Unfortunately i haven't been able to spend much time on the car. The past few months at work have been crazy, hopefully by the end of February i will have it back on the road.
To save some time and money im just going to run a 727 and swap in my 4 speed later down the road
yesterday evening i was able to get some work done on the Barracuda work has been crazy the past couple weeks, taking up most of my spare time
i snagged the 8 3/4 out of my 64 Valiant and swapped in the Barracuda replacing the old 7 1/4
Brake lines showed up i went with Pre-bent stainless...
picked up a big block A body radiator from the bone yard had it pressure tested core was shot so i took it to the radiator shop its $525!!! to get it re-cored im going to pass for now and see if i can get a new one instead
awesome AMX !!! i have a 68 javelin as well needs a lot of metal work in the quarters as they do not offer replacement quarters but anyways
back to the dash... yes i did sand the chrome down used 1000 grit to get most of the paint and chrome off i also sprayed it with a light coat of sand...
i havent been working on it much lately mostly been scouting out the parts for the 4 speed swap,
i also went to the local junkyard looking for a steering column without the column shift with manual steering if any of you guys have it let me know!
Well I've read on bigblockdart that it has been done I'm trying to figure out if i have the correct bellhousing or need to have this one machined to work
