I feel like a real car guy now - i bought a Rotisserie

Sorry - doesn't count unless you built it in a fit of anger after rolling around on the ground one too many times. . (Joking of course)

We're all jealous... You have 4 fast backs
I only have one.


LOL! ... well, i'm pretty happy with my car "selection." i always liked the fastback 67-69 Barracudas the best having had an almost new one in 1970. i think i've covered the basis with these cars as the restored 68 is a 340 4 speed; the other 68 is a complete parts car from Florida in very nice shape, but was a 340 auto car; one 69 is an original 383 4 speed and the other 69 is the M-Code 440 car that i am putting a 4 speed in. it will be the only "original" M-Code cuda with a 4 speed that i know of. i have a thing for shifting gears.

i'm going to post some pics of another "deal" that i ran across - here in the Pittsburgh area of all things - i picked up a nice 69 833 4 speed out of a 69 340 Swinger and the same guy had a big block bell housing with the fork, z-bar, rubber cover and flywheel cover. these parts are going in the m car. i now have a date correct hp 440; the 833 4 speed; the BB bell housing; and the 68 Florida car was a factory S car so it has the 8 3/4 axle in the back, and i have a 3:91 "chunk" sitting on the floor beside the car. now with the Rotisserie i just got from Eastland, i can put the m car on it and start bolting parts to it. i would really like to drive this car this summer as i think a 440 4 speed m-code fastback cuda with a 3:91 rear gear will be "tons of fun" - and probably a threat to my Pennsylvania driver's license.
