    removing vent window 1965 barracuda

    There is a philips screw that pinches the pivot pin to provide resistance to the window so it stays where you adjust it. You can see it in the above picture of the assembled vent assembly. You may be able to loosen this screw and pull up on the vent window glass.

    Laysons Early-A Modified Filler neck?

    Here's a picture of the molding on a 1965 Barracuda. I think the owner added it themselves. Does look good though. Matches the rocker panel trim.

    65 barracuda Commando 273 /Formula S?

    A 1965 Formula S would have a tach on the left side of the dash. Also the rear valance would have a rectangular cut out for the Commando exhaust resonator tip. Front sway bar too. Spare tire cover would have a "C" cut into it to accomidate the larger Formula S spare tire. I have a 1965...

    15x7 wheels- fit 65 Cuda?

    Here's a couple more pictures. I went from 13" to 15" wheels after doing a disc brake conversion. It's hard to tell from the side view picture, but the car does sit slightly higher in the rear. I really like the look of BobsDart. Torque Thrusts look awesome on that car. Don

    Do you have this emblem on your 66 fish?

    That emblem looks like it's from a 1964 Valiant. Here's a picture from the Valiant.org website. I'd say it's not original for a 1966 Barracuda. Don

    A Couple of 65 Cuda Questions.

    The V emblem was used on 1964 and 1965 Barracuda's, The fish emblem was used on 1966 Barracuda's as a general rule. I've heard there were some late production 1965's that had the fish emblem, though I haven't seen any myself. The only Canadian Barracuda I've seen had the word "Valiant" across...

    The real 273 HP exhaust sound

    Here's a short Youtube video of my 1965 Barrracuda idling. The audio is not the best but you'll get a general idea. The car has a stock 273ci Commando V8 and the Accurate LTD single exhaust system with muffler and square tipped resonator. I like the sound. It's not too loud and fades out...

    SSBC front disc conversion?

    I installed this kit on my 1965 Barracuda last year. The kit is very complete and includes everything. I only needed to buy some additional brake line due to the location I chose on the frame rail for the proportioning valve. The instructions do not have pictures. I used Mopar Muscle...
