65 Barracuda

Post by Adrian Worman »

Yes mates, I got Ivors car now, it looked a lot of work but in reality he's provided me with a pretty sound shell ;)
A 4 speed is already waiting to go in, so is a late model inj 360, see how it all pans out once I get the media blaster on the shell and see what I need.
Ivors got a lovely cat you know :)

All the glass and trim is present and in good shape, only the front seats and door cards missing, got some old M3 sports seats to go in.

His cat is one of them that looks like a power crazed villains cat as well, something oriental about it :lol:

Yep, Devon Rex Steve, a total nutter, was under the 'cuda on the trailer dicking around while Ade, his brother skinny Ian and I were trying to tie it down...Sid wasn't phazed at all by all the banging and crashing.

I'm not looking for another big Mopar project, just a small one! I'll leave Ade to take on this one! ;)

remeber Aussie AP5 cars were drived from this US valiant body

trim and a good few other breakables swap right over in many cases

as the Aussie cars were just CKD kits from Canada's mopar production lines often making use of last model tooling

example 68 dart 2 door bodies used in 69 VF and 70 VG in Aus

all of the cars up 60-68 Rv1 Rv2 S AP5 AP6 VC VE 4 doors mind

NOS grill bits were popping up a few months ago for notta lotta cash on aussie ebay
hood bonnet screen rubbers trim and lock strip all should fit
