    [FOR SALE] 1968 Barracuda notchback front bench seat

    I have decided to convert to modern bucket seats for safety and comfort reasons. I am asking $500 for this front bench seat, plus applicable shipping. Pickup in the Greensboro, NC area is preferred if you are close enough. The seat is both large and heavy, making packing and shipping rather...

    AAW harness with CD box and the plugs do not fire...HELP!!

    When the rebuilt engine was put into my '68 Barracuda, the original harness was still in place and it was adapted by the mechanic to work with the MSD 6425 CD ignition box. I carefully removed the front and under dash harnesses as part of a complete replacement of the car's wiring. The kit I...

    Capacitor Discharge (CD) Ignition?

    I used a Summit Racing 850027 distributor with a MSD 6AL (#6425) in the 318 block used to build my 392 stroker. The MSD distributors are much more expensive so I am happy with my decision. FYI, I originally had acquired a MSD Stacker 7000 box long before getting the distributor but that was a...

    looking for shoulder belt attachment location

    I chose to fabricate anchors as per the photo below. The dimensions of the plate allow for insertion into the large hole and then 90 degree rotation. Fabrication steps: 1) The hole drilled through the plate must be 1/2" to accommodate the non-threaded part of a seat belt anchor bolt. 2) The...

    looking for shoulder belt attachment location

    I looked through this post and those linked to it. The photos are great but I am still at a loss as to where to install the shoulder belt top mounts in my 1968 Barracuda notchback. The photo below does not match any of what I have seen here. The front and rear window interface is clearly...

    Procar seat brackets awareness

    Well, the two brackets finally arrived and they fit! They did match correctly with the dimpled marks in the floor, just as per abodyjoe's thread. The image I had originally posted for the 81344 was not correct but the one for the 81345 was correct. In fact, each is a mirror of the other in...

    Procar seat brackets awareness

    Thanks for adding this link. It will help everyone following this post. I am still waiting for the new seat brackets as they were back-ordered at Procar. I will post images once I have the brackets.

    Procar seat brackets awareness

    I will be getting a set of the non-upholstered Pro90 1300 series and getting them custom covered. I found a source of very nice vinyl that matches the original colour of the back seat.

    Procar seat brackets awareness

    I need one of each. The 81344 is for the driver's side. The 81345 is for the passenger side. If you look at the text I had put in the original pictures, I note which one is used.

    Procar seat brackets awareness

    One of the parts is not going to be shipped from Procar for at least 3 weeks due to lack of inventory. However, here are images of the two brackets that should serve as optimal replacements. I will try to remember your request. If you have not seen them in a month, please ping me privately as...

    Procar seat brackets awareness

    I jumped on a chance to buy the Procar seat brackets for my 1968 Barracuda because JEGS had them for a good sale price. The 81340 and 81341 are listed as the suitable Procar part numbers for this model year ('65 - '69 inclusive). When they arrived, I checked the fitment and was surprised. The...

    Alternate package tray materials for '68 notch back Barracuda

    Since this is a public forum, I will share an image I got from the Detroit Muscle web site. The picture shows an insulated trunk divider for the '67 - '69 Barracudas. The site recommends installation with the insulating material facing toward the seat back, thus perhaps providing advice to...

    Alternate package tray materials for '68 notch back Barracuda

    Very impressive! It looks great. What gauge/thickness did you use for the shelf and seat back? In the very first image, it looks like there are two layers. Did you keep the original tray and just slide a metal layer on top of it?

    Alternate package tray materials for '68 notch back Barracuda

    Hi all, I have not yet removed the package tray from my '68 notch back Barracuda. It is faded and I am considering options for replacement. I am not sure I want to replace it with a stock type or make my own out of a hard board material. With other model Mopars using a metal package tray, has...

    Need parts shopping advise

    I just pulled a 7-14", Sure Grip axle (2.76:1) from my car. I have not had a chance to list it for sale. I have the driveshaft too. All brake hardware is brand new. Send me a PM if interested.

    drive shaft measurement

    This is definitely the best chart in terms of detail. One suggestion if you are making the length measurement yourself is to (gently) clamp the hook of the measuring tape to the face of the yoke. This makes it easier to read the tape at the transmission. Denny's has really jacked up their...

    [FOR SALE] 14 x 4.5", 5 on 4" rims

    This pair of rims has been sandblasted and repainted. They were part of the original set from my 1968 Barracuda. I went for bigger wheels on the back, making these redundant. $60 for the pair + shipping (PayPal please)

    Crack repair?

    Thanks DWB! Since I am actually just north of Oak Ridge, the shop in Madison is only 15 - 20 minutes away. I will take them up. I just want to make the set saleable if I can, rather than just throw them away. I will not post them on FABO...

    Crack repair?

    This may seem like a silly question to the veteran engine guys here but, it is plausible to think that a hairline crack in a head can be repaired? If so, any suggestions? I had acquired a set of 'J' heads from a 340 (casting #3418915) from my local mechanic back in Canada for a small amount of...

    [FOR SALE] Carter 2-bbl carburetor + extras

    This was the original 2-barrel carburetor from the 318 atop my 1968 Barracuda. The fuel lines and the choke coil are included. The shop manual identifies the carburetor as a BBD-4919S because it was on a Canadian car with an automatic transmission. $60 + shipping (PayPal please)

    [FOR SALE] Hooker reducers w/ Cu gaskets

    My mechanic could not make the (correctly specified) Hooker long tube headers fit. The new header option did not require the use of these 11030HKR (3" to 2-1/8") reducers. I will throw in the copper gaskets I bought separately. $30 + shipping (PayPal please)

    [FOR SALE] Holley blue (electric) fuel pump w/ regulator

    1968 Barracuda Notchback

    I have known the car for over 40 years and owned it for 30 (am only 51). It was my aunt's car and purchased new in my home town. I am only the second owner. Unfortunately, it is not a "numbers matching" vehicle as the original 318 was replaced with a rebuilt 318 with 0.040" oversized bore. I...
