My mad mopar family (me, my brother, my brother-in-law and my Dad who is 82!) are travelling 18000 miles to attend our first Carlisle. It's been our our collective bucket lists. Can't bring our cars but who knows what we might find in the car corral;-)

On my car, there is no "off" position for the fan switch as the AC needs the blower to come on when any of the settings (other than off) are engaged. If there is no off position you could simply put an on/off switch between the power source and the blower switch. Cheers Steve

Thanks guys, Here are a couple more shots, my daughter helping me dynamat the interior while the car was still in the paint booth, the car fresh out of the paint booth and my head fresh out of hospital showing the damage you can do to your head on the teeth that hold the weatherstripping to the...

I hope no one minds if I post this link to a Picassa page that has photos of the Chrysler Restorers Club show held recently. A lot of very nice local Mopars to look at. https://picasaweb.google.com/CRCAVic/Caribbean2013Cars# Cheers

Hi, Just thought I would share some pics of my 99.999% completed "resto". My car is an LA born and bred, black plated 65 Barracuda that came with a 2 barrel 273, auto trans, power steering and AC as well as the radio pack and external mirror. I found it on Craigslist and had it inspected...

Just did mine about a month ago. Here is what we did. We cleaned both channels on the gasket with a spirit based cleaner. Then we used a sealer that does not set hard to seat the rubber gasket onto the "fence", making sure the headliner was in place. Lowered the glass trailing edge first into...

Exactly. But I was rather hoping to find some Mopar Magic when I popped the back off the old switch. Or at least some electrical trickery... The good news is I saved over $250 by getting the newer switch and not the NOS parts off Ebay, so the drinks are on me if you ever make it Downunder...

Ok. Seeing as my old switch was beyond salvation, and armed with a multimeter and the above schematics, I have found that the two terminals that can be traced back to a source of power are simple on/off switches and separate from each other. On the 1965 switch, the power comes into circuit 1...

Thanks Del, that's just what I was looking for. :cheers:

Hi. Really need some help here. My 65 Barracuda has factory AC and I need to replace the control switch. I gave up trying to find a 67 and down switch and took a punt on buying a 68 and up switch. I knew the wiring terminals were different but I figured that same number of terminals, same...

I'm having Deja Vu here, Mitsubishi took over Chrysler in Australia with all sorts of promises. Once they had their slimy mitts on the property, no more new Valiants (as promised) and all the history of Chrysler was chucked out. I hope Fiat has a better sense of marketing than Mitsushitbox...

Hi Rick, True, utes don't come up too often in Oz either. They were the rugged work horse of many a farmer and when they finally expired they were usually left to rust in the back paddock. I've rescued 2 over the years but they are now getting thinner on the ground. Here are a couple on eBay...

Hi Rick. I think this is the part I need: RD-65CTHGP Taillight bucket housing to body gasket (pair) 1965 Barracuda but so I can be sure, is there anywhere I can view a picture of these items? Thanks in advance Steve Bond

Does anyone know if repro body gaskets/seals are available, specifically the black plastic piece that goes between the taillight bezel and the body on a 65 Barracuda. My fish is currently in the paintshop and I have everything to put it back together except these bits. The ones that were on it...

I just remembered I took this pic at Chryslers on the Murray this year. This was a 4 door sedan before someone got really clever. Talk about one of none:toothy5:

Greetings from Australia. I was searching for something else and came across this thread by accident but I can offer some insights. The Ute is based on a 4 door platform and most definitely does not use the longer doors from either a 2 door sedan or hardtop coupe. If you want to...

Thanks for the pic. I was searching the internet catalogs for gas struts last night and found a supplier that sells exactly those brackets and a range of struts. Heading over there on Monday to get them. Your Barracuda looks awesome! Thanks everyone for your help on this.

Ah, thats what I was looking for. Thanks! My original thought was the sliding ratchet style of prop, but maybe it's worth hitting the wreckers to look at some other options.

Hello, Steve here from Australia. I imported a 65 Barracuda from LA last year and am having much fun with it. 1964-65 Barracudas are seldom seen down here which is both good (rarity factor) and bad (no parts) I'm trying to sort out a couple of issues with the trunk lid. The hinges have play...

http://losangeles.craigslist.org/wst/ctd/2485733697.html Nice pickup on the Valiant. I woulda been all over that if I hadn't just bought a nice 65 Barracuda and shipped it to Australia.

Hi. I'm in Australia (a suburb of Melbourne) and I'm looking for a good set of taillight/backup lenses (left and right) for my newly purchased 65 Barracuda. Please PM me if you have some for sale. The Barracuda is about to make the big boat trip downunder and I'm searching for some bits I...

Hi Scotty, It's Steve from Australia about the Barracuda tail light set. I sent a PM about the lenses to you on 28/5, not sure if you got it.

Hey Scotty, did you get my PM I sent on 28/5?

Really interested in a set of taillight lenses if you are able to post 'em to Australia. PM me when you get a chance. Cheers Steve

Just a personal thing, I'm not sure I like the front sheet metal.

Hi. I've just had a deal on a car fall through after months of searching over the internet. I'd even sent the payment to my shipping agent to pick up the car and prep it for shipping. But thats the way the cookie crumbles eh! Except seeing as I'm half a world away in Australia, it makes...
