Post subject: | Just got the 66 Barracuda home |
Just got the 66 Barracuda that I won on eBay home tonight. It's a slant 6 with a column shifted 904. It's white with a black interior. It was parked about 2 years ago because of the water pump. So will be looking thru my stash of parts to see if I have a decent water pump. The incorrect square top radiator also needs to be re-installed as well. Don't know if the fuel line is clogged or a bad gas tank as the PO was driving it with a rubber hose thru the pass vent window into a 5 gal gas can So that'll have to be checked out. Interior needs to be redone but what else is new in a 41 year car :shrug: On the plus side (besides having the slant), it's got the hard-to-find fender mounted turn signals and the body /underside is very solid with very little rust. |

I am more impressed with the rubber hose and 5 gallon tank. On the floor of the passenger side would be my guess. The PO must not of smoked. |

Guess I need to get off my butt and take some pics of the 66 as well as my 65 Valiant convert (slant 3 on the tree), 65 Barracuda (273 4 speed) and 65 Dart wagon (was a slant soon to be a 340) - none are even close to being show ready. |

Yes ... picture of them all! It is nice to know there are others out there with there own collections of the old Mopars!! I would really like to see the 65 Wagon! Always liked the wagons .... here is my old 65/65/66 Barracuda ... I sold it on e-bay just a few weeks back, I had it for about 10 years, but it needed to be restored again ... so I hope the new owner does it ..... It is a 273 like yours, but a bushbuttom auto ... the little Valiant sedan in the background is my brothers ... it is a slant six ... and he is expecting to paint it for spring ... one more slant six on the road |

Reminds me of my high school parking lot when all the cars had Ansen slots and hi-Jackers |
