I’ve had a few inquiries this past week about some of the Internet activity that follows this Project. Someone had asked why it brings a “trail of destruction” wherever it’s discussed? The only response I can offer is that you would have to ask those people who make it a “trail of destruction” as to why they continue to do so. I can’t explain why these mindless individuals choose to let something unrelated to their life, take such a personal precedence with them. There have been no falsehoods or comments conveyed anywhere that have not been 100% factual in the expression of this build or the manner in which it has been presented.
We set out to construct a vehicle that was never built by the Factory. Along the way, we learned about an Automotive Journalist/Historian named Roger Johnson who claimed to have seen a red, 1970 4 Door Concept Barracuda while working at the Chrysler Headquarters in 1969. We decided to build this Project to mimic the vehicle he claims to have witnessed. That’s the complete story in a nutshell.
Throughout the build process, some of the design characteristics of the car has changed. The story/information about the Gentlemen who claim that Chrysler built these 4 Door Concepts has not. I have conveyed and shared their information exactly the way they presented it to me. After numerous conversations with Roger Johnson and Larry Saunders about the topic, I personally believe their information to be true. Passing along their commentary about this topic does not constitute “deception” of any kind. I still proudly stand by my statements made at the earlier stages of this project.
Some of you know that ECS is involved with building a “ONE of a KIND” Plymouth Concept Vehicle that involves both Chrysler and the DMV. We are assembling an OE type Four Door 1970 Plymouth Cuda. The concept was taken from the ONLY red vehicle that was actually built (and later destroyed) by Chrysler in 1969. We will be covering the process and hope that everyone will join in the pictorial journey as things progress.
For those who continue to make erroneous and delusional comments about this project, this picture might help in answering your questions.
