I’m shocked I even got a picture this good with how little time I had to pull my phone out.

‘71 Barracuda, not a ‘Cuda. The ‘Cuda had fender “vents”, while the Barracuda did not.

Wait those are seriously different? I though ‘Cuda was just a nickname.

‘Cuda started as a trim/performance package on the ‘69 A-body Barracuda. For the E-body Barracuda of the ‘70s, Chrysler used the ‘Cuda designation for the high performance version. There was also a more luxurious option for the E-body, called the Gran Coupe.
Here’s some pages from the ‘71 sales brochure with more information. (It’s a little hard to see the “gills” on the ‘Cuda in the first picture.)
