    Aftermarket shoulder belts for 68 barracuda convertible

    Anyone out there have a good solution to get shoulder harnesses in a 68 barracuda convertible? Had a close call a while back when someone pulled out in front of me. It’s got me jumpy.

    1968 318 alternator suggestion

    Thanks guys, I think I got what I need now that I had the "roundback" search term. I'm pretty sure I can just ground the second terminal, correct?

    1968 318 alternator suggestion

    I purchased an alternator that the local auto parts store's website assured me would fit my car. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to....but it almost fits.

    68 barracuda 318 oil pressure reading

    I just got my gauges working. Oil pressure seems to be reading a bit low. (See attached) I figure it should be in the middle somewhere. Before I go troubleshooting further, can anyone tell me what tick mark their oil pressure gauge reads normally?

    I see we have similar cars. Fender tag on mine says original interior was blue. Someone at some point made it black. Was wondering what color your interior is. Big question: those side panels I posted about, if your interior is blue, are those panels also blue. Hard enough to find those...

    Engine lags and stalls when initially pressing gas-Solution Found?!

    I recently replaced the carb with a more correct carter 2 barrel (the one that was on there was not original, the one I bought looks right but didn't come with a tag) and am having some issues where the engine will lose power if I quickly press the gas. The faster I press the gas, the more...
