Spring has arrived and soon it will be time to get my 66 Barracuda out and about. There are some things I know need work before I can be confident in driving around to shows, meets etc. The things I know I need is front end work and a leaky auto transmission. There are some garages around that...

I was thinking of changing current air cleaner to something newer (chromed?). What to do with the connection to the air breather on the valve cover? Do I need that connection?

When I bought my 66 B'cuda the engine and transmission was replaced. The 273 w/auto was replaced with a 360 w/ auto. The information on the source for the engine is long forgotten/misplaced. I believe it was from a 72-75 Mopar. Before I start sourcing parts for the car, mainly ignition, I would...

I replaced the power assist unit and the master cylinder in my 66 Barracuda last fall. When I tried to bleed the system, the last wheel cylinder (front drivers side) wouldn't bleed. I replaced the wheel cylinder with a new one and went through the bleeding procedure again. When I got to the...

I'm in process of removing the front driver side wheel cylinder from my '66 Barracuda. I'm to the point of removing the flexible brake line. I was able to get the line loose but I can't continue to unscrew the line from the cylinder because the line is fixed at the other end at a bracket and...

My 66 Barracuda w/ an original Midland-Ross power brake booster and single master cylinder doesn't seem to be working properly. With the engine off I get some resistance on the pedal. With the engine running the pedal goes to the floor. With the engine running I've seen smoke coming from the...

There are two problems that cropped up this spring. Started up my '66 Barracuda this spring for the first time since last fall. Didn't have any trouble with starting it. I ran it for a couple of minutes. When I kicked it down to idle it stalled. I was able to start it again but the same thing...

I'm missing the metal trim pieces that go on the hinged panel in the rear of my 66 Barracuda. This panel covers the spare wheel well when in the down position and when in the up position the panel separates the trunk area from the area behind the rear seat.

I'm in need of the trim on the security panel in my '66 Fastback. I'm referring to the hinged panel that separates the cargo area from the spare tire area. I think I've found some for a '67 fastback. Would these work in a '66?

I've tried several times to install my new headliner in my 66. I bought the headliner from Legendary and believe its of high quality. I was very careful in taking the bows out of the old headliner and putting them in the new one in the correct order. The problem I'm having is getting the bows to...

66 Barracuda, 360 auto Several months ago I made the mistake of working on my dash without disconnecting the battery. The result was disastrous. There was smoke, crackling and burning. Of course, after that I couldn't start the car and no electrical accessories worked. I took my time and went...

Car 66 Barracuda, 360, auto I was trying to solve a problem with a non functioning temp gauge. In the process of looking for connection problems I removed the gauge cluster. After finding nothing I attempted to put everything back but shorted the ignition switch (didn't disconnect the battery)...

I'm at the early stages of restoring my 66 Barracuda. There are a couple of gaskets/seals I noticed are missing. Two are on the firewall and are oblong. Approx. 1-7/8" by 1-1/4" and 3" by 1-3/8". The other one is round approx. 5" dia and at the bottom of the spare tire well and above the gas...

I'm going to change the pan gasket and filter on my 727. All evidence leads me to believe it's the gasket that's leaking. When I drain the fluid I plan on using a clean container. Should I reuse the fluid? If I do should I do any filtering before I add the fluid back in? If I should use new...

I've been looking for a good source of information on 60s Plymouth/Chryslers and I think this is it. I've had a 66 Barracuda for a number of years. Did some restoration when I first got it but it's been sitting for quite a while. This year I finally got off my rear end and decided to get back to...
