    1. I want a 63 1/2 fastback. Like the style more. I'm real picky about hood scopes and mags, but the teardrop is one of my favorites along with the old style Cragars. I went into a shop to inquire about buying a set for my '65 Hipo and they were $120 for the set, now that won't buy one.:) They wouldn't let me pay by the month, so no dice.:)

  2. Look at the tires on the Barracuda. Them is some serious rubber!

    1. I'm still praying for the day that I find a '68 426 Dart in a barn, all original down to the no crank windows.:) I had a '68 four door Valiant taxi that I put a 383 in and did the drive train right, but kept as a cab and would use when we were way behind. I remember the first time I pulled up at the bus to pick up some Marines in San Clemente and one looked incredulously at it with it's loud exhaust system, wide tires and said "Is this a taxi?" :)
