Here's a couple I just completed and some still in progress. Just getting back into model building after taking MANY years off.

Don't think I'll be putting the bike away for a few more weeks. It's my only transportation until I can find a winter beater!

You are correct. They are very hard to find and expensive, but the seller is describing them as "very nice". That is what irritated me.

If they are just the plain '68 inserts (not Formula-S), I've seen nice sets sell for around $100.

AMEN BROTHER!! Having the build sheet is a huge bonus for someone who might want to completely restore the car (hopefully you can find the fender tag also), but I would lean more toward either a resto-mod or a drag car. A couple grand is probably all you should expect in that condition. Good luck.

Many more factors will determine the value of your Barracuda. Any rust issues, like frame, quarters, fenders, floors... etc? Chrome trim pieces on these cars are hard to find, is it ALL there?... and condition. Build sheet?... Fender tag?... If you could post some pictures that will help a lot.

My new toy.... 1986 Yamaha FZX 700 FAZER. 12k original miles, cost $2100.00.:D

Thats my old car!! Real Formula-S 340 4 speed. Sold it back in '93 for a down payment on our first house.:banghead:

They are made of thin aluminum that got damaged very easily, especially the part under the trunk lock that gets mangled by bashing your keys into them when opening the trunk.

Sounds to me like the glass isn't attached to the window regulators. Pull the inside panels off to get a better look at whats going on in there.
