Everything but the chasis... Barrett sold it. Wrecked a week or two later. Then rebuilt on a Balck 77 Turbo Chasis... Then I bought , Wrecked it shortly after. Now it is Tangerine... Same drive train suspension etc...
I hope the thing is not cursed..
Like your hot rod by the way. I think I saw it at R gruppe a couple of years ago. Very nice.

Maybe it got the curse from my car. I've also gone through more than one tub. In my case, though, it's always been the driver's fault.

Nice car. Instead of worrying about the past, I suggest you celebrate the present and have a christening. Pour a little wine on the bow, burn a little sage, have a little party with the guys who built her, and bless the car's future. Driver's Ed., or traffic safety course wouldn't hurt either, and might get you a reduction on your insurance.
The car is fine. Quite fine in fact. What you want to change is in your mind. Consider that this is not your old car, but a new chassis. Start referring to it as the 74 Carrera. That has a nice ring, doesn't it ?
Thanks for posting the pictures of your new Carrera. I love the toy shot.

I spent the last 2 days of dry weather driving the wheels off it... Ahhhhh, Just like I remember....

Was this the car at one time? If so, I saw it at PIR a few years ago. It was beautiful then and even more beautiful now.

That's one mean looking beast. I love it. It's killing me to know what's in that big box in your garage... Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought him back.

Anyone need a good scooter, I have the best. SYM was the only scooter to make it accross the country in the Gumball... I have over 100 of them... No China crap, the good stuff.... I will make you a great deal...They work great in the race trailer, and if your tow car breaks down you can drive it home...
