November 8, 2009 This is going to be an update on my brother-in-law Al's 1964 Barracuda page. He is getting pretty close to being finished with it. He has had it running and I believe he has moved it under its own power. However, he has not driven it yet. He said it sounds good and all systems are go at this time. I have a bunch of pictures to post showing its almost finished condition. I don't have the time to post them now, but I will get them shortly. Please check back from time to time to see them. I will have updates on my Road Runner in the spring. January 1, 2010 I visited with Al during a family gathering just before Christmas and got to see his Barracuda. It is nearly finished and it is looking great. We were going to take it out for a short maiden voyage, but the weather turned nasty on us and we didn't get to do it. I did get to check it out and listen to it run. It sounds great and as soon as the weather breaks and the streets clear up he will be taking Yogi out for his first shake down cruise. I am looking forward to a ride (and possibly a drive?) in the car. I will post the final finished pictures in the in the late spring or early summer. As I said Yogi looks and sounds great. Al has taken what most people would have considerd a pile of junk ready for the scrap heap turned it into a like new and very cool piece of Chrysler history. He did most of the work himself and has never had a mechanical background. I am very impressed with his work. Check out the pics at the bottom of Al's page. January 9, 2012 It has been a long time since I have updated my site. I still have to post the final pictures of Al's Barracuda. I am about to start a new page on the site for a 1949 Ford F-1 pickup that I am starting to build into a hot rod. It is going to have a 1992 Mustang GT engine, transmission and a rear end from 1998 GT with disc brakes. I am going to keep the computer control system and not convert to carburetor system. Stay tuned. |
