I just completed repairs after a Deer vs. Barracuda accident that occured on July16th. I purchased the grills from 66Cuda so I saw and heard his beautiful car when I went to pick up the grills. It is a very impressive car.

Mark, Cosgig/Geof has some grill parts for me that I will pickup next Wed. He says they are also pitted so I am continuing to try to find alternatives. Geof, is also going to try to locate better grill parts for me at the MOPAR Nats this weekend because I cannot go this year due to conflicting...

Thanks for the info. The adjuster and I discussed that issue today because i believe that it is very likely that any grill pieces I find will have to be refinished/chromed. Steve

Geof, That will be great since I can't go to the Nats this year. I'm hoping to have the car repaired well before Monster Mopar Weekend in Indy Sept. 24-26. Check your email and let me know when it would be convenient for me to come up to buy the hood from you. I have your phone number and I...

My 1966 Barracuda was recently damaged in a deer vs. Barracuda collision. ( See threads on Early A Body Discussions forum) Consequently, I need the 2 left side grill parts. Namely, the chrome egg crate grill and the chrome surround, with or with out the headlight bezel. (See attached photo)...

MOPAR Fans: I am very pleased to report that today I was notified by a Hagerty Insurance adjuster that they were approving the settlement of my claim on the basis of the $1,087.35 higher estimate prepared by my body shop instead of the $2,317.81 preliminary estimate that was prepared by their...

Leanna, Please see my responses to the 2 previous posts. I think it will work out okay. I'm just impatient to locate good used parts. Thanks, for your interest. Steve

So far the the process with Hagerty has not been at all contentious. I'm probably being a little impatient. I'm fairly confident that the disparity in estimates will be amicably resolved. Steve

Thanks, for the info re Mopar City, I'm in Oakwood, IL so they are reasonably close. So far they process with Hagerty has not been at all contentious. I'm fairly confident that the disparity in the estimates will be resolved amicably but i'm probably just being a little impatient. Steve

This post is intended to a follow up to the cautionary tale I posted last week regarding a deer strike that occurred on July 16th. I conversed with my Hagerty adjuster last Tuesday and he told me that he had received a copy of the preliminary damage estimate from their appraisal firm and it...

We lost a 13.5 year old female Labrador named Jody almost two years ago i know the loss you are feeling today and tomorrow. Our dog experienced the onset of a msyndrome the vet called "ODV" or old dog vestibular syndrome. Her eye shook from side to side and she was so dizzy she could not...

Thanks, so far I have been very lucky with vehicle vs. deer accidents. this was my 3rd one. The 2nd was the worst. It involved a 2003 Dodge Caravan going very slowly that sustained $4,800 in damages acquired in my attempt to avoid 3 deer standing in a very rural road. They were around a...

I believe they will pay for packaging a, shipping and cost of purchase as well as any necessary refurbishment post acquisition. If you have any of these parts please send me a PM and I'll respond with an email address so that you can more easily send me an email with photos and quoted prices of...

I will try again to post the photos. Thanks, Steve

A Cautionary Tale for Fellow Mopar Fans: At 8:45 PM on July 16th my wife and I were on our way home from the "Dancing in the Streets" car show and cruise in Lafayette, IN when we hada very unfortunate encounter with an apparently suicidal deer approximately 12 miles from home. I really wanted...

Jack, I have acquired and restored a sport/rallye steering wheel for my 66 Barracuda. I have also purchase a metal Valiant logo horn button that I am satisfied with because I have an early 66 Barracuda, However, I am still deperately seeking a horn switch for a 64-66 A body metal horn button...

Aveeno, colloidal oatmeal bath. Follow the directions and it will take care of the burning sensation and rehydrate the burned dermal layer.

Thanks, for the info. Steve

I posted and ad on 5/6/2011 seeking to purchase these parts. I only had one response. I did purchase internal horn parts from Barracudakid but they turned out to be from a later model A body streering wheel with a padded (non-metallic) horn button with a tapered adapter that was too big for my...

I posted a classified ad on FABO about 2 weeks ago indicating that I wanted to buy these parts for a 1966 A body. I actually had only one response. I did purchase parts but they turned out to be from a later model steering wheel with a padded (non-metallic) horn button with a tapered adapter...

I recently acquired an A body sport steering wheel that was on Ebay Motors for $100. It only had 3 cracks that we repaired with DuroBond and then sanded it down and painted it with 3 coats of VHT BlacK crinkle paint for texture. ( see attached photo) I am very pleased how it looks and feels...

Mop, That is just exactly what I need. Your price is acceptable. Will a USPS money order be okay with you for payment? If so, please respond with shipping costs to Oakwood, IL 61858 and I will immediately send you a postal money order to you for $25.00 plus the shipping costs. Thanks, Steve...

I managed to find and purchase a Mopar A body Sport steering wheel that is in fair shape off eBay . Unfortunately, without a center horn button. Consequently, I need to find a horn button that is appropriate for a 1966 Barracuda. If you have one available or if you know of a reproduction...

Thanks for your help. Steve

Hey A body fans, Has anybody installed a set of the US Cartool frame connectors for 63-66 Mopar A bodies. I understand that the part # USCT1M1106 are a fairly new product and I am considering them for my 1966 Barracuda. Thanks,Steve

Geof, Thanks, for your comments, sorry for the tupo on Cosgis. It has been a very long time since I have done any type of mechanical work because I spent many long hours over 39 years working in public health administration but now its time to get my hands greasy again. Steve Laker

Hello, Fellow Mopar Fans: I actually joined FABO in January but until now I have limited by posts to classified ads and responses to acquire some missing parts to complete my 1966 Barracuda. I had a 1966 Barracuda Formula S until late 1968 when I had to trade it to go away to college and I...

I still need a steering wheel for a 1966 Barracuda project. I would prefer a three spoke, wood rimmed type wheel but a black wheel would be my 2nd choice. Thanks, 66moparrerun
