Another Mopar Off My Bucket List - Barracuda Fastback
I've stretched the gold paint as far as I could and it's so-so. For now it'll have to do. I took a sander to the rear end and cleaned it up and spritzed it black. I guess I can check numbers 1, 2, & 4 off of my to-do list. There were still some remnants of the old cage that needed to be ground smooth from the frame. I took care of them. Maybe I'll try to finish polishing the radiator yet. I should at least clean it up more.
Tomorrow I'll have to get some socket head bolts for the carb adapter so I can mark #5 off my list. I shouldn't have any problem getting the Lexan in but I'm dreading the fumes from the resin and bondo. I may have to do it outside where it'll be better vented.
Those Cragars cleaned up pretty good. I should re-do the white lettering on those front runners though.
