Just trying to get an idea of what this beauty is worth to see if it can help me get out of my financial situation. 68 fastback. Petty blue, 383 w/Holley carb, 8-3/4 rear, roll cage, tubbed rears with street legal slicks, 2 seater, all trim in tact, currently not running due to either timing or...

Definitely my next project then. Add it to the to do list.

What did you do for a fix?

Agree to disagree. So back to the subject at hand. It starts and tries to run but exhaust heats up real quick. I'm going to follow most advice and do oil change, plugs, wires, clean the carb real good and go from there.. she's got her voice back, just doesn't want to scream at the world yet...

Not sure if I did this right but here's the beaut I'm trying to bring back to life.

I don't mind buying a new carb but if I can get away with a good cleaning and not a total rebuild or new purchase obviously id go that route.

If I don't have an air compressor would carb cleaner and canned air suffice? Pull it, spray it, scrub it etc.

So should I pull the carb and give it s good cleaning? Starting it and its trying. Definitely getting some burn off at the carb.

I did get the new battery and fresh gas in and it is a lot happier now. Starts and tried but won't sit and run/idle quite yet.

Not sure? I'm pretty new to the engines of these cars. My orange cuda I bought built and sold in under 3 years. Never really had time to get to know them. No electronic ignition.. pretty much stock 383 with some exceptions. Got it to turn over, fire and run for about 30 seconds. Hopefully its...

Oh yeah! And fresh gas! If the new battery and fresh gas don't work then I think it's spark plugs and the like that'll be next.

Fuel lines are definitely clean. Pulling the throttle cable I get solid squirts of gas into the carb. I'm going to try a new battery. It will try it's hardest to start and run but after so many tries the battery just gives out.. going to do new battery and ground wire, fuel air seem ok. It's...

Weak battery maybe? It's been sitting in my durango for a couple months un-used.

Should I do plugs and wires if they haven't been done in 6-8 years? It cranks but doesn't want to fire over.

Crawled under the dash best I could and found a disconnected battery (+) cable to the back of the ignition switch. She's turning over and wanting to start now at least. Cranking and firing just won't start yet. The sitting for years probably doesn't help that.

So I recently was able to re-aquire a 68 Barracuda fastback I helped build some 10 years ago from a friend. Only problem is it has been sitting in his driveway going to waste for the past 6 or so years. Towed it home, threw in a new battery, rekeyed it new ignition switch and lock cylinder and...

is it drive-able to the northwest? meaning can it make the long haul?

Sold :( :sad1: :( :sad1: :( :sad1: :( :sad1:

My barracuda is listed there too, this guy is really close to where I live and plans on coming by this weekend Ruth his barracuda to check out mine.. see with my own two eyes if its worth 8500?

Price dropped to 15,500
