With 318 Auto base Barracudas accounting for roughly 46% of total 1971 Barracuda/Cuda production, does anyone have any idea of how rare or common the B41-B51 power disc brake option was on the base car? I bought this one owner a few years ago. In addition to the brake option, it was ordered with L34 road lamps and G36 racing mirrors. It has black vinyl bucket seats, black vinyl top, AC, power steering, tinted windshield, and column shifter. And last but not least, color code FC7 In Violet paint.

Probably more than you think.

IMO by 1971 Disc brakes are / were not all that rare

PDB is not common, with approx. 13% of hardtops and convertibles (BH) having the option.

Road Lamps are rare, with 3.3% having them.

The mirrors are dependent on the A04 package, as production was tracked with and without A04. Percentage is either 11.7% or 1.5%, so I guess if you add it up it's not common regardless.

All percentages are for US production and, again, base hardtop and ragtop production only.

Quite a Lucky Guy you are!!! feeling jealous of you grin Well for your query, have you searched in Dodge Marketplace? One of my friend parts for his 1970 Cuda. BTW how is the car in terms of driving feel? I heard they gonna launch another in 2020, but I feel the retro Dodge Barracuda is timeless and nothing can replace it.

I'm surprised it is that low.

I had a 1971 Dodge Challenger Deputy that had disk brakes

If it was a /6, 1.7% had PDB; V-8, 5.6%.
