He tossed me the keys right after it was done and told me to take it out and see what I thought of it. Blew my mind when he did that, just like the time he asked me to take the Barracuda and give it a bath, it's got a 630 horsepower 426 Hemi in it.

Man I would LOVE-E-E to be your long lost brother? That's great that you both enjoy the same things! We ain't here for all that long, But MAN the memories that's forever!!! By the way, does the cuda have a stroker, or a Stage V conversion/ (440 block Allium. 426 heads). That thing has to scream!!! Didn't catch if it was a 4 speed or not. Either or sounds sweet.

The Barracuda is a '74 with a built '68 426 Hemi and an A727-B Torqueflite with a manual valve body. Here's a few pictures of the car. The first is at a local Mopar show, thats my Roadrunner next to his Barracuda. The second is the 426 Hemi that's in it.

Both vehicles are Primo!!! I'm working on a 426 conversion motor myself. You guys seem like me, what's the sense of owning a muscle car and just trailering around? Each to his own I say!! Muscles are made to flex!!!!

I'm with you all the way on that one. I have wanted to get the Hemi conversion for my 440, but it's a matter of money. Maybe one of these days I'll be able to get them.[sm=smiley13.gif][sm=smiley2.gif]

Are you going to be going to the Chrysler Classics this month on the 21-23 at National Trails Raceway in Columbus, OH? My dad and I will both be there, him with this Charger and me with my SRT-4, but I may bring the Roadrunner if I can get enough money for the gas for it.[sm=smiley19.gif] I will at least cruise Brice Rd. with the Roadrunner if possible.[sm=smiley20.gif][sm=smiley16.gif]

Not gonna be able to get out there. My car club has a prior commitment in New Jersey. We've been invited to some sort of Wheels n Wings show. I plan on getting my beeper's picture taken next to a Chance Vought F4U Corsair if possible.
