Looking good Blue!
Re: Blue's Barracuda
Replaced the fronts Today. The new lenses came with a new chrome centre spot and bulb cover to fit, but as usual being repro they didn’t fit right so I cleaned up and reused the originals.

Re: Blue's Barracuda
Those lens look great. Very impressive work. You sure know your stuff.
Re: Blue's Barracuda
What is it with these repo parts that don't even fit
...such a common story, I've had to reuse parts myself for that reason......

Re: Blue's Barracuda
First chance I've had to get the bugger out this year! Tuning run to dial in the new AED carb, now running well and I much prefer the snappy response from the 4.10s. It now drives the best it ever has since I've owned it I reckon.
