My Dad & His 1969 Barracuda - He’s Owned this Car for Over 53 Years🚙🙂

[@mcode440]

God Bless that man and his machine.

[@billysbikesbrews7183]

Thank You 🙏 As of this moment I’m driving to see my Dad 🙂 I was thinking of doing a update video 🎥🚙

[@sunset-eq7rf]

In my opinion, the history that this car has adds to its value. This car was very much enjoyed. A daily commuter, weekend drag racer and a winter tower. This car has more then served it's purpose and has the right to look like it is on it's last breath, yet it looks like it just came out of the factory. This is an incredible story. Kudos to your father for keeping this gem so well preserved.

[@billysbikesbrews7183]

Thank You 🙂.. I agree the story behind the Barracuda.. funny thing in February my 88 year old Dad & I we were Snowmobiling in Vermont.. you should check out video 😁

[@architypeone8646]

Mopar or no car! Your dad is real hard core! He's right about the 340....they didn't call it the "Giant Killer" for nothin'. That's a family heirloom.

[@billysbikesbrews7183]

It’s a Special Car 🚙😎 Thanks for Watching 🙂

[@1967davethewave]

Given the rust that usually happens around Mass that is quite a feat to keep that car that clean. That is one beautiful car and your dad is an awesome guy. Not many left like him anymore.

I Agree 🙂 He’s Special ❤️

I'm the proud owner of a 1968 Barracuda Notch back......! 9 years now and in the reassembly of a COMPLETE rebuild (restomod). What a great story and your father is a treasure! Spend every second you can with him!

This is a great car and cool story,- I really believe that the cuda with a 340 is underrated, because I was surprised with my 69/318 Barracuda, not bad in compare to my 68 charger R/T

[@billysbikesbrews7183]

It is a Great Car.. I appreciated that you watched.. Thanks 🙂

[@robertdunbar5854]

Did not know they made a notch back 440 in 69 ! I had a fastback forest green 440 though high-school and later. Had so much fun with that car. Had to sell it in the mid 80s. Still have the original Carter carb from it. Good times there. Thanks

I owned and built into a bracket drag racer a ‘69 Barracuda notchback in B-7 blue and a black top. Small block screamed to an 11.70 best et. Sold it. Miss it. Lucky man to have this cool car. Enjoy.

[@jimmybrown8375]

Great video! Mom bought a 69 notch back cuda, it was also powder blue. Only had slant 6 but it had the mid body stripes. It looked fast. To this day I have cudas in my garage. The 68 has a 383 4sp. Very fun to drive.

[@billysbikesbrews7183]

Awesome.. we are a Mopar Family.. my Dad has had One Barracuda.. I have had 3 Mopar’s my first was in 1978 a lime green 71 Roadrunner 340.. at 17 years old.. a week after I bought it.. I was racing it.. at New England Dragway.. my second was a Dodge Dart GTS 318 deceivingly fast.. my last is the one you saw in video.. a 71 Roadrunner 383.. a sweet Machine 😎

[@a-body-guy815]

@@billysbikesbrews7183 it wasnt a 68 gts 318 sir it was a 68 gts 340 sunfire yellow black stripe numbers matching 340 that ran 14.40s with a blown accelerator pump with 3.23s :)

[@billburke7352]

Love this car. I had one and miss it awful

Thanks for posting this video, great tribute to your Dad, my late brother owned the same barracuda with a 340 and I had a 73 roadrunner with a 340 4 barrel back in the Marine corp in 1978 although my favorite is the 71 road runner cheers!

Don’t know if, or how often you slide back by to read comments. Salute. I have the ‘67 fastback my Dad bought new. 8 years old when I slid into the backseat for the first time. A restomod now. Lots of memories both old and newer with it. We are stewards of history. No reason mine, and his won’t keep making memories on into the future.

[@billysbikesbrews7183]

I read ever Comment.. I usually get a notification.. 67 Sweet 😁. Last year I made a couple short videos check them out.. I hope to make a couple this summer.. 55 years and counting.. my Dad will be 90 years old in December 🎉😎

It's hard to get ahold of anyone these days. I am sure he was around my car I bought from Oak Tree Racing that originally was Dame Brothers Racing 1970 Cuda Running On Empty. All I can say is thanks to people like you Dad that we still have the cars and memories! Good day Sir.

My father still owns his 1969 Corvette he ordered in 68. Pretty cool to see your dad's car. I don't think there are a lot of these one owner cars left. And in 25 years or so there won't be any left. I see your vid is a couple years old now. Hopefully your dad and the car are still doing well. Thank you for uploading this vid.

@@billysbikesbrews7183 Good to hear.

[@geralddrury4829]

Wonderful! Really enjoyed this video! I lived up there from 72 to 79 in Baldwinville. Sorry your Dad is wrong, My 69 383S fastback is more powerful and very similar! Non the less he is a "Pistol" and obviously was a good driver! The 'Cuda 340/383 and the 440 'Cuda in either fastback or Notch was a stripped down version with a little less weight and comfort, buckets and console were optional and generally pushed the buyer to the Formula "S". The 'Cuda was marketed for just what your Dad put it through!

[@billysbikesbrews7183]

My Dad is very Smart.. I’m not telling him he’s wrong 😁.. Thanks for Watching..

[@glennhelm9525]

Great video, love the cah.😊 I had a '68 fast back, 318It didn't scare anyone but I really liked the fold down rear seat, for uh, varipus reasons. Very reliable. I agree the 340 was a great motor. I almost bouhgt a 69 Dart GT 340. Oh my it was fast with the 4 spd. I couldn't swing the insurance cost in L.A.
