    Building a body line help needed

    What size / shape sanding block are you using? Your block should be as long as possible, and at least long enough to span the three low spots you're trying to fill in. I'd recommend you wrap your sandpaper around a wood dowel or piece of PVC pipe to remake the radius along the top and bottom...

    68-69 Barracuda windshield gasket question

    Thanks guys for the replies. I didn't realize there were two designs for 68-69. The link that Rocky posted is for part # WCR-D690, which requires the round lock cord. Steele and Classic Industries sell this one. Does anyone know the part number for the 68-69 gasket that doesn't require...

    68-69 Barracuda windshield gasket question

    Hi, Did the 68-69 Barracuda windshield gaskets require a black lockstrip? I'm confused, I thought the 68-69 didn't require a lockstrip at all. I have purchased two gaskets from two different vendors, supposedly for a '69, and they both require a lockstrip. If anyone knows that a...

    Getting close to paint, gun help?

    I've used my Astro 4014 for a lot of smaller jobs and it has worked great for primer, base, and clear. You'll be satisfied with it especially if you're just a hobbyist. I used an Iwata LPH400 when painting base/mid/clear on my Barracuda. It's an excellent gun but with a little practice with...

    Rear Quarter Windows 68 Barracuda

    I recently installed the quarter windows and regulators on my '67 coupe. It wasn't necessarily the "right way". My way included hours of swearing and lots of skinned knuckles. Sure was satisfying when I was done, though. I honestly don't remember how I removed them (it was several years...

    68 Cuda lower 1/4 panels? trunk extensions ?

    The guys at Auto Body Specialties told me to buy trunk extensions for a Duster and trim them to fit. It turned out to be harder than it looked, because the Barracuda trunk extension tapers at the rear and the Duster doesn't. That was 3 years ago; maybe they make something that fits easier now...

    69 cuda trunk extensions

    I used extensions for a Duster, with some mods: -I had to taper the extensions towards the back (Cuda is narrower) -Radius the lower rear corner -Extend the the piece that makes the fender lip a little bit. I'm not sure if it's the easiest way, but it worked for me. The part on the left...

    68 Cuda Fastback trunk floor extensions

    I was told that Duster trunk extensions are the best fit, but it took quite a bit of work for them to fit my '67. I had to cut 1.5" and re-bend the piece to make it taper towards the back, radius the lower rear corner, and shorten the part that welds to the fender lip. I attached a few pics...
