RE: DVAP 64 Barracuda

[Dan McCormack <mcwheels@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yeah but it took about 6 hours to figure it out. At least the old man got it
right that the difference between the 64 and 65 Barracudas is that the 64
has pushbuttons and the 65 is a floor shift. He also had it right that the
Barracuda came out about 2 weeks before the Mustang.

Speaking of mistakes on reality shows, last year they bought a 39 Plymouth
coupe on American Pickers. Only it was a 1940 Plymouth not a 39.

Oh, I also forgot, and surprised no one has mentioned it. The 'Cuda
they were working on had a pushbutton transmission, and no one in the
shop had ever seen it before. Needless to say, hilarity ensued. One
guy swore up and down the entire thing was electronic, but they got it
figured out after getting under the dash and spotting the obvious
cable and mechanism.
