Thanks guys! I found one at Wildcat.

I need a roof for a 67-69 Barracuda notch-back, as well as the tulip panel. That's it. Thank you.

Dang it...I need the money for school...but it sure sold quick. Sold and gone. Major sad face.

Hi all. Sadly, I have to sell my Barracuda to help pay for college. I just hope that when I graduate and...get a job :-s that there will be another one out there for me. But, here it is. I'm asking $5500. The good: Chicks dig it. It's been a daily driver in my family since 2001; I've...

Nice stuff. When I was 18, I had a gold '66 Barracuda with the slotted mags. I'm currently hunting for some 14" slotted mags with the 5 x 4" lug pattern for my '67 Barracuda. The MoPar wreckin' yard up here has 'em for $500...oof. Anyone have some for sale?

This makes me nervous. I am planning on doing body restoration on my '67 notchback, and I'll probably have to chop the top off and weld a new one on, because of extensive rust damage under the vinyl. (I'm going to take a class at the local community college, which has all equipment and a...

Nice looking car! http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/ctd/1170879580.html

I've become a huge fan of slantsix.org in the last couple of weeks! Great info there.

No fun. I blew my knee out skiing a few years ago: ACL, MCL, meniscus tear, and bruised tibia. I got the cadaver tissue as well...kind of creepy at first. But I was back at the Tae Kwon Do in about 6 months. One word: Oxycotin! And some whiskey...

Your yellow car sure looks familliar...I like it! There's another guy on here with a yellow on black '67 as well. And welcome to Fishthatkills!

I have a Holley 1920 carb. I am having trouble getting my engine to idle correctly. I have heard that I may need to adjust the float setting on my carb. How is that done? Thanks! Thomas

I am glad you said something; I'm in the same boat with you. Of course, I understand that there are some in our generation are lazy as described, but also those of us who earned what we have! I've had a job since I was 15, and have never had anything paid for by anyone but myself. And I have...

Great car! I got mine for $2000, sweet deals.

I don't beat myself up for it now, but I did back then! I have since learned what you said, that primer will absorb water. Also, I've been told that you should apply mineral spirits or alcohol to the bare metal before applying bondo to eliminate any water residue, which I failed to do as well.

There are three community colleges in the Portland area, and one of them (Clackamas CC) is amicable to hobbists, I've been told. The one closest to my house is more profession-oriented, but has evening classes. I figure I'd rather pay a few hundred dollars to educate myself and do the work...

Awesome, thanks!

That's what I was told. So would that suggest that I have a leak somewhere in the intake manifold or gasket, since that line is on the manifold?

I spent a good hour or so taking the distributor out, rotating the shaft one spline at a time in both directions, and re-installing it. There was only one position where the engine would run at all.

Nope, very subtle difference, if any. Have had the screw nearly all the way in, and nearly all the way out.

Thanks for all the input. I would eventually like to rebuild the engine, but since it runs for now, I think that will be the last thing I do; it needs new suspension, and desperately needs to be rid of rust. I want to rebuild it for a couple of reasons; I want the experience and satisfaction...

I hope I never get rid of her. I had a '66 Barracuda about 16 years ago, (I was 19), and I didn't treat her right. I cringe to think that I might still have it, had I tried harder. I got frustrated and deshoveled when I ruined the body by trying to bondo the dings and dents myself, having...

So if I close the choke valve a bit when it's running warm, the idle does smooth out, but not 100%; still kind of has a hiccup, but very subtle. I replaced the PCV valve, and cleaned out the oil breather really well. I've tried pinching off every hose I can find (vacuum advance, brake boost...

Great advice; there is a community college nearby, and I know they have auto body courses. And I hadn't thought of what may be lurking unseen under all that paint. Thanks! What about replacing the vinyl? What kind of a mess would that be? I'm still not sure about keeping the color/vinyl...

Can some one tell me the advantages (in terms of power and performance) of boring out a 225 and installing a 4-barrel carb and headers? If I did that, would I also need to upgrade my transmission? Thanks! Thomas

So, I'm a bit naive to the whole rear end swap. I know that I'd like to have higher performance equipment on my car. It currently has the 7.25 inch rear end. All engine and transmission related issues aside, I'm just wondering what it takes to replace the rear end with a 8.75 inch pumpkin...

Hi all, The biggest concern about my '67 Barracuda right now is stopping the rust = new paint job. I have yet to take it to a body shop for an estimate; I'm afraid to, but may resort to that. There is rust mostly under my vinyl top, especially near the windshield. I will definitely need help...

I'm going to make a bumper-sticker that says "I :heart: gasoline". It's nice and pleasant in Portland, as well. Been in the mid-70's to 80's since last week!

NICELY DONE!

You measure it like you're drawing a star, right, (or as in a tightening pattern)? From one bolt hole to a bolt hole across the hub?

I was looking for a part at my local MoPar wreckin' yard, but they didn't have it. However, they sent me all these links to MoPar yards all over the country. Thought I'd share it with everyone: Desert Valley Auto Parts 800-905-8024 www.dvap.com Dr. Mopar (Mopar only) (512)376-2148...
