    I posted previously that I had received a copy of the IBM build card on my car from Chrysler Historical. I sent it and copies of my fender tag to Galen Govier for decoding.

    What's the Original Carter Fuel Pump # on a Commando 273?

    What's the original Carter fuel pump number on a 1965 barracuda Formula S commando 273. March 1965 build if it makes a difference. I pulled a 3672S off of it and was wondering if it's the original. Thanks, Jimmy

    [WANTED] SBP 14 X 5.5 Stock Wheels for my 65 Formula S

    Turns out my recently acquired Formula S had 4 of the 4.5" wide wheels and only the spare was the correct 5.5" wide. Since it also did not have the correct wheel covers I'm thinking maybe they were stolen back in the day. I came up with a set of the Formula S wheel covers and they do not seat...

    How to get into the trunk of a 65 Barracuda????

    The 65 Barracuda I just purchased has a partial key broken off in the trunk lock. I've tried everything to manipulate it to open without success.
