Hats off to you or any man with that much ambition. Without looking at your profile I assume you're quite a bit younger/healthier than me. I remember the day when no challenge was too great.
If and when the day comes that you need some advise or just inspiration FABO will be here for you.
Cheers

Hey ,

Thanks for refering me to this site.

That Pic of me up top doesn't do me justice!

Do you think you can tell me how to modify my images so that I can post pics too? I try and ad images, but it says they are too big.

PS. to those that don't know...that cuda was mine

I'm glad it is getting done right

 

[440valiant]

hey phil,

you need to post some pics of your collection

I'll show you a link on BBD on how to post pics

http://www.bigblockdart.com/index.php/topic,23465.0.html

show us your collection!

 

[mrtires24]

I posted more on my other forum titled "i'm new here, and I need parts too"

I have more pics of this car their, and some pics of my other cars. But not all.

 

[mopar1962]

heck, you look great blending in with the barracuda perfectly hahahaa, just kidding, day by day and you will have a nice ride

 

[mopar1962]

I got the 2 or 4 piston discs from a 67 barracuda when you need them friend,and all related parts to go with them. I cant recall what they are as I got too many parts out in the garage to find them, but they were specific only on the 67 barracudas and stop on a dime, have new factory bendix pads to go with them also.

 

[440valiant]

nice, that would be awesome

how much??

 

[mrtires24]

Hey Rylan, Hows the car coming? any changes since the last pics?

Listen, Post a wanted ad for that part on you rear end that you need. You should be able to get it here for cheap. There are alot of people here that are a BIG help.

Phil

hey Phil,

no changes for the past month, as i have moved the barracuda down to my grandpa's for a while. Right now im putting every penny i own on paying for things for the Riviera, i need to get it repainted and a few other things.

Then once i sell it im going to go crazy on the cuda. ( I wanna track down a hemi).

Remember if you need your car painted i work at a bodyshop.

 

[mrtires24]

a hemi...thats nuts.

I have never had one or even been in a hemi car. too cool if you can find one. I am hoping to have the duster running near the end of this month...if all goes well, I'll come out to take you for a rip this summer

That would be so cool,

That would be sweet to come to my school and do a huge burnout, as there's lots of ricers that think there car is " The best and fastest racing car on the road"

Sweet

[440valiant]

well i would get like to tell everyone that i finally got my nice shop built at my grandpas, and this weekend im going to rip the barracuda up. I took monday off work so i have sat, sun, mon, and tuesday to get some stuff done. By the end of this long weekend im going to have the floor out, the doors off, quarters off and the whole frame off, and next weekend im taking it to the welding shop for them to weld on my new frame. :snakeman:
