For a restoration project, 1968 Barracuda. Need one pair(one set for one person) of back seat seat belt. Driver quality, any color, but both need to contain factory sewn-in part number as pictured. Thanks.
Trying to confirm info as my memory is not as good as it once was. Finally installing my gills and spears rocker mldgs. If car was equipped also with wheel opening mldgs, doesn't the rear wheel opening mldg have have to be cut off/shortened about 5in. to make room for the gills? The area below...
Yes those plastic shields that stop water from ruining your door panels. Cannot locate, does anyone make them anymore? Clear plastic, pre-cut. Me= 68 cuda FB. Thanks for the help.
Tariff wars have struck! My argent paint of choice has been Eastwoods Silver Argent Rally Wheel Paint. It is made in Canada and no longer available. I need 4 cans to finish a project. If you have 1-4 full cans I will buy them from you. Will pay all expenses. Picture included, stock #10001-z. Thanks.
Am trying to make contact with a member here that restores Barracuda trim. He did a good job on my '68 trunk pieces but lost contact. Who is this mystery member? Thanks for the help.
Cannot find Dan Pausch for the show boards he makes. I have a website on Hotmail/Outlook and an autoDNA thing, but neither one seems to work. Does anyone have any contact info for him? Thanks, Murray.
I feel dumb. For all the work and time spent on my car, I really don't understand my fender tag. HELP! Car is a 1968 Barracuda, original 383, 4-sp. Here is the fender tag, please teach me how to decipher it. Thanks guys.
I was recently given this part that looks like a shield of some kind and was told that it was a oil pressure sender heat shield for a Hemi. Can you confirm or deny? If true it may be of some value. You will not hurt my feelings. Thanks for the help.
I must be dumb. I have accepted that when I buy or sell a car part and send it USPS that I will have to sell my first born to pay for it where-as big companies get a greatly reduced rate. This week I went to the local Post Office to mail five medium manilla envelopes. All five were the same size...
I am in need of six clips that hold the headliner bows in place. It is for my '68 cuda FB but I think they are the same for all 'A' bodies in these years. Thanks.
I thought I knew about everything on these cars but not so. Apparently I have never adjusted the hinge tension on the rear deck on a '67-'69 cuda fastback. These don't use torsion bars but rather coil springs like the hood. I see in the shop manual the one bolt to loosen and then adjust, but it...
On my '68 cuda, FB, 383, 4-sp car, I have seen 553 from Govier and 331 from another source. Where is the best place to go for the latest production number for these cars? Thanks for the help.
My first time with big power. '68 Dart, 606hp sbm, Tremec, Gerst suspension. Want to run autocross, but streetable. Do you think an 8 3/4" is a good choice? Will it handle 600+ hp? Maybe a "built" 8 3/4"? What do you think? Thanks.
I can rebuild trannys and engines but I can't remember how to attach my bucket seats ('68 cuda) to their track. I have restored the tracks and the front two mountings are 5/16" studs w/ nuts. The rear two have a square hole- what goes in there to attach the rear of the bucket seat? I must have...
Can't believe that I lost it. Car= '68 cuda P/S. I am need of the brass fitting on top of the control valve on the top of the box. It is a 90* fitting that adapts from pipe thread to flare fitting using a brass locking nut and "o" ring. I feel dumb but thanks.
Just when I thought I knew everything, getting ready to install my front and back glass, and noticed that all the clips are not the same. This is news to me. Are the top row of clips (front and back) different/smaller than the rest? Why? Educate me. Thanks for the help guys. FB.
Found a manifold for an "A" body 383, left side, but the casting number was ......002. My '68 cuda is ......729. Is .....002 a left side for a '67? Or something else?
OK- I'm an old fart that needs to be educated about modern tires. Went to a tire shop yesterday to get a flat repair. They wouldn't repair it because said that the tire was too old! They are 6 years old. I am hearing this more often- that our tires are old if we see some aging (cracking) and...
I own a 1968 cuda. In some literature a red "heart" with a devils tail is shown. I want to research this more. Was this used '67-'69? What is it called? Is it part of the "Rapid Transit Authority"? Can you point me in the right direction? What do you remember? Thanks for the help.
1968 cuda, 4-sp w/console . Am assembling interior after long storage. I have shifter in place and have the lower rubber boot in place ( not the boot in the console itself). Isn't there supposed to be a chrome, oval retaining ring to secure this lower boot? Sorry, memory is not as good as it...
I don't usually get into models (but they are cool), but would like to buy a 1:18 model of "Mr. 5 and 50" 1968 cuda, driven by Jack Werst. Would anyone here have one for sale? Thanks, Murray.
