Well... I have looked at my options and decided that I am ready for my first project car. I have already started saving for the initial buy and have a final goal set in mind already. I am planning on purchasing a 1973 barracuda (probably just a rolling chassis with no rust or minimal surface rust) and turning it into a monster. I am not going for an original 'cuda though... oh no. Every cuda that is not a trailer queen that I have seen has been set up as a drag car, other than the occasional AAR. I have decided to make a 400 horse circuit racer.

loose plans:
- Flat (maybe satin) black paint
- Body will be shaved
- Custom LED tails (LED ring around standard bulb in original housing)
- Minimal chrome if any
- Very low with a mean coilover setup
- Black rims of some kind (still debating what style)
- 18" rims with 275s up front and 295-305 in back
- Full cage inside
- Racing buckets with 5 point harnesses
- Probably go for a 340ci motor with a Holley 4 barrel
- If i want more power, crate hemi (maybe a blower, but thats a bit much for circuit use)
- All interior lighting will be red providing a "military" look

This car will be extremely sparse on the interior to save weight. and pretty much everything will be black save for the red lighting. Its an expensive project, but I am stretching it out over a long time, so it's not unreasonable. I will post a photoshop later of what it may look like but for now, picture a gorgeous stealth bomber on wheels.

EDIT: and no, i am not selling the PT, I still love it and it is the perfect runabout
