66 valiant signet convertible Barracuda Conversion

We are wrapping up a 68 barracuda notch back for my stepson. It’s not a numbers matching car but we went with the stock colors on it. If my convertible had the original engine I would’ve made it all original. There were like 275 factory V8 Signet convertible’s built in 66. But it had a 70 318 in it. So I made a 4 speed out of it and building a 372 stroker on a 340 block to go in it. It should be a really fun driver when it’s finished.

the slotted mags are timeless and look sharp on that old notch. Karrin and I are retaining most of the 67 features ie tail lamps and grille but we are going with a 67 cast 202 valve 340 x head engine with the 340 Formula s hood badges. The other 68 parts would be hardly noticeable...150 mph speedo, factory tach burl dash and door car treatment.
