1973 Barracuda's

There were few visible differences between 1972 and 1973 Barracudas: the side marker light positions were slightly changed, a 'Cuda body-side stripe had a flat bottom edge, and there were impact-absorbing black rubber bumper guards. The latter didn't detract much from the lines of the original thin-line bumpers. But then, they didn't offer much extra protection either, except in head (or tail-) on situations.

This was a V8-only series this year with the 318 as the standard engine in both the Barracuda and 'Cuda models and a detuned 340--in its final year--optional in both models. Included with the 340 was a non-functional twin scoop hood whether the engine was installed in the Barracuda or 'Cuda. It could also could be ordered with a flat black pattern treatment.

Bucket seats were standard this year. A console and the Rallye Cluster instrument panel remained optionally available. Standard 'Cuda features were the scooped hood, heavy duty suspension, large tires, and a 7-blade Torquefan. But if you ordered a 340 in your base Barracuda, you'd also get these features. It seems only 'Cudas got a body color grille and a black rear valence panel, and, if you wanted all the high-performance appearance features and suspension with a 318 engine, you could get them only if you ordered a 'Cuda.
