FABO members I must apoligize for the late posting but the car has been SOLD. Another FABO member purchased it. The purchaser is a newbie to MOPAR rides but very experienced in Pontiac restoration work. Had a beautiful GTO setting in his garage the day I delivered the Barracuda. I am sure you...

Guys: Since everyone here has been a great source of information and from my experiences very helpful and friendly I thought this would be the first place I would post my 1969 Barracuda Fastback for sale. Details of the car are as follows and to the best of my knowledge. As all of you know these...

Fastback 340 thanks for the pic. While my GF, whom I really purchased this Cuda for had one identical to yours back in high school BUT this one doesn't seem to be "talking" to her. So being as I have it now and am not that crazy bout the L-1 or Q-5 color I have decided on a Red exterior and a...

340John: You recommended my second choice of colors, Red. If I do the car in Red I will either do the interior and 340 side stripe in White or Black. I have already picked up a set of Coker Redline radial tires for the Cuda (Jesus talk about take your breath away in the way of cost/tire) and am...

Existing interior on 13-March-09. Going to head over to Year One on Monday to pick up some of the new interior. This weekend will be spent pulling out the old stuff. Have never used that POR-15 stuff so I am going to have to do a little research on it. Comments on it are welcome if many of you...

One and all who are interested. I am in the throws of ordering and installing a new interior in my 69 Barracuda Fastback. While this Cuda will not be "factory perfect" it still is a fairly rare car by production standards. The car originally had a 3 speed on the column but not has a 4 on the...

Eagle Guy: Times are shitty all over for lot of people and I am sure some of you good folks here on FABBO are also going through your own personal hell, of sorts. Eagle keep your chin up, weigh your options, look at your personal skills and talents, get on the computer and peruse the various...

69 and 70 GTX's exterior views. Both B-5 exterior paint. 1970 has Blue interior 69 has Black interior.

Mullinax: You have inspired me ! I've been a "B & E" body guy for almost 40 years and just acquired my first "A" body (69 Barracuda Fastback). First thing I looked at while conceptualizing the look of the new interior was a pistol grip sticking out of the console. Thought it would be nice...

Young man I think Floyd pass along some sound advice to you. Get yourself a good sound dependable daily driver to get you to work and around town. Put your Duster under wraps for the time being and invest your time and money into it over a period of time. You can save some cash by getting your...

Spaz: I was up in your area today checking on an Olds engine they are suppose to be dragging out of their immensely cluttered storage area for me and the Manager asked if I collected old cars. He took me over to a shed and showed me a 71 B body and a 70's model Cougar buried under a bunch of...

Got the new stripes on the Challenger and thought I would share a happy snap of the new look. Only thing left to do is put the R/T on the Black hood stripe.

Mullinax: Got you some pictures of the Hurst Lightning rod shifters this afternoon

Cudaspaz: Alpharetta, yep your right up the road from me. I have a buddy in the Alpharetta area I talk and swap Oldsmobile 442 stuff with (Got a 70 W-30 hardtop and 70 W-30 convertible hidden among the MOPARS). I gotta say those lightning rod shifters look pretty strange sticking out of a Dodge...

373/400 is correct for 318's up thru 88. I used 2 sources to double check 1.) How to Hot Rod small block Mopars (same source Stroked 340 used) and 2.) Allpar.com which I have included a link for going to the LA engine section. http://www.allpar.com/mopar/318.html
