Welcome from B.C. Canada.

Thanks for the welcome....as for the cars,

The 70 Droptop...the car was just a tub when it was bought in 86. what you are seeing now, is what my dad had put together after getting it straightened out, going off of memory, it was originally B5 with black top....

The 70 HDTP....it came out of Interior Alaska when at the time, they did not use salt or anything on the roads. bottom side of car is nearly pristine. the reason that the rear quarters look so bad, someone before me, had taken the car apart and it had gotten passed around. Someone carved out the trunk floor for their 71 Barracuda....the car was going to be left for scrap....I got it and a 73 Cuda for $300.00.....the 73 was missing everything from behind the rear seats, but the tub was once again, immaculate....also, the 70 HDTP is a factory flaw car, in that, it is a true BS23 car, but the tail panel is the BARRACUDA....

The 72....it was bought with the original motor/transmission being gone....had a 318 and a frankenstein 4 speed. I had bought it for the motor/trans....paid $50 for it back in 89.....yes, it was a beautiful car when new, but rust has nearly devoured this Penstar beauty.

This is what my yard looked like when I was still in Alaska....the two Barracudas on the left, I had gotten from a deceased friends ex-wife. She had the cars in her yard, and asked that if I were to get a 68 dodge wagon towed for scrap, I could have the 2 Barracudas....so, in essence I got those two cars for $100....the black one, I had owned prior to my friend getting it....I bought it out of a junkyard in AK, fixed it up while in the military and sold it like a dumbass....should have kept it....then when I got it back, it was one of the first cars that I had sent out to Michigan and it helped to fund the other 4 that I had purchased and sent out of state....win some, lose some....

this is how I found my 70 HDTP....it along with a 73 Cuda tub for $300.00

My 73 Cuda tub, looked like hell, but a smorgasbord of usable parts

You are welcome! that is an impressive collection you have there. I see that you have heavy equipment in the back ground.

That is my mom and dad's place....I am in Florida and they are in Upper Michigan....I am soon to be heading that way....

And to be perfectly honest, I have several B bodies as well....as soon as I get moved, I will be listing the collection of parts that I have gathered over the years. I had 5 sets of rust free Challenger doors at one time, but I could not take them with me....but once I get to Michigan, I will go thru what I have and be looking forward to making deals with people....

Welcome from  and I see the pack rat bug is pretty common after all, eh? There's some good project materials there for sure!
