If the Barracuda was still in primer then it was the previous owner that still had it, he was from Surrey, think his name was Ricky. Funnily enough he had the 340 T/A motor that Bish now has in it before the 440. That flamin' engine has been in more cars than I've had hot dinners! It's been in my Dart as well.

Blue is name was Ricky and I swapped the 440 for the T/A340. By the way since I got the 340 The engine as only been in cars that I have owned. I put the engine in the Scamp that I sold you and then you sold the engine back to me because you wanted to go big block I then put it into my D100 truck that then ran a 13.7 @ 70mph at the pod. The 70mph was because I had to slow down because of wheel wobble at 85mph I then put it in my 1969 Dart and now it is in the Dart that I sold to Pete Rivers but the engine is still mine

I know where it came from waaaay back in the early `80s, belonged to a guy called Dave in South Shields. My first ride in a B-bod - awesome. Was in excellent order at the time with bronze paint and white interior. He sold it and moved on to a black tunnel rammed 71 Runner which he did a ground up restore - it turned out awesome as well.

I'm pretty sure he sold the car to Mick Smith, he lives on the next street to me, he had it sprayed yellow, i think he fitted c.lines to it.
I've got pics of it somewhere.
