I have a '69 GT convertible /6 car that someone has cobbled a 340 into, homemade motor mounts. fool even left the 7.25 rear in place. here we go, I understand that the 273 motor mounts changed somewhere in the '60s. I have read 65DartGTConv's thread on removing the K member dated 10/2012, love...

caw440, yes they fit. recently put a set of quarter skins from YO on my '69 S convertible. they fit well, they were cut and welded along the uppermost body line before the break to horizontal. they did take a small bit of adjusting, have your trunk floor extensions and such in first, measure...

KP, IF you drive it anymore, lock out OD. sounds a lot like a Crown Vic I had. check the control cable at the intake plenum. mine had broken loose from the accelerator linkage and acted a lot as you describe, delayed shifts, overdrive just dropped into neutral. was told I was lucky for not...

By any chance has it been stored in a hot garage for an extended period, top down? Mine was and evidently the top material shrunk, stopping the top about 2 inches short of the header. I gently pulled it manually both with the pump running and without, it still didn't come down all the way and I...

beautiful car, but backwards from what I used to see on the streets around here in Ohio a long time ago. fellow had an early Barracuda with a Dart nose and 64 Dart tail lights sectioned into the quarters. maybe I was just used to the vertical tail lights, but round ones didn't do the fastback...

604, I promise to remember that. should be soon. that is unless I need them on my 69 GT.

Guys, I don't know what was done, but I bought my 69 GTS well used and altered back in 1980. it has 9" brakes on the 8.75 rear. I have had it stored and am just now beginning to work on driving it. it has the 10" fronts which will go away for a 73-76 disc swap. I will need new rear axles for the...

hey folks, rather than pull the interior out of my 65 Barracuda to find out, I will just ask. is there an access panel somewhere in the floor? I have found OHM readings to check it, but certainly don't want to drop the tank if there is an easy way. the gauge just plain doesn't move. hoping it is...

OK. I agree that installing the 3rd member then measuring makes the best sense, after all these years who knows what might no be in factory specs. not intending to hijack this thread, but my question fits "Changing Your Diff." I have hunted and somehow have missed width measurements on these...

can't believe I said south EASTERN Ohio. Dayton is in south WESTERN Ohio. see what happens when you get older? and the mind is not the first thing to go away.

Folks, just bought a 65 Barracuda \6 automatic car. the engine is in great shape except for having the far back exhaust manifold stud broken off. using a screwdriver, I feel a bit of the stud still sticking out. I plan on pulling the intake/exhaust manifolds to see if I can be lucky enough to...

plans for the 65 Barracuda, plans did you say? I have a head full of plans, but unfortunately my pockets are inside out right now. no, truthfully, I plan on keeping it basically stock, my son claimed the 69 GTS years ago for when I am gone and the daughter always liked the fastback Barracudas...

yes, I had considered a T5. my reasons for asking about the manual Chrysler 5 speed came from several angles though. cost- I know where to find one cheap; being all MoPar made me think that no adapters would be needed since the V6 was a derivative of the 318, I suspected that that the bell...

didn't even think about the automatic when I wrote the question and I have one in my 03 Durango 2 wheel drive. isn't that a Benz derived piece? anyhow I was speaking about the manual, hoped for OD, guess I'll stick to my A833 and 3.23s. how about the version of the 833 that is 3+OD? any...

have spotted a 5 speed OD trans behind a V6 in a van. worth anything? will it hold under normal driving behind a mild 340 (is there such a thing as mild?)? bigger question, will it fit under a 67-69 A body floor pan? as in size around, length, shifter position? call me a dreamer, but I want it...

I am sitting on a complete Diplomat, a 318 car. good runner, like 80K miles. was going to put it into a 56 Sierra wagon front clip and all, but alas health says no. complete car missing 2 bbl carb--$500 clean title. few miles away, Dayton, Oh. was an everyday driver until some jacka** threw a...

surprised the gtsport handle was available. anyhow I presently have two A body cars. new to me is a 65 Barracuda /6 auto, supposedly for my wife and a 69 GTS 340 four speed convert that I have had for 30 years. hope to make a few friends, maybe even some here in southeastern Ohio.
