Hi and it is very good to be a part of the MOPAR.

I am Ali been into American cars, well all my life, childhood and soon after I could run one as second car!

I have had a few Cadillacs (the reason for the username) but always a problem keeping a 19 feet car covered.

But in me I have always wanted a Mopar.

The one I would love to have would be a 73 Road Runner, but not yet.
I started looking at the Barracuda 64 to 69 (A body) and researched and looked for a year or so till I found one end of last year, so I imported it.

It is a 1968 Hardtop Coupe (Notchback) with a 340 and 8 3/4 rear end.

It is NOT perfect but it is good.

Welcome :thumbright: I think the notchback is the best of the lot :love10: and as you say, just the right size to look after if you have a `normal `size garage. Great colour too 8-)

Thanks guys for such warm welcome.
It's a nice car but would be better if I could get it road worthy, and start using it, mind you with this weather it may be better in the garage.
