It looks to be an M46 car?

yup, thats what I thought. Actually, he has it listed twice under "barracuda" also.  This listing has more pics. Underhood and inside look very straight to me. Dash pad looks perfect.

That's a steal at that price. Almost worth buying to resell in a few years! If that was a 71 I'd really be in the "dog house" :bigsmile:

Wish he would post the fender tag.  He does know something about M46 cars the way he words it.  I wonder if that 22 inch radiator is original, and the road wheel. 

Biggest question is original color and what color pin stripe .  It has the quarter trim chrome, gray grill. But the car has been built his way to.

wouldnt the 22" be correct for non AC 318". Looks like a few things are changed the breather or at least the lid was for a 340.

Yeah, there's a lot changed on the car. I did copy the pic of the fender tag, but it is blurry when I zoom in on it.  The rad isnt original. No numbers on it and the lower hose is looped around to the other side

Buy it Alan!!
You could clean it up and double your money in a couple of years! Better return than the stock market!

I dont have the money to buy it  :sadwavey:   Notice the breather for the 4 barrel turned backward?  I wonder if that is to try to get air from the windshield. The hood is painted black underneath isnt it?

I would sure like to get the read out on the fender tag.   I think someone will chime in knowing something about this car.

Yes, didnt notice it til you mentioned the breather being turned around, Maybe becuase valve covers got swapped and breather port is on drivers side?

I emailed him when it first appeared. There is a 68 fastback mustang in the background I was curious about. he was quick to respond. I can look at this car for anyone interested. It looks to be parked in downtown Dallas near where I work

Yeah I saw the broken handle to. The car sits high up front. No swaybar in front either. Still looks like a nice driver to restore or drive as is.
