Another Mopar Off My Bucket List - Barracuda Fastback
It's been a long time since this thread actually had an update on my Barracuda. The last time I made reference to it was after I broke the fiberglass hood when I drove the car without having it pinned. Today seemed like a good time to do the repairs.
Fortunately the damage was isolated on the bottom. After supporting the hood upside down on a pair of padded bar stools I ground the area surrounding the break. Then I used fiberglass jelly instead of the regular resin. (I didn't want to combat dealing with a runny mixture) I threw a couple of clamps on it and cut some fiberglass to work over the cracks.
