Well as a lot of you may have already guessed I have got a new motor. I could not face cutting up the Barra and with my shares taking a big tumble in the USA, causing the work that I had planned to be put back even further. So when I saw this I went for it and sold the Barra to release up some funds. As the car has no engine and box I have a bit of a blank sheet. The car was delivered on saturday by John . Now the Barra only just fitted in the garage so I knew it would be tight but I was not expecting to have to remove the front and rear bumpers and the trunk lid to get it in , hey ho I always wanted a longer garage not that I can go too far back as the fish pond is only five foot behind it, so about four feet will have to do. It a sectional garage so it should not be too much hassle.

I dont think that I have seen an unrestored car looking as clean underneath as this its mint and shows the quality of the cars Dave Madders brings in.

I started work today on cutting out the roll cage in the car as it is not my liking and have called Hausers to arrange getting a 10 point cage fitted, I must remember to call Dale and get a bonnet ordered as well as start a hunt for a complete motor or block to start a build.
It will be ready when its ready So dont rush me, but I will be working to get it finished ready for next years Nats.

I will post more pictures as soon as I find my damn camera

Yes I will miss the Barra but must move on and put my past behind me.

The reason the rear windows look different is because its a post car..

Good look with the new car Guy,makes more sense than cutting the barracuda,and probabley a lot lighter

Suits you Guy! Well done mate! Love it! You will have fun in that. Slant 6?

Well done Guy, looks like a sweet ride, will look forward to seeing it run, best of luck in your new venture.

That is a really nice car which I fancied like hell just as it came when Dave Madders had it up for sale.
I would have liked to have made a cool street sleeper with it so initially I was a little upset that it was going to be cut up so drastically.

But when I saw the result of Johns hard work I could not help be be impressed. That is one seriously cool and good looking car now.

Good luck with this Guy. I can't wait to see it. And Bags Me the first lift up the pit lane in it.

I had a close look at this car, when Dave brought it in and knew it was a good one.

Congratulations Guy, that's gonna be a load of fun!

Great Car, Guy, Best of luck with it. Im sure your Fish Won't mind it!

I popped round Guy's at the weekend, have to say the car is super straight underneath and a great blank canvas for Guy to start with.

Perhaps now the cage is out I can get in and out of it

Very Nice!!!

Looks great and will be a lot of fun no doubt!! (with an engine of course)

No missing it with that paint, should be quick as anything too

If you are redoing the cage take a look at how the front section of this car has been done,

A post bars behind the dash, wish I'd done mine like that, defiantly the best way to go

That looks like a good idea,good car
