I have a 68 Barracuda with an F440 and A-833 non-O/D trans. I don't have all the numbers for you of the bellhousing and whatnot... The previous owner fabbed up a C-shaped bracket that mounts on the starter holes and bolts with a ballstud welded to the outer edge. It works with the Z-bar and...
Well its almost April and the snow is dissapearing so time to haul more cars home lol Just wanted to bump this thread and see what i can find...
FYI: the 64 Buick 4dr i got from Tom will not be derbied, just used for parts. 8)
I bought a car that was hiding in a chicken coop back in '03 for $300.. even done to 100 point original it is not worth half of what i will have in it when i am done but i don't care. I saved up and finally got the body and first paint on a couple years ago and now its sitting while i save and...
Mark!? Long time no see... or speak lol Yes it is me with the odd looking smoked fish. My car runs out of insurance on Sunday so i might go paint the town black to finish off the year soon :toothy10:
Hey Tom, sorry i have been outta touch but i have been super busy working on my new backyard, catching up from being gone for a month and working steady cleaning up a local yard full of cars for 40+ yrs. (notta mopar amongst them :( ). I should be able to come up and have a look in the next...
Up this side of the big border theres been salt on the road in the winter for a long time and as a result of that and being used to back a boat into the pacific ocean... my car gets rustier and rustier. Body parts have been replaced as a result over time but never the frame rails but their time...
I talk to the Barret boys fairly often, the last time i was there i saw a black 1970 New Yorker that was pretty dam nice for a survivor. Being a car guy, I would never demo something like that. I'll have to call them up again when i get home.
I've actually spoke with that guy a couple times but we've never been able to align our schedules plus his prices have been on the high side of what im used to. Thanks for the information anyhow!
Hey Tom,
I took a job in Fernie for a few weeks (they told me one week lol) so i'll be over to see your cars after that. I'll contact you when i know my last day is getting close. :)
Posting for a good friend. Car must be in western Canada or between Spokane, Washington and Billings, Montana (ish). Will consider anything from a fairly complete project to a decent driver. He wants to go pretty crazy with a big block / Dana 60 combo in the thing so engine/tranny/diff doesnt...
Thanks very much! Usually the Barrett boys get a lot of the cars in that area for that purpose but once in a while one comes my way. I got a similar sounding call from a guy a few months ago saying he was getting out and had two or three left but i couldnt get over there soon enough. Maybe its...
Too bad for the distance, my friend has a 65 Sport Fury convertible that could be had fairly cheap. Its one of those ones that needs a full resto but they dont make quality sheetmetal for them so its a borderline parts car. Has all the chrome, some in multiples... clear BC papers and a running...
