Welcome to the site 66gldfish, glad to have you here. Post some pictures of that barracuda when you get a chance. By the way, what did you have Pontiac wise?
 
Welcome to the site!I,m an old Pontiac fan also,I had a few..69 G.T.O,73 Grand-Am BB auto,73 and 77 LeMans Sports.I love the ride of the full frame Poncho,s.But now love rowing the gears of a stroked 340,can,t beat it.
 
Welcome 66gldfish! :wave: I came back to Mopar from the 'dark side' couple of years ago - but still wish I still had my '74 TransAm ('ex' took it as part of divorce years ago and trashed it in no time).
 
Welcome 66gldfsh, and as a fellow 66 owner I now initiate you into the Early A club!!! No dues or meetings and VERY loose rules, but the first and foremost is that when you first come to FABO, you MUST have pics ready to show. It just kills us not to see what's on the catch of the day!!! From daily driver to show queen, we love to see them all, and hear about them too. In my past there have been several Pontiacs, heck I had 5 or 6 at one time, but you'll never go back now that you have a 66 Cuda!!! Welcome again and enjoy the best site on the web!!! Geof
 
Welcome 66gldfish.

It's nice to see another early A on FABO.

What do you want for wheels. Looking for 15's, or going to go all out and go with some 17's?
I have 275 40 R 17's on the back of my 65 Cuda, with stock wheel wells, with the springs moved in.
 
not really sure at this point.i was hopeing to get some ideas from some other owners here on this site.i am trying to find some pictures and maybe get some ideas.
 
There is a guy on here named hkeller that has a gorgeous white 65 cuda running 17's, and dam does it look good. Not sure of his tire size though.
 
hello everyone! i finally got some pictures of my 66'. hope you like!

Nice looking car and welcome to the world of Mopars...... Now get rid of the Pontiac sign in the garage and replace it with a Plymouth....:cheers: Don't tell anybody but i am kinda fond of the Pontiacs myself.....
 
yea i know, i should of taken the pontiac sign down first, before i took those pictures.but i did get a plymouth sign for xmas just didn't hang it up yet.
 
Now that's what i'm talking about 66gldfsh. That is one sweet ride, you can be very proud of that car, it is a beauty. Same goes for you 66340sedan, your dads car is clean enough to eat off of. I just love the looks of the 66, and am I wrong, but don't you have the 66 hardtop too, 66340sedan?? I am especially fond of the look of your hardtop. By the way, I wish you guys could've read the article in my local paper this past week. It chronicled the adventures of a person in my area who calls himself Mr. Mopar. It went into great detail about how he took a 67 Pontiac wagon (actually a 67 Satellite) and made into a replica of his 69 Pontiac GTX. I think they were just a little off the mark, and I didn't realize that the Plymouth name had been gone so long, but it was a very funny article that I'm sure "Mr. Mopar" will never live down. Every time I see him now I'm gonna call him "Big Chief", LOL!!! Long live Pontiac...oops, I mean Plymouth!!!! Have a good one ya'll, Geof

Nice looking car! I'm going from 13's to 14's but stuck with SBP for money reasons, but I think BBP is still the best way to go. Lots of great people here on this site with tons of great information.
Good luck with her!
 
Hey 66gldfish -
Clean car. Really looks nice! All you need now is an injected Hemi under the rear glass and you'll really be rockin'!
