65 Barracuda Potential Project

Not an S car.

I believe it was damaged by the owners cousin a long time ago. It was repaired and then repainted. That is when the engine was removed and never put back in/ran/ drove again.

The foot well areas will need some patches but other than that is looks solid.

The frame was solid front to back.

not an S car would be a HARD pass for me unless i was scooping it as a parts car, and even then considering it's missing **** that makes it valuable-- namely the big ticket stuff like a motor and trans and a 8.75 rear my offer would be scrap value.

people don't just take motors out of cars for no reason. especially if they've just repaired and repainted them. that don't pass the sniff test to me.

Update on the car

I messaged the seller and informed them that I am going to have to pull my offer. They respond by telling me that their father refused to take anything less than $800 for the car so :thumbsup:

So the search continues for a 65 or 66 commando barracuda.

you dodged a bullet on that one hombre. let the dreamers keep that pile and you keep that dough in your pocket till something better-- MUCH better rolls along.
