Hello folks,
My names Ian and I live in the North East of England,
I'm 53 years of age....and a year ago I got my first Mopar !!
I bought a 1967 Plymouth Barracuda notchback, it was / is a rolling shell... Not the most expensive in the world....under 5k...in pounds not dollar bills.
It was imported here over 15 years ago and was brought in from Ramona , California. It was an ex Drag race , really stripped down....I think the vultures done this ...lol
I only know that when it came over in the UK it initially had a 440 six pack ..but was originally a 273 Commando and had a 8.75 rear end ..all welded up for the strip.
I've been really busy with work so haven't done that much to it, I never wanted the car to be a " money pit " as I'm not a rich man , never will be I guess.....I want a car to enjoy, and for my boys to help me with ..and spend some quality time with but
at this moment I'm at a " crossroads "and not sure which way to do the car....hence I joined here....plans and ideas change ,this is definitely Not a restoration job , more of a Rat rod if anything !
Mad Max meets patina look via a back garden/ yard of a working class Family guy ! posted some pics too , just to get started, Anyway ....I'm Ian and pleased to be here , cheers and Beers from old England
