Gee, there was a 65 Barracuda convertible in the Buffalo News for $2500 or something. Why not get another one.
Cool car Ray.

Simple Ray, buy a smaller house with more garage space, with room for even more garages.
"Build it, they will come"
The amount of cars and parts is exponentially larger than the amount of space available.....and maintains that ratio even if you build or buy more space.

The Weakest link in one of those is that spindley 8 1/4 differential......................better look for a spare.
Or upgrade to an 8 3/4

been coming along great with the cuda, striping the body down and just about have a shell of a car left, I have to give Chuck my buddy from Smith`s Collision in Wrights corners a big thanks, for making my front valance look new, and helping to get the body in top shape.

just finished up rebuilding the whole brake system, don`t buy wheel cylinders from AutoZone they are junk, leaked worse than the old ones, what a pain in the a$$, NAPA has good ones, made in USA, you pay more but get good quality, pictures will be posted soon. ya Swi looking to up grade the rear end, also may get some sweetened 273 heads from Ron Farley

I remember my son using Auto Bone wheel cylinders, tightened the tiny bleeder valve, and the cylinder actually broke!
He also used their calipers and we could not get them bled as they had the wrong size bleeder valves in them and would not completely seal!
I go to NAPA...............
