    Hi Jefroa, Saw your friend request and added you (after I figured out how). The only info on your CP says you’re near Jacksonville at zip code 28540. Since that’s close to Camp Lejeune, I am assuming you’re a fellow Marine. I haven’t posted to this board in a long time - since I purchased a...

    Mopar Alley Rally?

    It doesn’t look like the Mopar Alley web site has been updated since the Christmas party. The Rally is held in June at Ohlone College, Fremont CA. I can talk to the guys about updating web site at next months meeting.

    Coil Over Identification

    It’s likely we had the same idea at the same time – I originally wanted two resonators but as I’m sure you know, there is barely enough room for exhaust pipe. :-D

    Coil Over Identification

    Thanks Cuda 64 I think I found the Coil Over manufacture and a spanner wrench that should work. Coil overs = TCI All American Coil-Over Spanner Wrench = AFCO # 20110 Adjustable design fits any brand coil-over nut. Spanner features rubber grip for easy use. Makes Adjusting coil-overs...

    Coil Over Identification

    Coil over Identification I am taking a shot in the dark here but my Barracuda shares the garage with my Model A Hot Rod project. I have been trying to identify the manufacturer of the coil over shock, so I can purchase a spanner wrench. I know many of you guys have work in the automotive...

    Hood Pins

    If you do use the hood bumper position for your hood pins your hood will likely vibrate. I solved this by installing the bumpers back on the pins at the right height. Nice flag Cudaspaz

    horn button help please

    It should honk until you attach the spring over the Nut & bolt (tape on the spring will help hold the spring in place) then place the cap over the spring and push down over the collar with the wire tab (cap has 3 or 4 indentations and collar with tab has matching holes) then gently insert cap...

    Early A boidy door/ignition lock sets

    Are you certain the locks are actually defective? I had to wiggle the key in both the ignition and doors on my 65 Barracuda. I took my old key to a good locksmith and he was able to cut a new key set that now works flawlessly and very little cost. You can get MOPAR key blanks from ebay if...

    windshield wiper Lubricant

    I am servicing my windshield wipers in my ’65 Barracuda and my Factory Service Manual calls for Lead-Plate Lubricant MoPar Part #2275437; which I believe is no longer available. The FSM also states not to use Lubriplate which would have been my fall-back choice. What Lubricant did you find that...

    Beaten to death

    The driver side orientation of the flange is crucial because of it proximity to the Z-bar (remember it needs to come out easy too). Most of the time spent installing exhaust was spent getting the driver side tail pipe to pass through the small opening on the drivers side. That being said my 273...

    Nine inch clutch sources ?

    That’s exactly what I did and you are correct, early A Low first gear + 10.95 inch clutch = awesome launch. The only drawback is the aluminum bell and limited Driver side exhaust routing.
