    273 Build

    Mike, How much would you say the overall build cost you. You can pm if you want. I'm thinking about my 273 rebuild. Still all original with 191,000 on it for a 1965 Barracuda. I'm not having any engine problems, but I am debating between getting a paint job and doing an engine rebuild. Thanks Bill

    My 1965 Barracuda

    So I purchased my Cuda a bit ago, but I have slowly been working on her. Money has been tight lately. Been saving up to get a primo paint job. I would love any ideas or things others may have done with their 65' Cuda. It still has the original 273 with 191,000 miles and runs like a champ. So far...

    Thoughts on Hood Insulation

    I have a 1965 Barracuda and My hood insulation needs replacing, but before I do that I'd like some opinions. There are two schools of thought. #1 - The Insulation keeps the hood cool #2 - The Insulation keeps the engine running hot I've heard different ideas. My engine is not beefed up, but...

    1965 Barracuda parts needed

    I'm trying to find the best place to get the clips for my hood insulation. Seems the 65 cuda is just about impossible to come up with clips. I am also looking for some new red seat belts. Thank you in advance for your help

    Who's located in FL?

    It seems like a lot of us are within an hour of each other. Maybe look into a MOPAR cruise later in the year after 200 degree heat and afternoon Tsunamis?

    Looking for a 273 or 318

    I have a 65 Barracuda with 183,000 miles on the original engine and I fear that her engine has given up. I live in Florida. I'm hoping to find one that I can bolt up and go with. Thanks, Bill

    65 Barracuda... Got BAD News...

    Still working on getting the numbers, but I'm leaning more towards an engine rebuild. The Cuda has 183,000 miles on its original engine. When I bought it I asked the guy if it had been rebuilt and he said he wasn't sure. Seemed to run fine and the speedo was broke. Found out it hasn't been... So...

    65 Barracuda... Got BAD News...

    Let me first start by thanking everyone for all of the help. I am a Novice swimming in a big "fish" tank... She is definitely a high miler/smoker. Pouring out from everywhere. I am new to Mopars and bought this car because I saw it and the ad said buy or it will be parted. I had to save her...

    65 Barracuda... Got BAD News...

    It's not the 273 Commando... Just the 273 V8... Would you recommend a rebuild of the 273 or go with the 318 and a few modifications to keep in about the same economy? Thanks for the help

    65 Barracuda... Got BAD News...

    Just for thought... Would the 318 bolt up? What would be a good engine to swap out with for minimal $$$ damage?
