65 Barracuda Strip to Street/Strip build

The first crank was bent. We just got second one in ... and my buddy (builder) just texted me video of it rolling nice. Next week he'll have it balanced and short block done ... woot. Heads and cam suppose to arrive by end next week too.

MT ET street radial pros came in and mounted. Needed to see before figuring out which cal tracs to order. Old tires rear tires were 29.5/11.5/15 - the big rake was needed because they hung out of the wheel well lip. The MT's are narrower and we should be able to get at least part of wheel tucked in and rear lower.

I like the ol school rake look ... but of course functionality has to come first ... lol. She's tubbed but mini. Maintained OE frame rail with inset hangers for leaf springs. Losing some footprint (and height ... we have to see what that does with 4.56 rear .. prob not huge ... losing maybe .75" ) but figuring/hoping new rear end set-up will more than make up for it. Did confirm it has some nice Strange axels.

I'll try to get some more pics ... y'all have great weekend!
