My Resto-Mod and Ram
 
If I get a chance I'll get some better, day-time shots of the ram.

Then there's my baby. She isn't much to look at, now, but that will change once this summer rolls around again. My girlfriend and I just had to buy it and pay it off, first.

1967 Barracuda Hatchback:

All the parts are there, the front end and fenders are in the car.

The previous owner swapped out the original 273 Commando V8 and put in his own, hopped-up 318. So, when the funds build up (probably in a couple years :P ) I won't be afraid of putting in my own design.

Thanks for looking.

Here are a couple shots of the ram with the owners manual on it for my proof of that.

I can't get a proof shot of the Barracuda yet, because it's back home in Nebraska (notice the time of year the shot was taken) while I'm down in Colorado for college.

nice ram and cool baracuda 8)

too bad it isnt a SRT like the viper motor and 500 bhp
i hope you will change front bumper for srts bumper :D

baracuda is cool :D

Heh, I'm keeping the Ram as is. For now, the money pit is the Barracuda. The most I would do is get a hitch so I could tow the Barracuda to the shops. Thanks for the comments. :D

umm seeing as the Ram is the wrong body style for the SRT version it would take alot of work to do.

Not a fan of Rams but I love the Barracuda I hope you put a nice 440 in there soon enough, or do you plan on doing a full Cuda clone?

67 Cuda 11-09-2005 09:48 PM

No clone, an N/A street monster is what I want. I would love to put a 440 in there down the road and bore and stroke it out. I want a street monster that's still fairly road feasible. Yeah, the Ram would take a crap ton of work to do that. What I'd like to do is replace the 318 in the Ram with the 318 in the Barracuda (since it is a little more beefy). Right now there's no exhaust. It's headers and then nothing. :P A little loud, I'd say.

nice cuda! looks like the body is in great shape. It'll be quite a beauty once its all together, thats for sure. good luck with the build and keep us updated!
