With those wheels your definition of a period correct restoration is way different than mine lol

Re: BO29 Barracuda

Just saying what I was told. I know there is tons of paperwork including Galen Govier but I haven't been privy to it yet. I will see the paperwork soon.

Re: BO29 Barracuda

My Mopar friends have told me in the past Govier has blessed some non righteous cars.

Re: BO29 Barracuda

While it does look nice, I'd hardly call it a "period correct resto" unless the "period" is the '80s - '90s. Always wanted one of these or a Dart, but it seems GM race cars seem to find me, not the other way around. Good luck getting it sold.

Re: BO29 Barracuda

OK, I hear you. Anyway you cut it, it is a real BO29 car and pretty nice.
