SS Barracuda front Bumper
SSing…..you and I have been down this road many times and you don’t believe what anybody else says but your own words. These cars are not a production line car….they don’t have the repeatability like a production line car. Folding seats, altered wheel wells, seat brackets, you think think somebody on here has the answers but they refuse to share them…the simple truth is nobody has all answers. I have all of Bob Tarozzi‘s personal notes and I don’t even have all the answers. You need to relax!!
Yes, I´ll relax. Just watch me.
And yes, one more thing before I leave. Did you post the picture you have, of Dick Landy´s, showing seat back rest was folded?
If not, do it in the thread where I claim, seats were A-100 pick-up seats you could fold, not A-100 fixed Van seats...
And of cause there may have been one with the Van seat... may have...
And I don´t believe what you say... I depends what it is. You cant make generalizations like that. I have learnt alot from You and from this forum.
But most of all I believe in the pictures from ´68-´69 that I have.
Finally about the inconsistency. In my opiniom exaggrated.
Take engine compartment. How many did not have Hollies, Cross ram, wrinkel valve covers. The big oil cap. Blue coil. Alternator with big pullys. 7 blade alu fan and the 070 fan clutch. Alu water pump BB radiator. Two speed whiper. Heater delete block off plate. Oil deep Stick. Master Cylinder Assembley and offset plate.
So how many of the 150 cars had varations here?
We know about a blue water bump yes. Three speed wiper motor? a few maybe?
Spark plug separators? maybe a few differences.
I seen at least two different K-Members, Yes True!!
Could be a few had Fender Tag not painted!!!
Not all had a antifreeze Sticker??? I dont know
Inside:
Radia delete plate?? Did someone come without it?
Different Shifter?? Auto or 4-speed? Don´t think so...
Seats? Yes could be Bostrom had to deliver a few Van seats.
Crome horn ring? Never seen one. Possibly.
Back seat? Dont think so...
Sun visire? Was probbabley in "car" when i came to Hurst...
Floor mats and mats in back?
Outside:
No Mirror delete?
No Wipers?
No Bumpers? Or not light weigt up front??
Even more goofy wheels.
Yes one had smal BP up front.
A few had side markers up front. May have been the first fenders were made that way? That is what I think.
Doors and side glass?? Yes side glass was no good.
Did one not have window regulation straps?? No never heard anything like that.
Trunk:
No Battery? Plate or plastic tray?
Jack stand instruction? Not all maybe.
Alu sheet metal piece for under scoop missing?
A bar or two holding scoop missing??
Under:
Brake lines? Could they have been run any different? Or fuel line???
Rear axle other tan Dana 60 and 8 3/4?
Super Stock springs and offset brackets?
Imperial shocks???
Torque boxes in back? think so. Think this is one of the reasons car was chosen. Or at least one of...
Front suspension?? Guess all the parts had to be there. 6 cyl. Tourqe shafts was one of the parts that had been color markt, so yes...
Yes engine was not always good. And Headers maybe not bolted up on a few.
Not going to mension wheel wells. Of cause variations.
150 cars. We are talking 150 cars
Make you pic!!
Yes a thing here and a part there.
A missing part here and one a little different there.
But again, we are talking 150 cars.
So all together. 10-15-20-30 had a thing or two that differed??
Take you pic every one.
Tell us what you know about this. Don´t just say they more or less all were different...
The thing that bacically not two cars were alike??? I don´t buy that.
I think its a way to making these cars even more special than they were.
But don´t get me wrong. Of cause they are very very very special...
Now I´m going to relax from this Forum.
Maybe post a pic of my car when its ready.
Still pissed though, no one could tell, they came with a´67 rear axle.
Sitting with a ´68 unit now but it will have to do for the moment.
Less than 3/8 on each side if I remember...
