Doubt they used a real 68 HEMI.  Too expensive.

Noticed an add on a Swedish site for a -69 Barracuda, and my eyes popped. Here it is with a oldschool paint. I`m very,very tempted to go and have a look at it. 65k on the odo.
It`s sitting about an hour drive from me.
Just love these cars with the oldschool paint.

Just and FYI if you like old school paint. 

Look around on craigslist and under books enter in "hot rod" or something like that or you could check out ebay I guess..  I just picked up a few old car mags from the 70/80s and some have pretty cool looking paint.  :thumbsup:

another shot of it from 1974 at Minnesota Fairgrounds. This was build by Chuck Miller for ISCA and given to Jerry Pendelton as first place trophy for most points. Jerry sold it to "Treatment" corp.

Looks sort of like one of the cars we're trying to get done for carlisle this year. Me and my dad have decided that either people are going to love this car or hate it, hopefully most people will love it, heres a pic of it
