I agree with the improvements! I kicked myself from day one for not cleaning and painting that radiator I guess I was so excited to get it up that I just checked out! But I agree it's the most noticeable thing that sticks out. I can't believe how fast it got dirty and not so shiny looking. There is part of the block wear the paint looks thin alt re any and the pretty silver manifolds have turned to a burnt rust color already! And it's just dirty looking overall. Im gonna clean it best i can and repaint some spots on the block. And paint that radiator! Hopefully by next year I'll have a new be cool or griffin in there instead of that factree one!

I think you've done a great job with your car and came a long way... And shown some serious perseverance along the way... my car has done many many changes over the years now. what's nice is now that you have the car done once and everything has nice clean bolts and so forth it's easy to take a few things apart and we go through stuff. It's not like that first push just trying to get things running.. now you can take your time and make the small improvements...
Thank you for bringing us along on that incredible journey with your car I'm sure it will never end like always LOL...

Well,

Today is another issue.

I purchased my 69 383s for $600 in 1984 off a used car lot. It was sad looking to me but, a full drive off the lot car and knew it had potential. I was still in shock from loosing my 69 383 4spd Bee to a fire. Time heals all!

I bought my 67 383/4spd car in '76 from a single mom - her daily driver - for $650. Gas/insurance crunch meant these cars were being given away.

hi Shayne....

i sent the seller of the $8500 Barracuda a message last night and he sent me a message today saying it was still available. if you are interested, i would go to the facebook ad and send him a message telling him you are interested. now, i have NO IDEA if this guy or this ad is legitimate so be careful if you go forward with a purchase. if you do want to buy the car, draw up a simple sales contract with his name and address and send him a small deposit - like $100.00 with conditions that you will set up final payment conditions after he sends you back a signed contract. make sure you put in the contract that all the parts shown in the facebook ad goes with the car and that the car will be sold in the condition it is shown in that ad. that way you have his name and address and an enforceable contract if he tries to back out and the conditions of the sale are spelled out in writing. i don't know what the title situation is with this car but you need to make sure the car does have a title IN HIS NAME. you might even ask him to send you a copy of the title just to make sure. if you have further questions on advice on how to do this sale, message me here on FABO.
