I got this kit from ebay. I thought it was a Premiere Chevy Corvair!

What was inside was an entirely different story!

An AMT 1965 Plymouth Barracuda! And not all of it either! I raided a Fireball 500 kit for the chassis,got some redline tires and rally wheels from the parts box, ordered some chrome bits from Modelhaus, and painted it according to a pic I got from a Plymouth sales brochure. I used the slant six from the kit. Here's Barry!!!!

Thanks for looking! Hope you like Barry!!!

I always liked the first generation Barracuda, and I didn't want to toss this one into the parts bin, so I dug up what Barry needed to soldier on as a complete build! hahaha
