New Canuck in town, eh!
« on: August 31, 2011 - 06:44:01 PM »
Hello all. I'm a 1964 Human Male, all original, numbers matching, probably could use some body work, but no holes or dents. My ride is a 1974 Barracuda, 440, 727, not a single matching number in sight, nothing original, but loads of fun. I rebuilt the engine last winter (first one ever) .030 over, balanced, Stealth heads, MP Purple Shaft, (Duration@.050" - 234/234, Lift - .474/.474, o/lap - 60), 750 Holley, Edelbrock Performer intake, headers (they were fun!!! :eek4:), 2300 stall converter. Peg leg is in it right now but I have a Sure Grip to pop in soon (3.23). New exhaust, 2.5" through Magnaflows....

Now, lemme see if I can figure out how to post pics here...

Hey Dave, glad you made it over to the best Cuda-Challenger site on the planet.
I recognize your user name from "My Mopar" and you'll find it's a bit more active here.

Lots of friendly & informative people here to help with any questions you can throw at them.

Post up more pictures of your Cuda when you get a chance.

Welcome Dave...looks a lot like my 74 except I have road wheels on it right now.  Nice to be able to see what it would look like with ralleye's.  I'm in southwestern Ontario, where are you?

I hear ya, parking lots alone are scary. 'Course, I don't actually spend much time in parking lots, why the heck would I want to be standing still in this car, unless there's a light about to turn green in front of me???
