Yeah white with red interior with the black stripe must have been sharp when it was new. I had a 70 318 barracuda convert that was white with blue interior..I didn't like the white...maybe the black stripe and the rocker gills would help this one I don't know. It would be great to restore it all original but its not worth it since the fender tag is rusted beyond reading...the red interior I have is pretty much junk and the motor isn't original...plus it would need better bodywork before I would paint it. I really just want to just rip around with it for the summer..so primer will be fine for now. Maybe when I get some other projects done I'll redo it..but for now it will be nice to leave the car anywhere and not worry about it. Its just going to be a driver..nothing special...just needs to be in one piece again for now. I'm excited for spring.
I hear ya...sometimes you just need to rip down the road. With all the chevy and ford classics out there, a mopar in flat black will STILL stick out and you will have fun doing it. That is one thing lost in the process...I know it myself. When money is tight (like it is for me), life is too short to stress over every little part. Fun is the cure. Have a good time driving her
