Now that I've got the 65 Dart in order I'm ready to start thinking about the next car. I thought I'd just throw this out there for any members that are thinking about selling a 68/69 Barracuda. The intention is to make a nice reliable mostly original driver. I'm not making a hotrod. I'm intending to get close to a car I previously owned.
Price depends on car and condition.
>>>>Must Haves/Can't haves.
-Must be 68/69 Fastback.-
-No heavily modified anything. The more original the better. Relatively faithful older or newer restoration okay.
-A driver that goes and stops. No rollers. Big projects. Rust buckets.
-No non factory weird paint
-Must have fender tag, numbers matching and correct vin.
-Automatic Trans
-If this car is far away from me, and I can't personally inspect, the seller must be willing to allow a third party inspection and a third party escrow service for everyone's safety and work with me to get the car shipped. Of course I'll pay for all that.
>>>>Would really like
-318 2 barrel
-Console Shift
>>>>Nice to haves
-Black interior
-Slick back (vinyl top)
-Gold/Bronze exterior paint
-Factory racing stripes
Again. This car will be thoroughly inspected for previous damage and rust. These are old things so I don't expect perfection but let's please not waste anyone's time trying to pass a sow's ear as a silk purse. I'm perfectly fine with fixing some stuff but I'm looking to start with a good solid car.
Here's a pic of my old car for reference.
Thanks!
