Original paint from 66,67 bought from junkyard and stored in garage since early 70's,purchased form friend talked to original builder and put back as built 383 tunnel 4spd, not sure on wheels just what I had. A friend found the original display sign in a garage around Indy HOW COOL IS THAT!

Big block, tunnel ram, and 4-speed; that is awesome!
 
my 65 Barracuda formula S has been my daily driver since 1972 and still going. Upgraded the ignition, charging ,added Kelsey hayes disk brakes, and more upgrades to come. Bought it in Virginia, drove it cross country to San Francisco CA. and now we're in Reno Nv.

Actually around here within a bout 100 miles there is at least 4 others. I did own another white Barracuda (273 Auto) but had to sell it at the time I had nowhere to store it as I lost my rental garage.

This one is from the Red Deer area.

Very nice car! I really like the sign hanging from your hood for car shows. Great Idea. I might look into doing that!
 
I have my grandmothers 65 in the garage. about 60% to drivable. Soon as it cools down some I hope to finish it over the winter
 
I have a 65 that started life as a factory /6 4 speed. replaced with a 273 I bored and rebuilt. On the road but being painted right now.
 
Awesome Guys. Send some pictures when you can.
 
Mine is a dark gold 273 2 barrel 4 speed 7.25 rear end. Getting a 66 273/235 with the original 4 speed and a later 8.75 with a 3.23 SG then it's going to the Netherlands to my oldest son who lives there - it's his inheritance and he's already said it will get driven only on nice sunny days!
 
That's awesome. How are you feeling 65 Dartman?

LOL! Not too bad considering we were on the move for over 2 weeks in Paris, London, Amsterdam (visiting oldest son who is getting the Barracuda) and finally to Oslo. Got over jet lag pretty quick! Now I gotta get cracking on the 65 wagon!
 
65 Cuda ...One here, I just picked mine up a little over a week ago, still needs alot of work, but eventually I will git-R-done ...lol

Had my barracuda 14 years now. I'm now 31. Its 1965 with a built 273 Hurst 4sd. Currently running a 1974 edelbrock tunnel ram with twin holleys, built by me full length 1-3/4 headers into 3" pipes with flowmaster muffs. Got a build 8.25 4:56 geared 29spl axles waiting time to mini tub and then throw in. Going for 12s with probably to high of hopes for a high 11 second run.

Don't have current pic with headers on yet or battery relocated to trunk. I'm in Washington state . I rarely see 64/65s lots of 66s around my area though

I've got 1 '65. It's all apart but should look like the shney red ones already pictured. I also know three others were cut up and/or parted for mine if that counts..lol.
 
Some really great looking cars. Can hardly wait to have mine on the road. Thanks everyone for posting!
 
Here is my 65 after a little spring cleaning earlier this year. It is a 273 auto.

Currently driving the silver Formula S. It's a 4 speed, factory A/C car from out west.
Don't have the white Formula S anymore. It was a bare bones car with just the S package, racing stripes and radio as options.
