pitch black cuda project

Bought my fathers 66 Barracuda, 273 commando, factory ac. pretty simple really, I want to put better brakes, better lights, bigger wheels, and black the whole car out.
This is what I started with......


This is where I want to go with it...


And this is where I am at currently.....

You said it. Rendering is awesome. I like the vision of tha car.

That thing looks awesome. What are your plans for the suspension to get the stance in the rendering?

[73chally]

Just got back from the shop they are doing a great job.

As for how to get that stance....will be challenging, there are no kits for early a body mopars. Switching to 4 wheel disc brakes with 2 inch drop spindles in front, and I will have a little room to play with torsion bar adjustment. Rear spring relocation kit, with a 1 inch drop should work for the back.

Have you looked at the Reilly Motorsports stuff? They have a complete coilover front suspension that bolts in with no mods and a coilover rear 4 link that is almost a bolt in (have to weld one bar above the axle) available for the 62-66 A-bodies.
