Default 1968 Barracuda

Not a chevy but a cool fast car anyhow.

I dont have the money now to finish.

1968 Barracuda fast back
451 stroker
727 trans.
8 3/4 rear end ladder bar setup with coil overs
New interior with new racing seats, I do have 5 way harnesses just have not installed them yet.
New Autometer gauges, Ultralite
Car has been rewired with a haywire wiring harness.

It only has a mini tube so you can get a good size tire under it.

If you have any questions just ask away.

Price 10,000 OBO

It is ready as a street/strip car. The only thing needed for the street is rear tires as the state of Missouri does not allow slicks.

What do you have to trade I may br interested.

I am trying to do a LS swap into my '79 Malibu, and still trying to finish the resto mode on my '72 Chevelle.

Nice Mopar, have you ever had it out at Rogersville (Ozark Dragstrip)?, just curious what it'll run, i'm sure it should hit mid 11s with that 451, maybe better, whats done to the engine/trans? i'm a Mopar fan myself, owned many.

Ya I have had it at rogersville, It ran a 8.30. With a lower set of gears, and a stall converter it would be a little quicker.

I am selling because i want to finish my 72 chevelle and my 6.0 swap on my 79 malibu.

Really have thought hard about swapping in a ls motor into it. Would like to with a new hemi but they are still a little on the expensive side.

Damn, thats all it went , what was the 60ft. on that 8.30 & was it hookin, my 451 was in the 7.5s with horrible 60fts, started going 7.2s in no time, with a better stall it got into the 6.9s @ 98-99, this was with stock port 906s & a XE284H cam, 750 holley, 4.11s. Don't blame it on that 451, there screamers if done right. Maybe i need to tweak on it for ya .

It was last year when I ran it and I dont have the slips on it. And I cant recall the 60ft times.

What gears are you running?

I have 4.11 and stock stall, I think this is alot of what the problem is. A little tinkering wont hurt either.
