Early A interest.

I will say it seems like there's more people Reviving these early a cars recently. I think that's totally awesome
Including myself.
When I got my 65 convertible Dart Project 4speed Magnum swap last year, at the time didnt think I'd be into it like 67 up cars.It's been growing on me.
And most parts arent being reproduced
makes it even more unique.

Nice job FABO members.

I've had my 66 Barracuda for about oh 30 years now. 3k miles on it because it never quite sat right on me. When I was getting a divorce I started on the "i'm selling that car" route.
While trying to get ready for Carlisle- a female I met just before said she would give me a hand to get it ready for sale. While working on it she told me how "cool" it was and I should not sell it because it would be awesome. Well almost ten years later I just married that female and never sold it. I have a new appreciation for the car and the last 2 years have spent more time and money on it than I care to want to say.

Also, they are becoming more popular because lets face it the 67-76 cars are getting harder to come by and so early A's are gaining in popularity.
As for My 72' 340 4 speed Demon... I hate driving it because everyone is telling me when I stop, what to build it as and or want to race me. I cannot take it out for a causal drive because of it. The Barracuda on the other hand...everyone tells me of their story of a Valiant they owned or a slant six they had and what they put it thru. All good vibes man. Never anything bad. Glad I kept the car. Many many more memories to be had in her.
