Deputy models

Hey fellas... I wanted to pick a few brains around here, regarding the JL23/21 Deputy Coupes...Availible with any motor up to the 383-4v, minus the "J" code 340 (in 1970). Rear Quarter windows were fixed, and had only white or black Barracuda seats in it correct? Can anyone tell me what I forgot...
Thanks!

True. Accurate information on the A93 cars is hard to find too, that just makes it harder. :(

The original intent appears to have them enter production with JL23 VIN prefixes, but intead they were released as JH23 cars with the A93 code to note that they were coupes. I would love to see some paperwork noting the change. :nod:

T/Ake care,

So the next question is....

If they sometimes got coloured interiors did that also get Challenger type seat frames and vinyl???

I have heard that the uphostery is actually different than the normal Barracuda stuff, I only know of one car so far that still has the original interior, and the owner is working out of the country so he can not get good photos of it for me. :(

I am keeping my eyes out for others though, when it comes to the A93 cars there are more questions than anwers at this point.

T/Ake care,
