Last month my brother, Ernie brought my Cuda to Calgary where he lives. He volunteered to get the car running and driveable as long as I pay for the parts and supplies. Here are some pics and a video. Here's the car on the trailer Click on the link below to see the car running. Log In or...

I know that this an A body forum, but I need advice about my daily driver, which is a '93 Chrylser Dynasty (it's a Canadian version of the Dodge, but basically the same car). The problem is that it overheats at low speeds, like under 30mph. I put in a new summer thermostat, but I still have the...

I want to check my brakes on my '66 Barracuda. The level is very low in the MC and the brakes are spongy. What I plan to do is inspect the brakes, and if they are still good, keep them, but I feel that it would be a good idea to flush the system before adding and bleeding through new fluid...

A medical student was in the morgue one day after classes getting a little practice in before the final exams. He went over to a table where a body was lying face down. He removed the sheet over the body and to his surprise he found a cork in the corpse's rectum. Figuring this was fairly...

OK, I know this is a 2BBL BBD, but is it a 161 model? I googled images for mine, and they look identical to the one in the photo. Unfortunately, someone removed the tag before I bought the car that it's on. This is a pic of the actual one I'm asking about.

Yesterday my brother and I worked on getting my old cuda started. After mucking around with the points, she finally chugged and ran, BUT the starter kept turning while the engine chugged. We thought there was something wrong with the starter, but after I crawled under the car, I discovered that...

For those who own or will own the early Barracudas with the 273 engine, I want to share my own experience and give advice on the starter removal and installation. Those suckers are extremely difficult to remove because they are caged in between the torsion bar and and exhaust. After a bit of...

Yesterday I put a new coil in my Barracuda. It's hooked up properly for sure, but it feels warm when I put my hand around it. Is that normal?

I need to replace the rad in my '66 Barracuda with the 273 engine. I saw two cars that MIGHT have the rad that I need, but I need to be sure. one car is a '65 Canadian Valiant with a 225, and the other is a 70's Aspen with probably a 360. I could take a 15 minute drive out to the wrecker's with...

I found a car with this slant 6 engine. According to what it says on the air cleaner, is there something special about this engine in terms of horse power?

Last week I went to an auto wrecking yard to find some side mirrors for my cuda. I saw an old Valiant with the mirrors I needed, but I wanted to check under the hood to see what was under it. The hood was very hard to open, so I simply took a large flat screwdriver to see if I could get the...

In Pursuit of that Mythical Commando 273 Sound

I haven't built models since I was about 13 or 14. Now that I'm turning 58 soon, I have these waiting to be completed. The '58 Fury will not be the typical red Christine. Instead, she'll be a surf green and white. The '57 Chrysler....I'm not sure yet. I'm thinking black or salmon pink. As for...

Hi my friends, it's been a few months since I joined, and I was asked to post some pics of my old fish. Here she sits as is. My upstairs neighbor was kind enough to build me some blocks. The third pic shows all the rear widow glass chipped away and waiting for the new window, and the last pic...

Hi, everyone. I'm trying to get my '66 Barracuda to start. First, I would like to stress that my battery and connections are fine. When I turn the key to ACC, the oil pressure and alternator guage lights flash on and off. When I turn the key to START, all I get is a click from the starter, and...

Hi everyone! Great to be here! I'm working on my restoration project; a 1966 Barracuda. This is my first restoration project, so, I'll be seeking a lot of advice and asking a lot of questions. I hope to make a lot of friends here and share pics, stories, and trivia, car or otherwise. Thanks for...
