1966 Plymouth Barracuda Formula S - Restoration

Haven't updated in a while - trim is all removed, only chrome is the vent windows on the door. Patched a couple of small bubbling spots on the passenger side door, welded up the passenger side chrysler emblem. Ended up botching the removal of the drivers side drip rail (followed some bad advice, ignored it and removed the pass side with no warping), but I'll deal with it. No luck finding anyone to paint yet - at this point, I'm leaning towards just finding a regular shop to block and paint it - I've done all of the trim removal, not much more left to do than get a good surface to paint and do it. Can't find anyone locally with any interest/availability. One shop refused because I did too much already - guess they just want the shop hours.

Got the engine back from the shop. Used egge 0.030 oversize hipo pistons, cleaned up everything .. polished and mic'd the crankshaft, all std. Surfaced the block, cut 0.010 off the top. Had the cam degreed. Had 0.010 cut off the intake sides and head surfaces. Turns out the heads had valve guides, guess its been reworked before. The shop put in CC 986 springs - seems a little stiff - but I'm going to rely on their experience. Just got the reworked heads on today ... used mahle gaskets, coated with copper coat. Went with an E4 isky cam and isky solid lifter replacements - things aren't as cheap as they used to be. I don't plan on installing lifters/intake and finishing up the engine until I get the body work done so I have a better timeframe for when I might be able to do the cam break in.
