I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm a '64 Plymouth Barracuda. I'm a Taurus. I like classic rock and roll, long strolls down Highway 280, and chirps when shifting into second gear.

My current driver is taking really good care of me. He's already rebuilt my Demon Carb, installed a new gas pedal, fixed my speedometer, installed a Grant steering wheel, and dressed up my engine. Oh, did I mention that I'm not a stocker? Sorry, I should have thought about that. I'm running a 340 "baby Hemi" out of a 1970 Dodge Dart Swinger. My front and back ends are from a 1972 Plymouth Duster (front disc brakes, beefier differential). My Rallye wheels are from a 1972 Road Runner.

New seats, new carpet and new headliner are in! Now for the new gauges, custom console, and Hurst shifter! I'm so excited.
