BARRACUDA

Barracuda - the fish, the car, the song, the ride, the gun, the hockey team, the airplane, the bicycles, the swim wear, and I am sure there are more......

I have only seen these at an aquarium

The Hurst Hemi Under Glass circa 1965. I saw this in Indianapolis at the Nationals.

Note the rear bumper rockers that allowed all four wheels to get off of the track!

A great song by Heart

I cannot find a picture of the Barracuda ride, but it was a very popular attraction at the Elkhart County Fair back in the day - rode around fast in wavy circles with the music blasting.

Barracuda guns - don't own any 😆
