Hello FABO members. I have been lurking around and taking mental notes to store in my head. I have acquired a 1966 Barracuda that is in need of some serious help! Nothing I cannot handle though.

I am a technician for a Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram dealer and know my way around a vehicle very well. Only plans set in stone is obviously repairing all this rotted out sheet metal and dropping in a 3G Hemi. Have a 5.7 short block and 09+ Eagle heads prepped and ready to go at work.

Anyways, here are some pictures. Some think I bit off more than I should have but I had to save this from the crusher!




Started stripping her down




I will be starting a thread in the Restoration section to show my progress as I go along.
 
Wow, looks like a solid car. Welcome and you will love FABO, best mopar site, period!
My first Cuda was a 66 and I never should have let it get it away.

Do you own a buffer as it looks like that will buff up nice! Welcome to the BEST mopar site.
 
Welcome! ALL projects are more then a hand full. Looks solid to me, but in New England every car south of CT looks solid to me. Good luck have fun!
 
Thanks for the warm welcome guys!

LOL at the buffer! Got a good start on ripping out the floor board. Passenger side is out.
 
Hey guys, got a little progress ripping out the floor board. I see that it is pretty difficult to find sheet metal for the early a-bodies. I see Layson's Restoration carries a lot of what I need but there are so many various reviews, many good and many bad. Are there any other sources I can find quarter patches?

Anywho, here are some pics of the floor board mostly out. Just a little left by firewall and in the rear where it joins under the rear seat.





Still a long ways to go.....
