    So this ain't the end, I saw you again, today
    I had to turn my heart away
    Smiled like the sun, kisses for everyone
    And tales, it never fails
    You lying so low in the weeds
    I bet you gonna ambush me
    You'd have me down, down, down on my knees
    Now wouldn't you, BARRACUDA? Oh
    Back over time we were all trying for free
    You met the porpoise and me
    No right, no wrong you're selling a song, a name
    Whisper game
    If the real thing don't do the trick
    You better make up something quick
    You gonna burn, burn, burn, burn, burn to the wick
    OOOOO, BARRACUDA, oh yeah
    "Sell me, sell you" the porpoise said
    Dive down deep to save my head
    You, I think you got the blues too
    All that night and all the next
    Swam without looking back
    Made for the western pools, silly, silly fools
    If the real thing don't do the trick, no
    You better make up something quick
    You gonna burn, burn, burn, burn, burn it to the wick
    OOOO, BARRA-BARRACUDA!

    James, each and every week you pour your theatrical energy into this show (along with all the other content you're responsible for). Just want to take a moment to tell you I appreciate the energy and the value you create with each video. You are literally a vanguard of car culture for what you do. I know this was many years in the making and I can see in your eyes the drive and passion you have for what you do. All I gotta say is, keep going.

    When you mentioned the Valiant and the pushbutton automatic transmission, it reminded me of an event from my high school years. An acquaintance had a Valiant with the pushbuttons. Somehow he got the idea to rev the engine to incredible RPMs and punch the "Drive" button. Right there in the school's parking lot he revved that puppy up to what I'd like to say was around 6K, and pushed in 'Drive"... and *BAM* .. he dropped that tranny right then and there.... popped the crankshaft bearings and smoke was everywhere... it was a sight LOL

My first car was a 72 Barracuda, dad got it for me when I was 13 & in the hospital in Vidalia, Ga. back in 1981. He was an old school Dodge/Plymouth man & I was a muscle car freak with my brothers). Interior was near perfect but body was dinged up & had a 74 fender, no front valance & no engine/transmission. We built a 360 with a 727 & I absolutely loved that car. What I wouldn’t give to have that car today…maybe one day but since the big auction monsters started in the 90s E-bodies are priced in the stratosphere. Love y’all at Donut!

    Love your content! Y’all mentioned the Hurst Hemi equipped 68 Barracudas. But how could you do a whole bit on the Barracuda without mentioning the Hurst Hemi Under Glass?! Those things are so cool and fun to see in action! Felt so bad for the driver that had that mishap when he gave Jay Leno a ride and smacked up that car! I forget his name, but he was probably the foremost expert of driving those crazy machines. Leno gets in and wouldn’t you know it. They crash. I remember watching it in real-time. I couldn’t believe that happened! I seriously almost felt sick and depressed. Anyway... thanks gentlemen for your UA-cam videos!

    Someday, I will save enough money and get 1 GTO restomod for myself and have it shipped over to Dubai. It will be blue in color with white interior.

    My good friend. The term "Pony Car" was used the first time after the launch of the 1964 1/2 Ford Mustang, because the logo of the car was a horse. After that all competitors in the segment were included under the term " Pony Car". And as a matter of fact, the Barracuda is a Muscle Car. The only "Pony Cars" are Mustangs, Camaros and Firebirds mostly, because they're not normal small cars or family cars with big engines, which is the meaning of Muscle Car. So Pony Cars are 2+2 sporty coupes and everything starts with the launch of the Mustang. Alberto Diaz - Automotive Journalist for Wheeled Stories.
