    2015 SRT Barracuda- who is saving up for one?

    Looks like the bastard offspring of a Nissan 350z and a Mitsubishi Eclipse. With that said, my dream job is still taking all new vehicles through their paces and seeing how they perform.....how/where do I apply to be a "test pilot?" Seriously....trucks, cars, bikes....I can break them all for...

    I bought my wife a 75' Trans Am and long story short....she fell in love with Geof's Black Barracuda he had for sale....so I bought her that one and am going to sell the Trans Am in the spring. From This to This.....I think she made the right choice. LOL. :)

    Ebay seller stole my picture

    I looked through a number of the plymouth, dodge, and chrysler magnets he has and I think he has a view of our members Darts and Barracudas on there.

    That is an amazing piece of history.

    Hidden VIN's?

    Most people here do not want to help somebody do something illegal, and yes, you're initial post was somewhat suspicious. It's like calling up a bank and asking if they have hidden camaras and motion detectors. With that said, it sounds like you were too trusting of the original sellers. At...

    classic insurance help needed

    I have $15000 on the 66' Barracuda and $9000 on the 71' Scamp (guaranteed value) and I paid around $300/yr (can't remember if it was more or less). The problem with Hagerty is that you're limited on how much/often you can drive the vehicle. Mine limits me to parades, car shows, club events...

    How to get this off

    I would use lacquer thinner and 0000 steel wool. Then wash in soapy water immediately.

    Anti-Theft Suggestions.

    Get yourself a really good insurance policy with a guaranteed minimum loss value. This might not be an optimal solution, but it covers more than just theft which is added peace of mind. Try not to worry about theft too much....the rabid opossum idea is pretty good though too, just don't forget...

    Brake lathe a good idea?

    x2 Rotors and Drums are pretty cheap anymore. My local store charges $12 to turn a drum or rotor and most of the new ones only cost $20ish. Also, it seems that the metal used in a lot of newer rotors is really soft and wear out quickly.

    Let's play, "How much do you think they're asking for this car?"

    Oneway71 had a 73' Duster with /6 and 3 speed with about 40k on it that he was selling for around $3000, but nobody wanted it. I would've, but was broke at the time and couldn't get any of my family interested enough to buy it. I think he decided to keep it. He's located in Ionia, which would...

    Let's play, "How much do you think they're asking for this car?"

    Oh, btw....I paid $4500 for my 71' Scamp (3 years ago) and $2500 for the 66' Barracuda (this year). So if they're asking more than either of those, they're crackheads.

    Let's play, "How much do you think they're asking for this car?"

    Come on now guys.....the parts alone are worth $700-1000. With that said, I'm going to wager they were asking $5-6000.

    sad news

    I hate that I'm just now seeing this. If your Father is anything like you, he must be one hell of a guy. Hope all is well with you, him, and her family. Take as much time as you need, everyone here understands. -Travis-

    More than two-timing......you forgot about Saara. Gotta say, I like the two-tone blue seats.

    Insurance Cost!?

    I'm 30 years old with good credit and I pay my insurance in full. One full year through Hagerty costs me $315 for (2) vehicles. The first is my 71' Scamp with a guaranteed value if totaled at $9000 and the second is my 66' Barracuda with a guaranteed value of $15000 if totaled. With that...

    Is this considered rude?

    Ask them how much money they made last year, what their religious beliefs are, or who they voted for and they'd probably get offended. It's pretty much the same thing. There are ways to ask without being rude. You could also just tell them that it costs about the same as building any other...

    WIW 1968 barracuda fastback

    I wasn't advocating parting it out, it's just without knowing the condition of all the little things this car could turn into a huge money pit costing many times more than the actual restored value, especially if Maxie doesn't have the skills to do all the work himself. And you're exactly...

    WIW 1968 barracuda fastback

    It needs quite a bit of work to restore. If you can do all the work yourself, you're ahead of the game. Otherwise you're going to spend ten grand in restoring it (minimum) for a car that is probably worth $13,000-16,000 when restored. Does it run, and why was it "parked"? I would hazard a...

    NOS price stupidity

    Your link has an extra "http" in it won't link to the ebay item you want people to see. By removing the extra so that it reads http://www.ebay.com/itm/MoPar...sories&vxp=mtr leads to an ebay page that states, "This listing () has been removed, or this item is not available."

    Not an a-body but your opinion on worth...

    4x4 in good running condition is worth $2500 in Michigan. Body looks stellar compared to what we see for the same money. We're lucky though, because we don't have inspections.

    Craigslist keychain score in my own town

    Nice. This is what I'm using for the Scamp. I picked it up on ebay for like $4 shipped. The 'cuda one is what I'm thinking about using for the 66' Barracuda because I found them for $3 shipped. I would prefer if I could find one that actually said Barracuda.

    Fire destory 5 mopars gtx dart swinger

    That sux. Last Saturday, I just redid my insurance with Hagerty....they really wanted me to put $15,000 on the 66' Barracuda, and $9,000 on the 71' Scamp. They told me that it was a guaranteed amount based on the years, market (previous sales) and condition so that if they were totaled, I...

    It is finished

    The seats look comfy, but a bit out of place in my opinion. I'd probably put a set of seat covers on them, but that's just me. Everything else looks pretty amazing.
