Sweet!!

Support, that's a twin edge sword right! So yes she supports it, she is the reason I got into this at all really. But on the other hand, I know she would prefer that I get all the "honey do's" done that need attention first, I think we all make that mistake. But overall, she supports the...

Ok true story! When I was getting Wanda on the road I had to find the front rubber brake lines right! So I go to autozone and they have one of two I need, but the other store (a few miles away) has the other one. Cool right? So off I go, and I walk into the store and ask the twenty year old...

It's three at this time. This is an annual event in that the Austin, Houston and San Antonio clubs meet for fun, fellowship and Mopar talk. This is my third year of attending and sometimes we get quite a few folks gathered. Come out even if you can't drive you Mopar. It's a great chance to...

Hey folks, Sorry such short notice but the Mopar Muscle Club of Austin and the San Antonio and Houston clubs are having our annual Tri-City picnik this Saturday April 23rd in Bastrop Texas. See the flyer for details, and this is a great way to meet other Mopar owners around here! Bring your...

Hair Dryer, first and get it off, then some lighter fluid for the residual sticky stuff or WD-40. John B.

Thanks Night Moves! I could just write a check and be done with it, but what's the fun in that right! Besides it's way more fun and rewarding to tackle a problem and design and build something to correct that problem. They do it at NASA all the time! So part of the reward for doing so is the...

To everyone thanks for the comments. I finished it off with an Edelbrock chrome 14 inch air cleaner, and it fit perfectly despite my modifications with the "custom" throttle bracket! And yes it is an A/C car and yes it would be safer with all steel tubing to the carb! However at the rate I...

To all the Central Texas Mopar Brothers and Sisters! The Lone Star Hotrod round up Cruise In is this Saturday night 4-2-2011 on South Congress Ave. in downtown Austin Texas! This is the largest hot rod and custom cruise in, in our area and is open to every make and model automobile you can...

No engine pull this time around, I am building a nice 318 .030 overbore and all. I will do the paint and everthing when that swap is made. That will be a couple of years though. Just want to keep driving her for now while I rebuild a new drivetrian for her. The least amount of downtime is the...

Thought ya'll would want to see the finished product! So here it is! John B.

I just went and looked at my old emails, It's 67 273 cast iron intake. Bought it in January of 2009! Hope that clears up any confusion! And yes a single plane! Old picture, I now have all the parts on her, and YES a metal fuel filter. I will take pictures of the completed finished project...

I bought it from a BOG member "Barracuda Owners Group" about a year and a half ago. It's a 68 Chrysler small block intake cast iron. I would think it's from a 318, or a four barreled 273, not really sure. I do know that it's not the LDB4 or whatever. And it is a single plane for sure. That's...

Well it's complete! The carb swap and all that entails is done! I went from a two barrel BBD to a Carter AFB and I used a stock 68 iron four barrel single plane intake! I ended up using a one inch carb spacer to clear the throttle plate openings and when all was done I now have a great deal...

Got her fired up and now just need to set timing, Yee Haa! Here's a question! Does anyone know who makes a distributor wrench these days? I have hell with the clearance in the dizzy area and trying to tighten down the thing with a flex head and socket SUCK! Anyone bought a dizzy wrench lately...

Thanks, I know I have that one for sure!! So I may be able to lock my car very soon!! John B.

So I have a new ignition switch and new trunk lock, lost the original set of keys a while back. So the door locks don't have a key therefore I can't lock the doors. My question is what key was the same as the door lock key, was it the trunk key or ignition? I have I think both old locks and...

Is this not a Mopar site? The thing about vettes and such is that there are so many around. Not really that special! I mean it's a vette! I am old school when it comes right down to it. I fell in love with the car I have because of the way it looks from the factory. Yes I like cool wheels and...

Those could be really cool all cleaned up, Are they SBP? John B.

BWDART, You are just down the road from me. Have we met? It's nice to have help! And someone pretty to look at, well that's a bonus! Do you ever go to Cabela's? John B.

That dude is on crack or something!

What no engagement ring yet?

I have an O'Reilly and a Walmart group 24 for my 67 Barracuda. Yours might be a group 24 as that was a popular size back in the day. I peel all of the stickers off and place green sticky round dots on the top. Yea not correct but it does get double takes.

I like hand washing as it allows me to really bond with Wanda and feel every curve and shape she has! That sounds weird right? John B.

Before you spend another dime on your project, Do yourself a favor and get a factory service manual for your car. It will have everything you need to know about and answer most of your questions. Even NASA engineers use manuals because most engineers are anal about documentation. You can...

Jimmy? Awesome! John B.

Faith. That is the word of the day! Faith that all will be COOL!

Let's hear the name you have givin your car and the story behind it if any! I'll start. My 1967 Plymouth Barracuda is named Wanda. As in A Fish Called Wanda! My wife suggested it since I could not come up with anything good. O.K. Ya'lls turn.

Here it is with ALL the logo's! Looks even better than before now that everyone is represented! John B.

Is there a FABO logo that I can get in digital format? If So presto and it's there. I looked for one at the online store but nothing there I can download or copy and paste. Does anyone have a FABO logo jpeg? John B.
