So there might be rumors online that I have picked up a new (to me) project car....I can say, the rumors are true. I sold the engine out of the Duster, and I am selling the Duster and I bought somthing very different....What is it? Well I might be in a bit too deep on this one as its more than I normally tackle and I may be moving to another state next summer, but I needed somthing to do this winter.....Its just a roller right now, but here is a sneak peek.

Looks awesome, what are you thinking about doing for driveline? That's the fun part....The budget allows for a bunch of room on this one. But I would like to work that out as I go. I was on the phone yesterday with Arrington about the new G3 block coming out, and how far you can take it....There is also a running 605 Hemi and trans sitting here in my 70 Cuda that would look great with a tunnel ram and dual TBI's....Or? I was also on the phone last week with the The Blower Shop, and 8-71's...So I guess I am open....Wedge, Hemi, G3...And when I say G3, here is what I mean: https://www.powernationtv.com/episode/HP2012-05/newstalgia-blown-hemi

Did you buy that from Jim? That looks like the "Almost funny" Barracuda he built for Drag Week.

Its definitely someone he knows and its from his home town, but is not Jim's, but it is similar. I actually wanted to buy his as a roller and build my own drive train for Drag Week. I do not believe he wants to sell it just yet. But he did take his other car to Drag Week this year, So I am not sure what is up with it.

Reminds me of the Sox and Martin 66 Barracuda funny car but looks so much better. Especially with the blower hat sticking out! I am open to ideas....Kinda why I started this thread....
