YOUNG GUNS! Sign In and WIN
Hello, I'm Tony, I'll be turning 18 in december(next month!). Right now Im working on a 1967 Barracuda Fastback that i bought about 3 or four months ago with all the money i earned delivering pizza with my little VW that i bought in January 2009 with saved up money. My Dad got me into mopars when i was younger, he always had a dodge dart in the driveway and now i bought a 1967 Plymouth Barracuda. Any way i'm doind a full on restoration with this barracuda its going to end up as a street car with improved handeling. Im planning on performance sway bars front and rear and also performance leaf springs and torsion bars. Im going to base this car on the 1973-1976 A body suspension (k member, disc brakes, 8 1/4 rear Big Bolt Pattern etc....) I might end up doing a 5.9 360 engine or i can go with a 318 whatever comes my way until i can afford a crate engine or a fully rebuilt smallblock. Right now im in Barber school so I only get a chance to work on the car on the weekends when i have freetime but the project is coming along great! Heres the car so far if you need any more information please reply!
Right now im working on stripping the metal treating the rust then primering it all before i start any welding.
The car is a 6 cylinder with a 904, I'm the third owner 8)
FLINSTONE MOBILE lol theres no rust on the frames though.
PRIMER!
I found an 8 1/4 rear at the auto salvage in the rear end pile it was underneath a bunch of heavy duty dana truck axles i lifted it out and got it for $200!
