I have a '65 Barracuda that I am restoring.
It is currently at the painter getting it's original Barracuda
silver w/black racing stipes paint job put back on.
It
has a 340 sixpack engine, the original Hurst shifted four speed,
dual
exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers and 340 exhaust manifolds.
I have an 8 3/4 rearend with 3:23 SureGrip to put in it after it gets back from the body shop.
Thanks, Max!
That Fish will swim with mighty Mopar torque using that motor set up.
That's a great motor for a A body.
And that 4 speed should make it quite fun, too! :-)
RE Update: the new paint looks great! Good job on reproducing the optional paint stripe!
Keep us posted, please.
