Another Mopar Off My Bucket List - Barracuda Fastback
After measuring for a proper driveshaft loop I realized that the seat brackets would need to be fabbed at the same time. I started out by cutting & notching tubing to use as the risers. Later on I'll make a top plate that will act as a base to mount the seat to.
It got too late in the day to go back to the weld shop to buy more steel. I spent some time stripping the rest of the paint off of the front spoiler. I'll have to finish the rest of the fiberglass repairs soon. Before I lay any more glass on the front spoiler I do need to make a new body latch. The old one had a rod that protruded through just below the grill. It seemed pretty flimsy and I want one that will open quickly but will be sturdy enough that I won't be worried about the body flying open at the track.
