... a resto-mod project - finally on the road ...

[mopar66]

I have been working in my garage on my 1966 Barracuda for 10 years - started off with only a rolling (empty) chassis. Did a mild buildup on a 318, 904 trans (reverse/manual valve body), 8 3/4" rear end (3:73 gears). All new EVERYTHING ... total rewire, interior, ect... not all 'factory correct' - but the way I wanted it to look just for my enjoyment. I thoroughly enjoy driving my project on the road now - just cruising around with my wife - well worth all my work.

Looks great, how about some interior pics.

Thanks guys - I'll snap/post some interior pics tonight. It's all functional, but I'll be working on some more detail work on my interior over the winter.

Nice work! What master cylinder are you using, disc or drum brakes? 65'

You are way way WAYYYYYyyyyyyyy ahead of me!!

 

[mopar66]

Don't worry man - keep plugging.
There were several times during the looooong ten years of my build that i doubted I'd make it - but you get there eventually.

 

[Murray]

That's the way to build them- for your own enjoyment!

 

[mopar66]

Totally agree Murray - and I am enjoying just talking projects to the other people at the 'cruise-ins' ... good stuff!

 

[cudascott]

cudascott :: I am retiring and moving to the East Nashville area to be close to my three sons who live there - will finally have the time to finish the detail work of my interior!

 

[mopar66]

per Don K request - some interior pics :: I tried to keep the original 'vibe' of the car while upgrading the wiring/gauges/dash/seats,etc... still have work to do to complete it - a work in progress.
