Man that looks real good, what are the plans for it? Leave it all stock and just drive it?
 
Met your brother at Long Beach
Drive for now, and then after retirement do a few of the"obligatory"hot rod upgrades
Oh yeah he told me! Yeah man I like that barracuda real nice well kept together after all these years, that’s the amazing part.
 
Got the old 7-1/4 out.
Fresh Ford 8" with 3.40 going in soon with better springs
Shocks on the way from rock auto
Still haven't found any rot, however I have discovered about a dozen black widows.
Also found that driveshaft is not a slip yoke

No leaks(yet)

I may give it a couple of coats of epoxy primer to protect the metal and make it 1 color for now. Plans are 64 Barracuda Gold Paint
