    64-66 Dart GT Question - cat whiskers

    I had a customer make a longer outer sweep for his 66 dart from a 70 challenger set. then he complained that it was scratching his SS divider post (I told him it would eventually rub scratches in it if he used it a lot.) I had to take the longer one off and replace it with the original one I was...

    Time to play "Which Color Windlace is it?"

    IF you are looking for a direct match for 60 year old windlace , unless you get it from SMS and make your own it just WON'T happen. they don't make the colors to match anymore. it's all about what you can find that's closest. I work in a leather custom trim shop and have to hand make windlace...

    '66 Dart Tail Light Lenses

    Both have light scratches that should polish out, whichever one you want is up to you (blue or red dot)but the other one is going on my car thats in the shop now:) the chrome bezel ring is just bad! I'd use yours since it looks a little better than this one.

    64-6 Barracuda rear corners are getting closer!

    just an update on the rear corners. one 1/2 sheet of the thicker material came in and was put to good use. doing a bondo test on the rear latch piece (then I'll make it up in Aluminum filled epoxy $$$$ for a real mold if this makes the grade.)

    Power rear windows in an early Dart?

    No, but they are easy to make, grab some poster board and use the motor mounting holes to make the main part and mark the gear location and size, then take the gutted manual regulator and place the gear hole over the gear teeth in the regulator double check to make sure it clears the raise and...

    I'm a webster exit but actually closer to bushnell than Webster. I'm probably going to ask Waggin if I can test fit since he is about the closest barracuda owner I know of for test fitting. plus I have stuff to bring back to him since doctor has okayed my light work restriction
