Theres no such thing as a ski platform for a Barracuda. Correct Craft didnt start adding platforms to their boats until 1978. A non-original one could be added, but I would advise against it. Few things ruin the lines of a classic boat worse than a platform.
The late 60's pylons are extremely difficult to come by- dont expect an overwhelming response on that one! I cant remember the last one Ive seen available- it has been several years. You would most likely be better off fabricating one yourself. Someone should be able to supply you with the proper dimensions if you want to go that route.

I have 2 (neither are for sale) that are out of the boats and can send measurements or pictures if you want to fab one. One is straight bronze rod that rides in a steel tube with the ring and finger welded on the bronze rod. The other is the heavy aluminum tube, bent, with a steel post and ring/finger inserted in each end.
