1969 barracuda on it's way

I saw an add on Ebay a couple of weeks ago for a 69 barracuda .Looked like it was in good shape so I called the # that was in the add. It is an old restration daily driver car and he wanted 4500. for it. We did some horse trading and it should be here on the 19Th . I have two 67s but both are rough so I hope to have the 69 up and running in a month or so. The engine has a freeze plug out of it and he said that the oil pressure was not great. I have a good running 340 sitting in one of the rust buckets to throw in it. After many years I hope to have a DRIVER AGAIN. :icon_sunny:

The 69.It should need just an engine and a paint job. All the metal was replaced several years ago.

This is the first 69 I will own. They made the little beak because of the firebirds . I like the 67,68s a little better also but this car is pretty much rust free and the two 67s are in need of total restro. :'(

Yank the engine and redo from bottom to top...great engines when stock...

Don't bother replacing the freeze plug and try to drive with low oil pressure...this you'll regret later on...
