine being one of them. Thought that was odd and then I've seen several M-Code Cuda's at Norwalk, Ohio Monster Mopar show with Ohio plates. Also saw a B5 blue M-Code Dart with Ohio plates I think is/was from Youngstown, Ohio area? Back in the spring of 1969 I went to order a '69 Dart GTS 383 and then found an article in a car mag that talked about the M-Code 440 Dart and tried to find a Dodge dealership that could order that instead.....no one knew anything about the 440 Dart. Long story short I ended up ordering a new '69 Road Runner. The Dart 383 or the M-Code 440 were going to be ordered in green with a black interior.......fast forward and guess what I eventually stumbled across by luck for an M-Code Dart......#8 on the GTS registry. It found me 30 years later by chance, yep it's green with a black interior.

The cuda I restored has went from Ohio to New Jersey to Massachusetts and now back to Northern Ohio. Well its actually in florida for the winter but it will be back in Ohio this spring. Who shall I put the new owner in contact with to get him listed on the registry?

The registry is on at the moment, Dave who ran the registry died this summer. Nobody has been chosen to carry it on yet...

Hello I have a 1970 Road Runner V code Did any of them come with a 22" Radiator and not the 26" 956 and what is the part number ??? Thanks Donnie

Yes unfortunately 3:23 auto cars got the smaller radiator.

Without going back through 40+ pages (on my screen) is there an illustration with dimensions to fabricate a driver's side engine mount for an M-Code 440 Dart/Cuda? Also is there a source to buy a complete new driver's side engine mount for the same application? Thanks in Advance.
