The Red 65 Barracuda is owned by
Yvonne Owens of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. She is the
third owner of this car and the last owner had it for 29 years.
It is all stock with a 273 2bbl and console automatic. This car
has been a centerfold, (together with her husband's 65) in a national
old car magazine. Yvonne is also the owner of a 71 Charger SE with a
383 Magnum with a slapstik 727.
Ya gotta like a wife like that.
Dave Owens of Victoria, British
Columbia, Canada is the second owner of this 273 Commando car. I
bought it from the original owner and have a letter where he states
that the car came originally with a speedometer that read in
Kilometers. This indicated that the car probably was destined
for overseas. He had it replaced a couple of days after
purchase. October 2000 is when I was able to locate the proper
speedometer in Denmark. A fine gentleman over there located one
and we arranged shipment to Canada. Total cost, landed in
Canada, cdn $42.03. That is probably as inexpensive as the
original one.
Victoria, British Columbia, Canada is
