    It's running again......
    « on: March 08, 2009 - 06:28:36 PM »
    After setting for six years, and being I my possession for only two weeks, this Barracuda as running again.   :jumping:



    Sounds good, even with no muffler.  :2thumbs:



    Almost ready for a road trip, but I still need to check a few things, like brakes, tires and lights.   :faint:




    My favorite view.  :cheers:

      Are you going to do without the vinyl roof now? It appears the car had one.

    Very nice color combo ! I love EV2 with white top and interior. You can always add the top at a later date if wanted. Either way it'll look great with the White interior.

    if your having temp/cooling problems or if it gets hot as hell inside the car ... u might want to take the leap and buy a new raidiator.. or atleast drain the old one and clean it. if it still giving u problems after the drain and cleaning ... get yourself a new one ... thats what i did and it runs perfect withough a fan shroud
