This is the 71 Cuda Conv that we are restoring 8-)
It has sat for a while and only had little bits done to it...now its going well and most of the body is done and straight
Pictures on my phone dont do it justice and we were in a hurry to go somewhere today so more up dates to follow soon.
It has a 440 6 pak motor and 727 bought seperately, might as well.
...also has original motor and trans with it too

Unusually Rare but original black bucket seats with light grey center vertical stripe, same on rear bench..
:shock:
Car is original 318 Barracuda....low milage

Bought from Gary Bradshaw in Norwich about 10 years ago whos 72 Charger Rallye was in Mopar Muscle this year,
For very little money, before the cars were to enter the Twilight Zone pricewise...What luck :D :D

We need a trunk lid its good but not good enough...anyone got a nice straight steel trunk lid ??

Hood is going to be a Shaker we have all the bits so this hood will be used
whaddya fink :D
