    Finally !!! Barbara is my all time favorite. She needs to get the recognition she deserves. Get her out in the sun and tell her story. She's a beauty hands down.

    I absolutely love this notchback barracuda, has always been one of my favorites, growing up an older teenager had a blue one with the crager 50ies on the back, it was the 70ies and it looked perfect and was one of the cars 🚗 that got me into cars 🚗... Thank you Barb..

    My uncle still has his 66 Belvedere he bought it brand new and 66 in Oakland California. In fact, the family that had Plymouth dealer ran the Melrose missile race car. They lived across the street from my uncle and my dad. My uncle still has its 66 Belvedere, British race and green, at one point he had Tommy the Greek re-spray the car with lacquer. I think this was in the mid 70s he still has the car he just recently about five years ago restored the whole thing I’ll send you guys some pictures of it on Instagram.

    Hello from South Dakota!!!...Out of all years of Barracuda the 69 is by far the top favorite of mine...The styling, design, and aggressive appearance are all unique to this 69 which is what attracts me to it...This is a car you don't see very often and why I look forward to seeing it complete.

    383 Big Block and a 4 speed! OMG!
    Your car, your choice, but please don't put that vinyl top back on it. I get you wanting it original, but they promote rust like crazy and you have to glue it down. Crimeny! It would be a shame to ruin the paint underneath it. It looks so beautiful the way it is right now.
    Headers seem to always give you a headache!
    Great video Guys!

    Was awesome to hear Barbara the Barracuda, thanks for firing her up!
    It's been 3 months since I started my 78 Bronco project, getting me motivated to do the same even though it has carburetor issues at the least, but still starts and runs ok ish 😊.
    My Bronco has a passenger side exhaust manifold leak too.
    Nice engine stand, I noticed you already made a custom mod, the Gnarly Speed Shop decal of course! I need to order a couple of those myself.
    Push rod mods, as Derek from VGG would say, "if it works, is it a dumb idea?" Danny, you are very creative with figuring things out with the tools you have.
    Have fun finalizing the engine build guys! Take your time to do it right as always, look forward to hearing the big block Mopar come to life. If it's Tuesday, awesome, if it's later, still awesome! 🍻
    I love the 90's retro merch. I've never heard of anyone doing this, thats awesome of you Liv! 🍻

Now id love to have another nova id paint it green with a black vinyl top.

      ..........................Thanks for that update,,,,,,,I'd rather buy that summit stand,,,,just don't have the time to plot and weld something up......I got a cheapo Harbor Freight cheerypicker,,,,,,I could slice the support beams in four places to widen it , kick em out 4 inches on each side ; then weld in gusset plates to reinforce what metal was removed.......Being sure not to widen too much ; still need it to roll under a vehicles front suspension........

    I would be focusing on the "Cuda" it's so much further along than the charger, that's where the 512 should be. And OB the 383 to a 413/426/440. Everyone is always trying to do a charger....but a 69 Barracuda it would be a beast, that body. You think the charger turns heads, but a Cuda...you'd do a double take and just drool. It's still not too late. Don't know why it's taking a back seat. It would easily do 10s. I just tune in recently so I know I've missed something. CUDA IS GNARLY🤙

    Legendary calls that style of vinyl top grain “boar grain”. They gave it a name when they started reproducing it years ago. The “gator grain” is a different style of vinyl top grain and that is the name Chrysler gave it. I’m an old school Mopar guy.
    The saddle interior looks great in the car. Love to see Barb out in the street when you get her ready.
