Did you know a 71 Barrcuda body will slip over an '01 Viper without it's body? Don't know why you'd not be happy with either, and want both in one car

They made them at http://www.timemachinesinc.com/pastcustoms/71vipercuda/ 6 years ago, just an extra floor structure, wheel tub work, and add a couple inches to the Viper frame rails to extend the wheel base for the cuda wheel locations.

Wrecked Vipers are the speciality of X2 Collision in Maryville Illinois http://www.x2builders.com/default.asp

Troy Brumbalow's Franken'cuda, design by Pfaff Design

Like almost half the cars I see at car shows and SEMA, it was made to tour, show, and sell. 3 months later, it's at auction in the January Barrett Jackson http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2011/01/famous-vehicles-for-sale-at-barrett.html

Ryan's 68 Barracuda at it's first San Diego cruise and I happened to be at the right place at the right time...

Lots of rear tires, looks really good!

He's owned it for 12 years if I remember correctly what he said, and spent about a week getting it back up and running so it come come out and cruise before the cruise season was over for this summer. Nice guy, didn't mind talking for a while about his Barracuda, and showing the neat fold down panel to open the trunk area to the fold down rear seat, like the 66 Charger.

Nice looking upholstery, just like the type that was in my Superbee

The fold down panel demonstrated in up^ and down v

Small block that started life as a 318... it sounds really very healthy, 8 3/4 resting on springs moved inward with a shackle relocation kit, and no tubs!
