Hello y'all new here. I live in nc. And have recently well very recently as of today just bought my first mopar. As in a 1967 barracuda. It's gonna be one long project. Meaning a lot of sheet metal work. I have some plans in mind for her. Which will b a complete srt transplant. That's only because what I have now is a rusted chassis and a piece of paper that says I own this rust bucket. So I'm guessing first on the list would be to get it blasted and see what's left then get me a new welder. Then to source me some new metal and shinny things. Lol. I've built a lot of cars before but I've never had to go this far for a project. I'm used to spending decents amount of money for parts beings I've built a lot of German cars. But as I am getting older I want to bring it back him to the good old American steel. So any pointer would be helpful.

Welcome to the site and you'll find that some photos of the car and areas you're repairing will help people to give an accurate response. Good luck with your new (old) Mopar!  :wave:
