I finally have this completed! Powder coated frame, new M&H harness. I refurbished the dash pad myself, not great but decent for a driver and sometime down the road I'll have it redone professionally. Replaced the empty clock hole with a tachometer. Rebuilt/updated the stock radio by removing the old guts and installing a Bluetooth/USB board while still using the original volume knob (USB port in the glove box) - the radio is on its own fused power switch so that I can play tunes in it while walking a show with the keys still in my pocket. Disabled the AMP gauge in favor of a triple gauge set for better readings.




1970 Barracuda, B5/B5, 225 slant 6, 3spd. Base model, bare bones. LA built, 1st week of production

Nice job! I have a bluetooth radio but my exhaust & other car noises are so loud I can't use it!

This one is strictly for the mono speaker in the dash for car shows while it's sitting. I'll have another hidden stereo system for the real sound.
