    Mystery weatherstripping

    If James doesn't have them, he may know someone who does. The first time I called him, he asked all about my car. Very personable guy.

    Mystery weatherstripping

    You might give James at Detroit Muscle Technologies a call. He always returns my call if I leave a message. Last time I heard he still had a "day" job.

    On my 66 Barracuda, the windlace goes on the inside and weatherstripping goes towards the outside.

    Window seal

    I bought some for my 66 Barracuda from DMT. They sell them flocked or non flocked. Outstanding customer service! Can't go wrong with Jim. Mopar A Body 63-66, B 68-70 Quarter Window Leading Edge Seals - UNFLOCKED

    Window tint question

    Looks great! Tinted windows go well with your paint and stripe. I used to Tint (Back in the day!). Like a post above said, dirt collects at the sweeps, but other than that, I didn't find it particularly difficult. I just cut the tint long enough to reach an inch or so below the sweeps.

    Paint hazy after coolant spill

    Yes, that works on wood sometimes also. I've also steamed out small dents in wood doing that - too bad it doesn't work that way for metal. :BangHead:

    Paint hazy after coolant spill

    I never tried it on vehicle paint, but I've done this a lot on wood finish. The white ring left from drinking glasses, or something hot on your table, is moisture that got into the finish. Pour on a good bit of cutting board oil and very lightly rub it in circles with super fine 0000 steel...

    Thumbs up for DMT

    When I ordered a heater/ac box kit several years ago, Jim emailed to tell me it would ship once they got all the pieces. When I replied "thanks " to his email he asked about my car. We had a great email conversation. You don't see that kind of customer service much anymore.

    Sassy Grass green

    Remember when Ron was selling his car. Not sure if its Sassy Grass Green (it looks a shade lighter) but I like the look.

    66 Barracuda Hood Buffeting at 70+ mph

    I replaced the side ones 6 months ago when one split. But being the cheap *** I am I didn't replace the front ones :BangHead:. Lol

    66 Barracuda Hood Buffeting at 70+ mph

    I just raised the hood bumper slightly. They are both hard as a rock. You think new ones would be softer? Maybe replacing them would help?

    66 Barracuda Hood Buffeting at 70+ mph

    Yeah, I'm sure something got tweaked along the way. I've had the car over 8 years and I haven't found anything noticeable, but something is going on. Took the car out and about 95% of the flutter (good term) is gone. There's a slight bit on the driver's side. I'm going to raise the bumper...

    66 Barracuda Hood Buffeting at 70+ mph

    Ok, when I checked play at the latch this morning, I had around 3/16" of play. But there was no adjustment left in the latch. I pulled the latch and extended the adjustment slots. Now it takes a bit of pressure to get it to latch and has Zero play. The stiffening plate is solid. Thanks for...

    66 Barracuda Hood Buffeting at 70+ mph

    Thanks @ZooKypr . The back of the hood is good and tight. Just both sides of the front start bouncing up and down starting at about 70 mph. I'm going to have a good look at the latch area and adjust it down to get rid all the play.

    66 Barracuda Hood Buffeting at 70+ mph

    I'll let you know. I definitely want to reduce the amount of it.

    66 Barracuda Hood Buffeting at 70+ mph

    Thanks all. Sounds like the fix is going to be the latch. I'll get out there today and check out the latch and stiffening plate, and adjust the latch down.

    66 Barracuda Hood Buffeting at 70+ mph

    I hadn't thought about it before, but looking at the way it lays, I'm going to check out the seal also.

    66 Barracuda Hood Buffeting at 70+ mph

    Sucks getting old and forgetting stuff, lol. Yes, only one block per side. I'll research to see if that's correct, but there's only one slot for them.

    Like an airplane! Once you get past a certain speed, it smooths out!

    66 Barracuda Hood Buffeting at 70+ mph

    Thanks! I'll adjust that tomorrow. I may raise the bumpers just a hair too.

    66 Barracuda Hood Buffeting at 70+ mph

    Here are some pictures. The gap in the seal. Anyone know what this hole is for? Here's the bumper in the back.

    66 Barracuda Hood Buffeting at 70+ mph

    I appreciate the suggestions! All splash guards are in place. I do see on the hood to radiator seal there is a gap towards each side. All clips are in and I remember buying the seal for a 66. I may see how I can secure it down tight in those areas. Gerald, the 66 has those side bumpers but...

    66 Barracuda Hood Buffeting at 70+ mph

    I have those. I tried raising them but it raises the hood above the fenders. I'll try it again and take a drive to see if it helps.

    66 Barracuda Hood Buffeting at 70+ mph

    I think it's the entire hood but only on the sides near the fenders. The hood feels solid.
