'69 Barracuda T56 swap, floor, cross member
Haven't done anything major to my car for 12 years. So after pondering a manual trans swap for the last several years finally made the decision to go T56 Magnum. But to do the transmission swap I had to address some floor rust which has been there since the '80s. Back then I fixed all the water leaks and slapped some fiberglass on the rust holes in the floors and it stayed like that until now. Also had one small rust hole in torsion bar cross member so instead of patching decided to replace. Been at it a few weeks now so lets dive in.
Here is the car the last drive with the 727 automatic. Did one last big smoky burn out with the automatic trans and stroker engine combo. After this picture car was pulled in garage and taken apart.
