67 Barracuda

[James92]

Well... I tried to limit myself to two cars. I really did. I live in a townhouse with a small garage and just a little bit of street parking. I barely (don't) have time to stay on top of the work needed on the Comanche and my Charger. But I couldn't turn this down. I've always wanted a 67-69 barracuda, and this is the ultimate one. Original 383 big block car, 4 speed, formula S, original owner! So, for now, the Jeep must be street parked  

 

 

I'm a sucker for that fast back.

 

Dual quads!

 

Picked up some cool stuff for the car at the Goodguys swap meet last weekend:

 

I don't even know where to start with this one. It runs and drives pretty well right now, but it is mostly original. It's pretty daunting! And every part costs a heck of a lot more than Comanche parts. So for now, I'm going to put this on the back burner and focus on the Comanche. 

 

I will say, it doesn't get old coming home to see this face in the garage. I still can't believe I got it.

Thanks guys! It's way shinier and way less rusty than anything I'm usually used to haha

It was originally metallic blue, which I like quite a bit better. Apparently a few years ago he was sick of looking at the blue and painted it lime green in his garage. Fair enough - he owned the car for almost 60 years! But one day, I'd like to bring it back to the blue.
