This awesome M46 barracuda was restored by Ron Carlson in North Dakota.
It was at the Toppers show in the same state in March.
  This car is an EV2 Torred bottom and EV2 Top colored car. 
The stripes are not installed on the car as Ron had to get the stripes made at a local graphics shop.  Performance car graphics kept Ron hanging for almost 2 years awaiting a set that never was made.
 Reproduction scoops are present as originals are very difficult to find. 
 The current owners dad purchased the car after his senior year, went to a tech college for 2 years. Sold it to his room-mate after college. Years went by the son located & spoke with the then room-mate a number of times and convinced him into selling the car back. The car has alot of sentimental value. 
  I am glad it is restored.  I think, this is the only "restored" M46 out there. 

  Al's was close but not near exact as it had several changes.

This is all that I have at the moment.
Thanks to several members of the multiple boards for providing me with pictures from the show.  Looks like it was a fun time!

This is one beautiful car!!

That is a stunning looking combination. The blackout lower body line makes it look like it's floating
The only thing flat earthers fear, is sphere itself.

It definitely is a unique look.  Floating is a good way to describe it.
I've not seen one out on the blacktop and I bet a black road would accentuate the floating look.   :twothumbsup:

Can you post the fender tag information?  It is very grainy in the picture of it. Looks to have no rallye mirrors listed on the tag.

My hat is tipped to Ron.(member yet?) If there ever was a M46 package barracuda to do properly, it would be this. EV2, 383hp and a 4spd.

 I think that dual mirrors are part of the package. Mine has them, (painted) and the ones that I've seen had them.
avatar_cuda hunter @cuda hunter any tag details to confirm?

It is very different to have people asking me for a fender tag readout!  I'm always the one hounding folks for that. 

These are all that I have of the fender tag. 
4 people sent pictures but not one really good picture of the tag.
EV2 and FE5 have got to be the most difficult colors to get proper fender tag pictures of. 
  Apparently the car also retains it's broadcast sheet. 
Fender tag, broadcast sheet and that Trim Electrical sheet.
Surely there must be more.   

I have not seen and do not have that type of 'TRIM' sheet in any of my records. 
Was/is that sheet similar to the "Special Paint" build sheet that I have pictures of from bs23G0B103140 ?

I would like to thank a few people for their time in helping me get info and pictures of this car.

Obviously, Ron Carlson , The Restorer of the car.  He does awesome work and I hope I have helped him acquire at least one more restoration.
If I get his actual business name I will post it here.

@polara_500_jr (FcbO) for the many pictures he sent.  I have yet to go through all of them but will do so and post here. Turns out he is the first cousin of the owner! 

avatar_Lunchbox @Lunchbox  (febo)   for researching and filling me in on multiple facets of this car, the restorer and everything surrounding it.   

@HWYCRZR   (FCBO)  For multiple pictures and information about the car as well. 

No specific order, Very appreciative to yal for helping me add yet another car to my kind of registry and for just making it happen.   
Yal are awesome!!

Very nice car!

Why are the fender bolts black phosphate vs body color?
