I've recently been getting really into that particular body style, but haven't really seen any that have been given the full pro-touring treatment. Anyone have any pics? Love the fastbacks.

I stumbled upon this pro-street'd one, which also looks pretty sweet.

I prefer these body styles over the 70's I also like the coupes too.

I don't recall ever seeing one PT, but heres a cool rendering...

Those are bitchin' and would make a great P-T car in coupe or fastback form. I actually lean toward the coupes personally. You could do it pretty reasonably with the new Hotchkis Mopar kit too.

Not a fasback and low on the bling aspect of Pro Touring....

I've always had a vision of re-designing that rear panel, and continuing the tail lamps following around the inlay, like they've started haha.

I'm probably not the first person to think about it, but I've never seen it done LOL

Looking good, Steve. What does your car weigh?

Looking good, Steve. What does your car weigh?

Years ago on a Co-op grain elevator scale it was 3350 lbs with:

Cast iron exhaust manifolds
aluminum intake
cast iron heads
stock brass radiator
cast iron water pump
15x7 steel police rims at that time (thicker/heavier than rallye 15x7's)
12" upgraded stock front disks, stock cast iron calipers

I've never got it on a set of four good digital scale pads so I don't know how accurate that 3350 number is.

That Bob Reed's cruiser 67 Barracuda with a nice complement of choice 68 trim mixed in. He has a Red 68 Barracuda (Car Craft?) that has a more racey setup in it.

Some specs:
-360 magnum stroked to 408
-Tremec 5
-Willwood 6-piston brakes
-Bob's suspension mods

I'm loving that one. The rear end of the 67' looks so proper with a huge tire underneath it. I'd love to build something like that one day.
