Carlisle is back, the crowd was back, the vendors with a few exceptions are back, the swap meet will not disappoint. I could not see it all in a day, but what I saw was on par with previous successful shows. If your on the fence about going, I give it a thumbs up

I don't have the turn signals on my Barracudas hood, but since the working wiring /sockets are on the firewall I'd like to add them. I don't know which ones are correct for a 69. I've seen ones for sale but always listed as a fender mount for various years. Some have an exposed screw head , some...

I bought these non mopar coated rotors for my truck, my question: should I scuff the coating off the contact area? Using ceramic pads. Thanks FABO!

After getting all you guys input in my thread "Fuel tank recommendations ?" I have finished the install in my 69 Barracuda fastback and have few tip(s) First I bought a Sprectra tank (eBay, Tamraz) made in Canada. Electro nickel plated for corrosion resistance. I replaced the pad, floor gasket...

Good evening all, Looking to replace my fuel tank and have narrowed my choice on E Bay to two. One is made in Canada of automotive grade steel, but has a non original cross tank indentation, while the other is made in Taiwan of "correct plated steel" of new tooling that has the correct...

I have a 69 340 A727 with a full manual reverse valve body. The converter is 340 high stall. The cam is the old Direct Connection 474/280? The problem is after the trans gets hot, it slips on take off and hardly has reverse. In both cases, alittle rpm and it drops into gear. It pulls great and...

I rebuilt it 29 years ago, a mild, mostly stock 340, and it has been strong and reliable. Recently when I saw metal dust in the oil filter. I did a semi tear down and found the valve spring retainers are scuffing the stamped rocker arms. Its been along time and my memory these days is crap...

Worth the $9.99 the first time. I may not use it again for 30 years (last time I was in the engine ). But that's what made in China is about! It's strong enough for the intended job and won't damage the seal.The driver handle shows no damage from a few good wacks with the 2 pounder. If you...

I have two single groove fan pulleys with small differences. My motor is 69 340. One pulley has grove that is wider at the bottom and has a bevel around the rear lip, while the other has a narrow, deeper bottom on the groove and no bevel on the rear lip. Can anyone say if one is better or...

Me and the ol' lady pulled in to Carlisle earlier today, staying at a flea bag hotel, ate at Waffle house and finished febrezzin the room. We're just here for Friday, wondering if anyone else is here yet and did you bring your car, selling at the show or just attending / looking?

This is a non-mopar but it's mainly a rant anyway: I have a 2008 Ford Ranger with a 4 cyl. w/Automatic 5 OD. 248,000 miles. Transmission went out, lost 3 forward gears and reverse. I don't have the time to work on it so I took it to the most well known tranny shop in the country. Paid out the...

I only use a trans cooler, bypassed the radiator. Mine needs replacing and was wondering what you guys are using and where you put yours. I'm running a 340/727/323s in a 69 cuda. Thanks in advance

I want to remove the front and rear windshield trim on my 69 fastback. What tool(s) works best and how? And the drip rail, I hear bottle opener? Really? Any suggestions or tricks would be appreciated.

So my old switch was wore out but would still work, I had to hold the lever up or down, no auto cancel, brake and flashers, all lights ok. So I got a replacement switch from Van's, and after installing it and trying the right signal, I couldn't see or hear the blinker, but the interior lights...

How much height can you get from the adjusting bolts? Right now about half of the bolt head protrudes below the LCA.

69 barracuda 355 8.75 , green bearings, offset shackles. The gears make a high pitched hum when I'm on the gas but not when coasting but at 55 mph I get a harsh vibration that stops as soon as I let off the gas. Going faster somewhat smoother but not gone. Gears? Gears and driveshaft? Thanks for...

First the problem: hesitates at speed when you let off the gas and then get back on it, feels like a lack of power when cruising but full throttle take off not a problem. Carb is a 3310 750 vac. secondaries, two metering blocks I'm going to go through the carb this weekend mainly to clean and...

Hey all, 69 barracuda, replacing the turn signal switch - what's the catch to getting the wire's terminals to release from the connector?

My 69 fastback came with a stationery rear seat, years ago I scored a seat with folding hardware but something is missing. There must be a cam that goes on the square rod that turns to release the catches on each end of the seat top. What parts am I missing?

A friend saw my redneck engineered exhaust evacuation system and thought it was a neat idea. Wondering if I’m not the only one that uses his downspout drain pipes for this.

Have some new bucket seat covers and foam for my 69 cuda. The foam is for A and B body and the instructions call for minor modifications to the foam in the bolster area. Can anyone tell me what I'm really in for?

Greetings, I’ve always been a mopar owner, 1st fury then 2 chargers, It was early 1980s while looking for a body for a 340 street/strip build I struck a deal for a thrashed drag car -69 fastback barracuda. My deal was for the body, no Motor or trans. Interior was wasted save the door panels...
