Man there is a TON of automotive history there; have to admit, that’s the first ‘Cuda fastback I have ever seen.

______________________________

The Plymouth Barracuda was a two-door automobile manufactured by Plymouth from the 1964 to 1974 model years.

The first-generation Barracuda, a hardtop fastback, was based on the A-body platform (shared with the Valiant). The first generation car featured distinctive wraparound back glass and was marketed from 1964 to 1966.

The second-generation Barracuda, built from 1967 to 1969, though still Valiant-based, was heavily redesigned. Body designs were now available in fastback, hardtop coupé, and convertible versions.

The third generation, offered from 1970 to 1974, was no longer based on the A-body, but on the Chrysler E-body. The completely new design was similar to the Dodge Challenger and available in hardtop and convertible body styles. The Barracuda was discontinued after the 1974 model year.

The Cuda and Challenger were pretty much the same car. It's the first generation bubble back window Cudas that are rare 1964-1966. The fast back style are the most common ones.
