Ric Barry has a number of collector cars in his stable, including a 65 Comet with fuel injection. Don't know the provenence of the car but it is amaculate. (sp) Note the restored to original race condition A/MP "MIMI"
Camaro in the background. Re-done by John Acarino also of Syracuse, NY. They were both big players in the S/S wars in Central N.Y. in the late
60's and 70's.
Ric had an 83 H/O for sale back a couple of years ago with VERY low miles and it sold before I could even post a bid. Wanted it badly.

Ric is the sandy blonde haired man standing next to the passenger door of the Cuda. I think, but am not at all sure that John Acarino is the gentleman standing between the 2 cars. It has been many years since I have seen him. I have a photo of the S/S Camaro they fielded together that I'll scan in and post.
