'64 Plymouth Barracuda 318

Don's '64 Plymouth Barracuda has a 318cid motor with a 340 cam & other internal goodies + a 650cfm carb & puts out 275 bhp.

He's had it since 1998 & drives it between 1,000-2,000 miles a year.

Great shots of a timeless little car. Many people don't like the "big window" but I always thought they were cool. My favorite year was probably '68. I also liked the 70-71 "looks" the but huge doors and spot-light lighted dash was a downer.

Not my kind of plymouth I like, but it is so nice to see those oldies not in the crusher. Very nice photos by the way.

I had a '65 & was shooting a '70 in the studio when I decided I'd better order my '69 383 "S" while I still could. It made a great 141mph tow car with a lot of room for spares.

I agree. Luckily, the guy I sold my '69 to was going to rebuild it. Wish I'd kept it as I haven't seen one like it since.

Thanks for the comments!

at the time you probably needed the money and didn't see too far ahead , like most everyone (at the time)
lol

hindsight can be wonderful


its a beauty alright

Gas prices were up, & it had rusted out from under me, so I didn't ask much for it. I should have stored it at my Mothers.

Mine was what I call, "Cop-Catcher RED!" Now I have a nice anonymous black one.

I haven't seen anything new from you for awhile, Marie. Whasup?

Nice shots.

What is with the white to black gradient in the first pic?

Among other reasons, I upgraded to color managed Firefox 3 & I wanted a reference with other browsers.
Interesting that after over 200 views, you were the only person to see & comment in it?

LOL! I have new monitor and I'm worried like hell about my exposures being right, so I guess i just NEEDED to see it!

What are your other reasons?!

Don't go by these shots. And be aware that different browsers may display differently.

Low res, non-standard crops, & crud in the images make it hard to get a good free print?

Nice car, that car looks familiar. Your shots make me want to go and pay some much needed attention to my '67 Fastback!

Get it out & let us see it!

I'll see if I can do a sad garage shot tomorrow. I haven't driven her all summer.
