Hello from the state of Maryland

[Happy Harry]

I am Happy Harry and have finally joined after many years of sitting on the sidelines. Having purchased a 1970 barracuda convertible in 1990, it has collected dust for all these years and now I am ready to finish it up. As with buying just a few more parts to finish it, I will be selling a small amount of parts that I no longer need. I will be looking forward to talking with the members and hopefully helping anyone with questions if I can. I leave you with a picture of the barracuda. I am getting the body prep now so I can paint it this summer. Till then, have a nice weekend.

Welcome Aboard , nice B5 white gut?

The car is basically a Heinz 57 variety. When I bought it years ago, I found gold color on the in side of the doors and the rest of the car painted in the blue color along with blue indoor panels, blue carpet and white seats. I put in black carpet and white door panels and will paint it the plum crazy purple.

It has a rebuilt 318 with a set of X heads and a purple shaft cam and a 904 trans. It was just rebuilt before I bought it in 1990 so I do not have the specifics on it. It may not be fast but it will get up and go. Besides, I rather just go and do 25 mph down main street and profile a bit. Originally, I had plans to drop a larger engine and even toyed with ideal of putting a stick shift. But now I'm getting older, my wife and I would just like to get it on the road and enjoy it while we can.
