96 Barracuda A2E

[CTK]

I really like how the top and down tubes join before the headtube.

(I'm really looking forward to getting mine!)

Progress?

Any news on this build,working on my 96' A2E as well, could use some inspiration.

Bit of an update, almost 12months since the last but.....

She's Finished


Got my bum into gear sent it off to the powder coaters and had a cherry red put on the rear of the bike, not the original finish but as close as I could get. I was a bit dissapointed that they didnt follow instructions and the finish was too far along the tubes. But hey thats life the overall result came out pretty good anyway.

A Few shots as she went together

And then just like that.

Some shots of the detail.

Now remember I said I had a color scheme in mind when I started can anyone guess what it was???

Tight on for time right now. There is some more shots to come and a real interesting peice of Barracuda history for us here in Australia.

On the yet to get list:
Saddle- Would like a red flite (any suggestions)

Saw this thread and remembered I still have the Barracuda badged bar ends and Ti railed saddle off my old A2X in boxes out in the garage. Couldn't find the bar ends, and thought the saddle was in better shape than it really is. Oh well.
