My first car was a '65 Barracuda, which sounds good except that until '67
they were really just fastback Valiants. Its the automotive equivalent of
wearing these 'tard shoes. :-)

Frankie froglegs is still trying to re-build his Cuda...one day he'll have
it back...

My first car was a Toyota, 98 horsepower <sigh>...I couldn't get past 55mph

Mine too. Not sure what the HP was but it wasn't a lot. It was an '86
Tercel wagon (4WD). I bought it in about '92 with 98,000 Miles on it.
It sure was dependable and provided a great canvas to stick my Zappa for
President and Mean People Suck stickers...

Mine was a Datsun B210 Honey Bee. Talk about geeky. It had about 85 hp.

Man, those things

My brother had one of those. It wasn't his first car, that was a Vega
which fell apart on the way home from buying it. He ended up parting it
out when the seller wouldn't do anything for him and he actually made
money. He's in banking now and does well at it!

Oh, yeah, I danced with a few later-model Barracudas -- taught me
the value of fatter tires for one thing! Great-looking cars...

Loved those 70-72 E-bodies. Actually I bought a '67 Barracuda about 20
years ago. I just had to have a real 'Cuda before I die. I felt like
quite the badass driving a fast car in the mid-80s. :-)

You HAVE seen the '08 Challenger, haven't you?

Well, Challengers were Chargers' kid brothers -- fast and nimble, but no
Golden Child! (Still, new ones look hot. Hope they get the quality at least
decent.)

Jeez . . all they did was smooth out the old body style. At least the
mustang is the melding of old and new. I think they did do one (bad)
thing to the body, and that is to make the grill smaller in proportion
to the front end . . looks a little weird IMO.

. the later Barracudas are just spectacular. Got any pics?

I'm sure there's one buried around here somewhere, but I doubt I'll ever
find it. The '67 coupes weren't beautiful, and this wasn't one of the more
beautiful '67s. :-)

That was what I liked about it! When I first saw one, it was like they'd
updated the e-body I always wanted, just for me. I'm really struggling
with the decision to get something with gas mileage that poor, though.

Your self-importance is underwhelming. How can you be paranoid if
everyone's out to get you? Go play on the freeway now, little man.

Should be fine as long as you don't drive it!
