Bought my fathers 66 Barracuda, 273 commando, factory ac. pretty simple really, I want to put better brakes, better lights, bigger wheels, and black the whole car out.
This is what I started with......

Speaking of gen1 Barracudas, I just stumbled across these photos of a member's car. I think he sold it if I'm not mistaken.

That’s a sharp looking early A.

Got to put some color down on the bumpers today.

Also switching the interior over to black, and began painting interior panels.

The paint looks nice and slick.

Retired last week, so now I can focus on completing this. Was at the shop today working on the hood, and hopefully the progress flows from here on out.
