1968 Barracuda in Plano Texas

[linkstar69]

Is that chin spoiler made for A bodies or did you adapt it to fit

[LUV2XLR8]

the spoiler looks like an early model (67-69) GM F-body possibly

[Mike]

Spoilers by Randy sells the spoiler made for that generation of Barracuda.

Looks good, Michael.

Really know how to hurt a Mopar guy don't 'ya.

Yes it is a similar design, but No, Randy makes it specifically to fit the lower valance of the '67-'69 Barracuda. He just recently added this to his offerings, I believe I have the second one he sold prior to him listing them officially.

HAHA.... just an observation... but i think it looks great on it... it really fits the design cues of the front end...

A few more pictures with the new spoiler.

Hood closes now. The air cleaner that came with the throttle body conversion was too tall to clear the hood. Had a one off six pack air cleaner made for the car, the base will be painted black and the top Hemi orange with a 440 6bbl decal. For car show purposes I will probably take the air cleaner off and display it in the trunk and put a lexan cover over the throttles.

About another week to go on body work before primer, blocking and then finally paint.

this car looks better everytime I see it

[mmosley]

Visited the car in paint jail today. A few updated pictures... body work is a painfully slow process.

[mmosley]

More bodywork... new wheels. "Track wheels" are SVE Mustang Drift wheels.
Front is 18x9 with 35mm offset for a 2005-2014 Mustang, rear is 18x10 with 22mm offset for a 1994-2004 Mustang.
Ordered Falken Azenis RT-615K tires 255/40-18 Front, 295/40-18 Rear.

Those wheels look sweet.

Great project. I see your car every time I go up there. I wish they'd hurry with yours so they could get to mine. I have the Camaro two slots down from you (in background of your hood pic).

have you decided on seats? Theres enough cars there that we should be able to order a few sets of seats and get a great discount

Well, the YELLOW camaro on the other side of yours is in front of mine... so we both are waiting. And the little side projects keep sneaking in... I guess it will all get done eventually. Is yours going to be yellow also? Mine is bucking the trend - it will be green!

Randy - I decided I am waiting until I am done with almost everything else. They would just be in the way for a while. I am leaning heavily towards the Scat Procar Rally seats. I will probably go by the shop tomorrow. I have the front tires.

[icemanrd19]

i could prob make it at 12 or 1

255/40-18 on 18x9 SVE Drift wheel made to fit a 2014 Mustang. '75 A body disc spindle with Dr Diff 13" "Brembo" brake kit.

Diameter: 18 inch
Width: 9 inch
Offset: +35 mm.
Backspacing: 6.38 in.
Bolt Circle: 4.5 in.

Rear tires come in next week.

[linkstar69]

That's a win.

[juststout]

Love this build, following it closely, I have a 69 cuda notch that i hope one day will get the same treatment.

[mmosley]

Rear tires are on. 18x10 with a 295/40-18. I tested with a 1" spacer, at that point the tire still clears the stock lip by 1/2" on the outside. On the inside clearance is 2-1/4" at the closest point. 335 will fit easily, 345 would be tight.
