Another Mopar Off My Bucket List - Barracuda Fastback
The funnycar may not have looked too bad in the pictures I'd posted earlier but it needs a lot of repair. The body has several cracks in the roof from vandalism. Some teenage vandals had gotten on top of the car and jumped up & down on it. That was several years ago. Needless to say, it's one of the reasons the funnycar project had been put on hold for so long.
To aid in the repair I am planning on reinforcing the roof with 3/8" aluminum rod. I'll form it to match the original roofline and fiberglass it to the underside. These bodies normally have some reinforcing anyway.
