    Rust spot

    All, I am in the process of prepping a car to paint, it is a low budget old VW bug. It has many spots coming through the current paint. Have taken a DA and smoothed them down to metal but the rust mark never seems to go completely away. Though the project is low budget I still want the...

    Barracuda sag

    I have a 69 notchback that a title body work turned into a major deal. One thing leads to another. Anyway I put the car on jack stands under the axles and LCAs then installed frame connectors. I am moving onto relocating the springs. While moving the jack stands to under the frame connectors and...

    Passenger side mirror?

    This is what I was looking for. I have the factory brochure and it does not show and mention any side view on passenger side.

    Passenger side mirror?

    Just doesn't make sense that the vent hits it to me.

    Passenger side mirror?

    I had an all original 69 Barracuda I bought from the original owner in 83. The car was a fully loaded 318 car. It had the drivers mirror but no passenger mirror. This leads me to believe that they did not factory install mirrors on the passengers side. The 69 I have now has been tinkered with by...

    Passenger side mirror?

    On my 69 Barracuda there is a side view mirror on the passenger side. I have not seen one before. I looked in factory sales brochure and cannot find any reference to one being available. My vent window hits it when opening, this doesn't seem right. Is this mirror factory installed, or did a side...

    Thanks everyone. While it's not exactly the news I wanted. In perspective it could be worse.

    69 Barracuda Reverse Lights

    But these are for a fastback? I am of the notchback variety. I will probably hang on to them unless someone on here goes looking for them. Thanks, Andy

    69 Barracuda Reverse Lights

    :wack:Interior lenses? It just keeps getting better and better. I had a gut feeling the previous owner had robbed parts off of this for a friends project and put back the junk left over. Oh well, Thanks for the info. I'll start looking around for the sockets and lenses. Anyone know...

    69 Barracuda Reverse Lights

    My Barracuda is the gift that keeps giving.:banghead: I have owned the car for two years and been slowly working my way through all the bugs. This weekend is the nonfunctioning reverse lights. As I pulled them apart I found there was no socket or bulb. I have a few questions for the group...

    69 Barracuda grille work

    One thing leading to another is a way of life for me. As I started dressing up the grilles, I ended up changing the inner fender that the previous owner had done a little body work at the battery tray area. So I bought a AMD inner fender installed and painted the engine bay. By no means is it...

    69 Barracuda turn signal indicators

    The turn signal indicators on my Barracuda have been butchered. I am looking for new / operable ones. Can anyone post a picture of what the 69 hood mounted turn signal indicators look like? Does anyone make repros? Thanks, Andy

    OK; Rust-proofing/Undercoating?

    Some food for thought; Most cars that were undercoated back in the day have not experienced the rust issues that cars without did. I have picked up quite a few older cars and each one with undercoating has not had issues where the undercoating has been applied. Another benefit is it cuts down on...

    69 Barracuda grille work

    Hey everyone Thanks for the compliments and input. I'm going to black out behind the grille. I see many people talking about the correct grilles for a S car. My car is originally a /6 car, so I am not to worried about being correct. A long time ago (30 years) I wrecked my first Barracuda, lost...

    69 Barracuda grille work

    Hey guys, I been working at some smaller projects on my car. I really like the looks of the Formula S black grilles. I had a set about 4 years ago that my wife coerced me to sell, since I did not have a Barracuda at that time. So I figured I would give my grilles the once over. I have...
