started my 1965 Barracuda today....

That's interesting.
When I restored my car (1989/1990) there were no reproduction stripes available, so I had to go w/ paint. That's why I had a cow when the guy painted it to the edge; to redo it meant that the entire hood would have had to have been reshot and that wasn't going to happen on the limited budget I had at the time, so I left it as is and took the penalty at some of the more strict judging shows I attended.

Anyway, whenever I see an Ivory and gold '65, I immediately think it's my old car. That and the bumper guards, which I rarely see.
Here's another shot of mine, pre-sale...
