RCR is a "parody" car review site based out of PA, but did a nice review of my 66 Barracuda. This occurred in October last year in Portland. The host is currently restoring a 60 Ford Falcon and was very interested in my car.

Was a good experience and I would do it again.
 
At the 6:08 mark, there is a shot of the front suspension. Do you have something special up there? I see rubber boots.
 
Yes, What a great video. Thanks for sharing. Is that a Commando 273 under the hood? Curious about the front suspension also. tmm
 
at 6:08, he had the undercarriage of a pickup from the previous week. I think it was a mistake there.

Front suspension has newer KYB front shocks and new bushings. Rear suspension has an extra leaf and air shocks.

Was originally a 2bbl V8 car, has the formula S intake and a holley 600 CFM carb. Its been bored about .30 over.

Thanks for the nice comments!
 
Awesome video and great coverage of the 66!! Thanks for sharing. The guy was funny as all get out toward the end.

And...you have a very fine 66 Barracuda there!!
 
Thank you!. Really all credit goes to my Dad who bought it new. I bought it from him last summer.
 
Here is a POV video of the same review.... [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsAghLjYsHo"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsAghLjYsHo[/ame]
 
My co worker turned me onto your Barracuda video and you have a very nice Barracuda. I like how the video person talked about the time period of the car.
 
Its a roll of the dice on his videos. Some of them can be quite "off-kilter" and dirty, but with mine, I think he did a nice one. Thanks for the comments about my car. I try and drive it any chance I get.
