1965 barracuda advise wanted

While I believe that it's your car, do what you want , I don't think that car is one to mess with. It looks to be in great condition and IMHO it shouldn't be changed. Yes I am a guy who likes original factory cars, but I understand that not everyone does. As some have already said, take a car that needs work and do the swap with that one instead of making changes to this one. I had a lot of trouble find my Formula S because most all that were for sale were modified in one way or another. Again it's your car to do with as you please but I hope you'll choose to leave this great lookin' car alone and find a project car to do what you want with.
