'64 Valiant Barracuda was released late in the model year. Trunk should have both names on it.
There's a Car Life review from July 64, but of course its optioned with v-8 and bucket seats...

Yes, the Barracuda was a mid year 64 launch...

I believe that I saw a program that they beat the intro of the 64 Mustang by one week....

Any one here have a use for this aluminum 2bbl?

@toolmanmike '64 Fury Pro-Touring

ive been following this guy's build on FBBO, well worth it

Nope, no projects for this guy, no place or energy to do it. I need something more like this. A hour drive away from me. A 330 hardtop. Kinds different. He has the original hood painted and the air cleaner to fit underneath. A set of wheels and a stance and it would be ready to cruise.

How much would you sell that intake for??

 

[Unconventional]

It just has a look of "attitude". The "I'm not f&^%in around here. The showy wheels are in the shop. I mean business" kinda attitude.

i can't tell you how tempting it is to do a 3rd gen hemi swap into mine with having 2 of them. or a 440 hidden in 413 battle dress

Need 2 hood scoops for the cross ram

Need 2 hood scoops for the cross ram

nah, it might get a standard 64 max wedge scoop though

 

[dukeboy440]

though, im thinking a sleeper build would defeat the purpose of the scoops.

i know that feeling. Some people just don't understand people like you and me. We see what most people think of as junk cars as historical treasure, even the not desirable cars.
