    New Guy from Ontario

     



    Hello Everyone,

    I came across this forum after discovering it in my web site's logs. I have a 1965 Barracuda which is getting a disc brake upgrade. I also have a 1972 Duster that was a former drag car in NC. As it didn't come with an engine, I have plans to transplant the 440 from my 78 New Yorker in it.

    I'm also a member of ACCCC and Rods & Relics. R&R has a an annual car show coming up in June and I'll post some information about it in the events section.

    Welcome Aboad; This is a great site with lots of great people on here.
    Enjoy the site, sound like you've got some really nice cars.
    I miss my old 71 Charger, though something was allways breaking, it kept me busy.
    Them 426's and the 440's tend to break things when they get torqued up. HE! HE! HE! Kurt

    Barracuda & Valiant

     



    Originally, the Barracuda was introduced as the fastback option for the Valiant in 1964. Later on, it became it's own model.
