Any old car enthusiasts/restorers here?

Right now I'm restoring a 1966 Barracuda. Here are some pics of my project:

I can imagine that finding the rear window glass is going
to be a pita.

Does it have an engine? 383, Slant 6?

I have a rear window for it. My brother found one for a pretty good deal. We just need to install it with a new gasket and locking strip. The engine is a 273 V8, only 66,000 miles on it and runs pretty good!

Nice project truck. My Cuda will be the same blue (metallic) as the interior with the Formula S stripes in silver. She'll have dual exhausts and slotted mags. And of course, a four barrel carb instead of the two barrel.

I'm gonna hype up the 350 it has. I'm going to redo the inside black and paint the outside back to the original blue and white color.

There is a Mopar salvage yard in Fairmount, Ga. that has acres of cars and warehouses full of parts, many NOS. I can get the name of it if you want it. I am a Pontiac nut and have three at the moment, a 67 GTO, 1950 Pontiac Streamliner and a 39 Series 28 sedan. The 67 is 99.9% finished and the other two are project cars.

I have a 1968 chevy c10 stepside but it is on the back burner for know. Had to empty my bank accounts to support my daughter when granddaughter was passing from cancer and haven't started back in on it.

Sorry to hear about that. My prayers to you and your daughter.

I've had this one for a little over a year, got some tinkering to do on it this winter.

1970 AMC AMX. One of 4,000 total AMX’s built that year.
I put in new carpet. Only factory US sports car with no back seat besides the corvette.

1971 AMC Javelin AMX. One of only 2,000 built that year.
Work in progress.

This is a kit car I helped my younger bro build. I suppose it qualifies as old because he bought the shell in 1980 while in high school. Finally finished in 2017.

This is similar to the car from TV’s “Hardcastle and McCormick.”

Hand-built, started with a rear-mounted 350 Chevy V8/Toronado transaxle, way too hairy!
Ended up on a different frame with hopped-up VW-power.

Not true!! Kaiser Darrin had no back seats and had a fiberglass body.

Damn where was the Kaiser buried? 435 built! My neighbor had one, not! Fiberglass? Kit car? I guess I stand corrected!

AMC bought Kaiser. Love the small car co’s.
