After I installed all my glass and new weather strips in my 68 mine were very stiff also, I wiped down all of the channels with lemon pledge. I know it sounds weird but I sprayed the lemon pledge on a clean rag and inserted the rag into the glass channels and I wiped them down a few times. No...
Everyone has their own way of doing things, that's what makes this hobby so great. Everyone has their own car and they can do whatever and however they want with it, but I am a firm believer of do it once and do it right and I sure don't want to have it yanked out again because of a problem. I...
I'm very happy for you guys who don't use sealer, you saved $12.00. This same sealant was used on my 66 Barracuda and 14 years later still no leaks and I don't expect the new owner of the car to ever have any leaks either. It's a small fee for insurance and a good time to install it when you are...
For those of you who are still wondering about the windshield and back window molding clips, I have finally installed both my front and back windows and the clips for the moldings were spot on from DMT no problems at all. I did buy some off of eBay first but after comparing them with the ones I...
It was like a midsummer day here in Michigan yesterday, in the 70's so I took advantage of the warmth called my buddy Eric who is a glass install guy and we put in the new windshield and the back glass. The back glass was still the factory original oem glass that I took out along with the...
Thanks guys, it was such a clean cut that I never noticed or felt it there. Now I just need to splice a new end on it along with a grommet and I will be good to go.
Thanks again
Bob
I am going to have to look at my rear harness a little better, I did not see it in there. I hope I just overlooked it, may have been cut off and I missed it. Thanks for the pictures
Does anyone have or can post a picture of what the factory 1968 Barracuda rear bumper license lite jumper wire looks like. The FSM shows that it runs from the drivers side tail lite over to the license lite, but does not show the wire itself. My tail lite has two bare connectors on the wires, I...
Thanks, the owner at that time gave me a tour of his shop when I dropped it off. There were hundreds of bezels all over the place from all makes and models, some already done, some in the process, and lots still waiting to be worked on. What a cool place to see
Here is the one that I am building right now, it to is a 68 fastback formula S 340 car. This car had not seen the sun since 1984, it had some rust behind the rear wheel wells, and just about everything under the hood along with the trans and drive shaft was missing. There were no seats and what...
I received my tach back today from Mr.heaterbox and being 70* here in Michigan it was a perfect day to re-install it back in the dash. It works like a charm, they had it for about 5 weeks and they do very nice work. Thanks to Steve (4spdragtop) for the tip on Mr.heaterbox I am very happy. By the...
