Mine didn't have any check valve either. And there was a pretty significant restriction at the top of the vent tube rubber connector up high on the filler tube. So, I opened that up a bit, as I assume that would still pass gas just fine - just like I do! :) That short rubber hose connector up...

Would be an easy fix. When the tank is near empty, and with the filler cap/door open a while, you just have to "tap" a small fitting into the top of the filler tube to accommodate a short rubber hose connector and a small fuel-type line that you run to where you want the gas to vent to.

Yup! Thx. Before I saw your post, I cleaned up the vent tube, replaced the rubber hose connector to the fill tube, and rerouted it as in your figure 2. On my 67, there is a large rectangular gasket at where the filler tube goes through the trunk floor. Towards the center line in that gasket...

Yup! That's standard plumbing code here too - up with the tank.

Was a new tank. But you are correct in that I always try to "completely" fill my tanks when I gas up. This is the first time I've EVER had this issue with any of my cars. The applicable service manuel is not Barracuda specific. It's an A-Body manual. That has consequences, in that start at...

Will the little problems PLEEEEEASE stop mounting up????? :rolleyes: I was about to comment that it hadn't gotten all that hot yet in Oklahoma....BUT...... TODAY IT HIT 100 degrees F! I went out into the garage after dinner, greeted by the strong smell of gasoline! First thought was my new...

Looking for this Cooper GT Radial with raised white letters to fit better in the front of my 67 Barracuda. I found one on eBay; and need one more. Please post, even if you see one at a flea market or Swap Meet!

Great idea. I hadn't even thought of that!

Thanks anway. I got lucky and found a good video, that even explains what to if the aftermarket outside handle levers are longer than OEM, or off angle.

Are you sure you linked the correct story? Most all that was about the doors and hinges. I did find a good video on YouTube though. I'll probably tackle the non-driver door handle first.

...that I had in mind. Turned our pretty clean. So, when the last 2 wheels came in today I took them down immediately to hav the tire mounted. **The 3.75 inch backspacing on the AR62 wheels has turned out perfect; as the rear tires still clear the springs by almost 2 inches. I did also...

Outside handles.

Just the outside handles

Just the outside handles

I have ordered replacement door handles for my 67 Barracuda.; mine fairly pitted. I have done a lot of DIY work on it. But, I just want to get a reading on how much trouble I can get into replacing the door handles myself.

Very nice look!

Thanks for the post. But, I have already thought thru all that. I've got a Notchback, and am changing things to be more road friendly; including tires not rubbing the fenders. Tires already here from Tire Rack. Wheels on the way from Jegs. Gonna give Gabriel Hijackers a try for custom height...

OK! I lost the post! WHO MENTIONED GABRIEL "HI-JACKERS"????

Like it!

Yup! That's why I said my head was swimming with numbers and calculations right now. And now the more I calculate and look, the more I think I need to go back to 14s.

I've looked at several sites with charts describing wheel diameter versus what tire width will work. A 7 inch wheel is supposedly OK for a 9 inch tire (profile). I would think that this would also give you a little sidewall protection from curb rashing your wheels. The tires I am looking at are...

Same here! I can't view the photo.

NOW! HERE IS ANOTHER CONCERN ABOUT THE WHEEL WELLS!!! I'm currently on 15 inch tires with a 60 aspect ration. All the tires I am seeing that I like are all 70 aspect ratio. My head is swimming with drawings and numbers.....will the 15 inch /70 tires be taller???? (Over an inch taller by my...

With my goal to get the tires inside the wheel wells, my intention is to go with a 15x7 wheel. That way all 4 wheels are the same, and can accomodate up to 9 in width tires. My #1 choice on wheel is the AM Racing AR23 Series (cobo of good looks and good price). #2 would be the US Mags U101 Indy...

That's why I am asking. On mine, I see no need to..1) have a fat *** ties sticking outside the body (I'm not dragging); and 2) The *** up in the air is too much. I figure that I will be putting gas shock on the rear to adjust the height.

"Hot" motor = lots of horsepower I guess??

So, as I am narrowing down new wheels and tires for my 67 Barracuda, the thought occurs to me.... Although I am used to seeing all 4 tires the same width on passenger cars, that does not seem to be what I see on Classic cars. In order to get my wheels and tires back into the wheel wells, I...

Thanks

Sure! Measure your backspacing. That would be helpful. Thx
