Corey, It sounds like you may have gotten a hull that was already stripped of hardware?? Pictures of your project would be great. We love them! What's the condition? Stringers? Engine?
I hate to say this but the windshield will be a hard find. You may need to find another boat for parts. Seats were ply and upholstered.
Welcome to CCfan. It's absolutely the best site for old CC's!

Here's a picture of the boat on Jackson Lake. The boat was my neighbors across the street. Glad he got it sold to someone who is gonna restore it.

Wasn't there something unusual about this boat, like Holman Moody power or an SS? And now it's in Mississppi? We need pictures

Any Barracuda's windshield can be used. Taylor Made used to make plastic ones not sure they still do. Very expensive though. You don't need a windshield right now you can finish the boat and use it until you find one,I did for years on mine. http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=4402&sort=&pagenum=1" rel="nofollow - This Cuda of Dave's came from the factory with this windshield on it maybe it will be easier to find one of them

Nope... the Barracuda is much wider in the windshield area.

A friend of mine stripped a Barracuda recently. It had the bucket seats and center console. I think the windshield is glass. I will find out more specifics and let you know it will probably be after New Years day before I have you an answer.
