here is the newest project in the shop. Johns cuda will be getting a 25.3 cert along with some "clearancing" some 315 radial tires and a 4 link. Some of the old guys on here probably recognize the car....its been around the area for a long time.

A body Barracuda's were never as sexy to me as the E body Cuda's......but even A body's are sexier than most other stuff on the road!! Looks to be in super shape, especially for a Mopar! Sticking with Mopar bits and pieces, or will it be a half-breed car?

If I ever had unlimited cash, I would make my own 1/2 breed, it would be a 4 eyed Fox body notchback with a 340 6 pack out of a T/A or AAR. Now THAT would be a cool halfbreed!!

AHHH yes "Kingfish"!
Years ago, on a nice Saturday afternoon, the name came to me.
I proceeded to draw a fish with jagged teeth standing next to the name with its fin leaning on the "K", wearing a crown and picking its teeth with a toothpick.
This was on the trunklid.(Long before "Nitrofish" was the thing!)
Later that night I went to the Janesville "Lein Oil" cruise.
Proceeded to street race anyone who pulled next to it, and didn't lose.
The "Kingfish" reputation was born.
Not bad for a Mo-ski!:goof

I remember when Jim (Burge) originally bought that car. It was kind of a sad looking thing with faded paint (the same color) and a blown (up) slant six sitting in a garage in Cudahy. It still had the Colorado tags on it and the prerequisite paint chips in the front clip from the sand they use on the roads during the Colorado winters. I cant believe that thing is still around, let alone gonna be made into a bad-ass radial car. Looks real nice now. Do her proud, Ron. A survivor like that needs the best.
