Another Mopar Off My Bucket List - Barracuda Fastback

I't great when fathers and sons work projects together. It builds memories that stand the test of time. Some memories we wish to forget but most were glad to remember.

I know my son and I are having a blast with our 67 and even though it seems like we arn't getting anywhere we still have a good time. Now only if he would help with the financial part of the project all would go smoother.
He just wants to go drive it and I keep reminding him that it's the problems and difficult to figure out solutions that you work out together and the time spent that will be the best memories. The driving afterwards won't be remembered as anything else but driving.
On the other hand I would love to take her out and make a few tire marks on the road. L.O.L!!

My old man never helped me work on my cars. I was just grateful that he never kicked me out of the shop while I did. When I read the threads that guys have posted about their cars that have been second generation owned it makes me smile. The number of memories that go with those vehicles has to be as valuable as the cars themselves.

Tomorrow I'm headed to Des Moines to pick up my son's Jeep Cherokee and bring it back to Nebraska. It's yearning to be put down at a scrapyard after several years of use. One of my buddies here said he could use parts off of itbefore it meets it's demise.

I'll be hauling the SRT Challenger to Des Moines when I go. - No sense in my son driving separate. The Ford truck still has no heater or radio. Hopefully the temperature will get out of the 40s before we leave.

I have to be back by Sunday. There's a swap meet in Wahoo, Nebraska then. Maybe a $200 crate hemi will be there. - Probably not, - but I can dream.
