My father bought me this 1974 Barracuda in 1977, from the original owner, when I was in high school. I moved to Texas in 1986 and couldn't take it so I kept it at my dads. Knowing it would ruin sitting outside, in 1992 my dad sold it back to the original owner. Fast forward 28 years, I finally tracked down the car, at the beginning of 2020, still owned by the man my father sold it back to. After a lot of prayers and a 30 min talk, we both agreed it was time for me to get it back once again. Here is it now....

That's a great looking car!  Too cool you got your car back and the original owner also got his car back again.  Pretty awesome experience for the both of you.

Serendipity is the word that comes to mind, and I hope you enjoy the car all the more due to the circumstances. Welcome to the site from Ontario,  :canada:
