New but Not ReallY!!!
« on: September 24, 2011 - 12:59:52 AM »
Hey guys I registered back in 2003!!!! When I had my first car (70 Barracuda). Well I wanted to see if anyone could track this car down or help me find it.

The VIN is BH23C0E108727. I had to sell the car when I went into the Marines. I sold the car to a Logan Mansfield in Mountain Home, Idaho. I converted the car over to a 440 the correct way, by changing the whole front suspension including the K-frame and the Rear end. The original color was B-5 Blue. It had several different colors on it, and the rear quarters were banged up really good and rusty. I would really like to see what happen to this car, and well this is the best place i could think to do it!!! Thanks GUYS!!!

Welcome back. I have not seen your car. OOORAHH TEUFULHUNDEN!!  Former Marine myself.

  Was it a sixpack car? There was not need to change the k-frame unless it was a hemi or a 6pak engine. You can buy the skid plate for the bottom of the V-8 K-frame and weld it on yourself.
318-440 k-frames are the same from what I have read unless you have a 6-pak or a hemi.

The Charger sounds powerfully awsome, give em' HELL in Afghanistan. Save some dough there are a million cuda projects out there pretty cheap right now.

   Thank you for your service.
