    Old rusted wiring connections

    Any tips on removing the old harness from these connections that go to the front parking lights? 1965 Barracuda. I've nearly destroyed one of them and it wont come out. Not concerned about the 60 yr old harness, it's going to the trash, but trying not to mess up the connector. One of the...

    Rear shocks / struts

    Hello. So I knew I had the tow package but discovered this also gave me the 3.23 gears instead of the typical 2.93. Another pretty cool thing about this old 65 Cuda. A few questions about this picture. Trying to address some suspension issues while the gas tank is out of the way. I have KYB...

    Distributor Novice

    I'm as green as can be messing with distributors. Never even pulled one out of a car till now. This was pulled from my 273 4bbl, 65 Barracuda. A few probably stupid questions, but I couldn't find a distributors for dummies book. Where under the crud can I find a distributor number? I...

    Adding timing chain tensioner

    Has anyone added a timing chain tensioner when rebuilding a small block (273)? If so, I'm looking for information on what tensioner you used. My chain has a horrible amount of slack, so will likely need replaced. I've heard the tensioner is a great little upgrade to the timing chain and is...

    Rare 65 Barracuda Formula S

    I came across this car. Very few left with factory disc brakes, and very few left with a vinyl top. The color is original also, and not a color option for 1965. (Thus the 999 paint code) I thought many here would enjoy checking it out, since I'm not bidding! lol...

    [FOR SALE] Carter AFB 4bbl Carburetor 3858s date Code C4

    Appears to be an early 64 carb, mostly on the C body 413's I understand, but would probably work on several big blocks such as a 383 or 426. Stamp code is difficult to read but I believe it says C4 below the 3858. Carb has been sitting, will need kit. Secondaries may be frozen so will need...

    My 65 Barracuda came equipped with the Bendix power brake set up with the vacuum canister on the fender. The canister appears to be in great shape for it's age, I'm going to pull it off and make sure it's holding air then freshen it up. The piece in the pictures if between the intake and...

    65 Barrucuda fuse box

    What are my best options here? I've seen the repo boxes for $95 but rather not. I believe I've found the correct clips to replace these. As you can see on clip is missing. What would this 20a fuse be protecting? Box says ACC and RR-A/C. This is a non AC car. Preference would be to clean up...

    Blower motor blues

    This thing sounds like someone was dying when you turned it on, so the heater box is out of the 65 Baracuda. After three decades of sitting it all needed done anyway. Any tips on getting this off? Set screw is out, nothing budging. Is it easier just to buy a new squirrel cage? I had planned...

    65 Commando stock brake set up

    As some know I picked up a 65 Commando about a month ago that has set for 30 plus years. Drums are stuck on, but managed to get the back two off finally. Finding nine inch drums on the car, and I don't think that is correct. I might add that the secondary braking material came off with the...

    273 advise needed

    First I know there have been several 273 rebuild discussions here and I've learned a lot already reading through toolmanmike's build and others. Most of what I've found are builds of a 273 two barrel, or have a lot of technical information that I don't really understand. I already have the...

    Filler tube replacement 65 Barracuda

    Here is what's left of the gas tank on my 65 Barracuda. Just needs a little JB weld. lol. The section of the filler tube that was in the tank was rusting away also and full of rust, so it's going to have to come out also. Any tips and tricks to get this out? I guess the vent tube just...

    67 Barracuda

    Hello all, Looking still at trying to buy a driver quality Barracuda. I came across this one, but this fender tag scares me to death. I'm trying to figure out how this fender tag got on the car. It appears to be from a Camaro or a Chevelle. Or possibly a Buick. Rest of the car looks legit...

    Original 63 gear set?

    Hello all. I have my diff cover off my 63 GT. To the untrained eye I don't see any issues. If I'm reading numbers correctly I believe this is the original gear set from 1963, and is 2.93. Do you guys see any concerns that I should look at before sealing it back up? Thanks!

    63 Dart conversion question

    Converting the front drums to discs this week. 63 Dart GT. Original single jar MC, so no distribution valve or proportioning valve in the car. Staying with manual brakes, I have my dual MC installed and ready to do lines. I bought this kit from Inline tube that came with a distribution...

    Wheel alignment

    So I'm doing a front disc conversion on my 63 GT. Keeping control arms stock but changing the upper and lower bushings and strut rod bushings. I'll definitely need an alignment. I've read some other posts. Looks like -.5 camber and +2.5 caster with minimal toe is about right. Any input on...

    New starter

    Has anyone put a new starter on an early Dart without any drama? The one I bought was for an early 90's Dakota. Both wires coming off the starter relay are too short to reach the new terminals, and the black wires connector won't even fit over the new starters stud if it was long enough. Most...

    Windshield washer jar setup

    I'm doubting this, but would a windshield washer system been optional in 63? I can find no evidence in my 63 Dart GT that one ever existed. I assume if it did the system would have been one of those bags with a floor pump inside. Any ideas on adding one? Would love to see what the factory...

    Correct seat belt style 1963

    Hello. My 63 Dart GT didn't come with seat belts, and has made it to 2021 still without them. I want to add some simple lap belts to the car. It looks like in 64 the correct style would have been a lift latch according to one site that only sells belts for 1964 and newer. Another site that...

    Radiator in 63 Dart GT

    Hey guys, Can anyone give me any info on this radiator number? 2082174 I also have a seven blade fan, also not correct for the car. According to parts book original radiator would have been 2276826 with a four blade fan. Since this isn't the original radiator there's no reason to spend money...

    73 Charcoal canister to 1406 carb

    So I've read some old posts on this and still a bit confused as to the best way to do this. 1. The fuel tank line will stay connected to the 1/4 inch metal line coming up from gas tank. 2. The purge line can run to the drivers side manifold vacuum or i guess to any manifold vacuum...
