Whoa!  I think you'll need more tools than what's shown in that pic.  Looks like you have your work cut out for you.  Thanks for keeping another Cuda on the road!   :burnout:

Welcome aboard from Norcal  :wave:

Fender tag/Broadcast sheet? Any cool options?

Keep us posted and start a members resto thread with lots of pics.
We all like to follow along with the process.

Finesse asked the 'Cuda out to dinner once, but the 'Cuda stood it up to go drink beer under an overpass with her hot little sister. As far as this car is concerned, finesse can go stuff itself."

One of my best friends is near Dover. Ex Air Force, has a 68 Charger project now. If you're going to be at Carlisle I'll introduce you.

I moved it to the eastern shore two weekends ago.  I built a shop down there where and I can make some noise.  Currently, I've got some other side projects, so I won't start the final tear down until the fall.  So far, I've got 6 bins of parts.

It's a base Barracuda.  Some cool options are ps/pb, vinyl top, road lamps, a/c, buckets, and console.

I found the broadcast sheet which was nice.

I'm gonna open another thread on the restoration forum and uploaded some more pics.

Heading to Carlisle next month. I'm about 1 1/2 hours away.

See'ya.
