68 Barracuda 383 4 spd for sale

Are you sure? Ok I'll be honest, here goes...


What turned me off:

(1) I would have to repaint it right away, so what you claim as a selling point is actually a detractor for me. The more unique and crazy you get with the paint and graphics, the more people you alienate.

(2) 12.80 from a built 383 seems a bit slow, or is it a low compression stock engine? Either way...I could throw a completely stock 383 hp shortblock in and be running 12.50s. But there are some nice pieces there that are worth money...so I don't know. I feel like I would have to replace the engine right away.

(3) $15k is a bit high considering what else you can get for that much these days. You mentioned asking $25k if it was a 383-S car...theres a '69 383 4 speed car advertised here for $6.5k, very nice body but needs drivetrain. Look on racingjunk.com - tons of clean, good running 11 and 10 second cars for around $10-12k.
