21st Anniversary Newbie
« on: August 02, 2005 - 10:19:06 AM »
I am new to your site, but I have owned my 1974 Barracuda for 21 years this month.  It came stock with a 318 2 bbl, but I have re-worked numerous times over the years.  It has been bored 30 and has the Edelbrock Performer Series cam, lifter, intake and carb.  She is in serious need of body work thanks to the rust factor, but it is still my daily driver and has been for 21 years now.  Even as bad a shape as the body is in, a week doesn't go by that I don't find slips of paper stuck under the wiper wanting to know if I would be willing to sell it.  I'm not quite that desparate yet!  Glad I found your site and I will add some pics as I get the chance.

I'm always impressed with the long time owners of Mopars, that sort of dedication is impressive.

Welcome to the site, and get those pics up so we can see that Cuda!
