In the 65 Barracuda there's those corner pieces that are half moon shaped and made of plastic. And when trying to remove them after all the years they always seem to crack. The pieces are screwed into place but after fifty-five years they might as well have been glued. Thank you, Joe
 
Good luck my man. Been looking for 15 years now. You got dibs, I'm next in line! Member in Hawaii parts out cars and may have a set for you.

Well that's not good to hear, 15yrs. The ones I have tried gluing and sanding, painting (black gloss) but missing corner on one. You been looking for that long I would rather you go first if found. Thanks Joe
 
Trouble is I'm so far unwilling to pay $$$ for what I find. You may have a slightly richer budget. Ill let you determine what they're worth. I'm not actively looking now. Good luck. Ill end up making my own.
 
I looked but came up empty handed. Found all of the other hard to find plastic pieces...trunk lock cover, rear seat latch covers and “A” pillar trim.
 
Commando66, That would be much appreciated. I am about half way thru restoration on my 65 barracuda S and the members have been a great help. Thank you, Joe.

Commando66, Thank you for going out of your way to help. I have the other pieces you mention and bought the A pillar trim from Classic Industries before I knew about this site. The rear seat latch covers you mention, what are they and where do they go, I don't think I have them. Thank you, Joe

Those covers go over the back seat latch strikers that are mounted on the wheel house.

cudamark, I figured that most likely would be where they would go. My car did not have them so I learn something new. Thanks Joe.

Commando66, Another member (cudamark) let me know about the lathch covers. I don't have them and never knew about them. I also looked at pictures on line and they look good in the car. I would like to purchase them and maybe any other pieces I might need. Thank you Joe.
 
I was looking for something in the basement today and found a couple of those curved corner pieces, at least that’s what they appear to be. IIRC they cane with a 65 Barracuda I eventually parted out. I’ll get some pics later. I might have another set in my storage that I would have removed when I parted the Barracuda out. I’ll check on that in a day or two.

65 Dartman, Thank you for getting back to me and yes I am interested in purchasing the parts. The pair I have are broken so I tried gluing and painting but not up to my liking. Thanks Joe.
 
Here are the pair I found in the basement. It appears they were originally gold in color and someone painted them black. The top one is in decent shape; however, as you can see on the bottom one, there is a piece missing at the top left corner. I still need to check in my storage building for the other set that I think I have.

The pair your showing are better than the pair I have but maybe between all off them I could come up with something that will be to my liken. I still would like to see if you have the others also. Let me know what you want for all of them. Any other 65 cuda parts, let me know. Thanks Joe.

I checked my storage today and didn’t find them or probably sold them. Before I price those corners, what else might you be looking for? Sheet metal? Interior? Just little odds ‘n’ ends?

65 Dartman, I have all the chrome pieces for the car. I am looking for the plastic covers that go over the back seat latch that go over
the chrome latch that locks the bar in place. Thank you Joe.
 
Ah OK. I know what they are as I have a set in my wagon along with the brackets welded in place - using a Barracuda rear fold down seat in the rear. I will see if I have any more.
