Another Mopar Off My Bucket List - Barracuda Fastback

Well looks like you had the getting busy bug! Dang nearest harbor freight is 50 miles? You live on a ranch or farm? Big property out in the Nebraska countryside? My dads property is about 10 acres with a small lake and my Florida home is on 1.5 acres with fruit trees about 1/8 mile from the beach access and boat marina on Siesta Key Island in Sarasota and yeah plenty of beaches there for people watching if you like to lol! Well at least you have the winter down time to get he race car ready for next year! Should look great!

Yeah yeah, with all your killer toys you understand! Yeah my wife and kids are looking forward to being back in Florida going boating and seadoo-ing! That reminds me I need to get my boat taken out of dry-dock and serviced!!


I live in a small town of about 2500 people. When my folks passed away I bought their house in town and 3 acres of their farmstead with my portion of the proceeds from the land sale. The nearest Harbor Freight is in Lincoln, Nebraska. So, I'm still a poor slob struggling to make ends meet by most people's standards. If I hadn't accumulated so much junk from my younger days (when stuff was cheap) I'd only be able to daydream about owning most of what's here on the yard now.

But that's alright with me. I've always thought that I'd rather be good looking than wealthy. I'm just hoping that the good looks show up one of these days.

I've always been a land-lubber. Those Jaws movies have convinced me that it's the way to be. Them Sea-Doos look like they'd be a lot of fun for folks that are able to stay above water. I swim like a rock.

So the wife and kids are crossing the country with you? I think you should map out some stops along the way. Maybe see the world's largest ball of twine. There's a head in a weird storefront in Lebanon, Tennessee that they claim is from a bigfoot-like creature. You could visit Metropolis. Maybe stop at the future birth place of James T. Kirk. The lamer the attraction - the better. It'll have your wife rolling her eyes every time you suggest another family outing. But it'll make for some unforgettable photographs.



I snapped these when we drove the '68 Chevelle back to Nebraska from Georgia. (disregard the date stamps. I didn't know how to set up the camera at that time)
