I always thought a 67-69 Barracuda Fastback would make a decent speed car. I am sure you would have to tweak the nose and tail a bit to improve the car's aerodynamics (like they did with the Charger 500), but the car looks like it might be slippery enough at high speed. And if there are engine...

That is what I call thinking ahead! Or not! :lol::lol::lol:

Hey, guys, I am not a racer. I have a question I hope one of you can answer. Why is there such a following for Powerglides in racing. I would think that a well-built Torqueflite, or some other 3-4 speed automatic, would be preferable over a 2 speed Powerglide. Are they that much stronger than a...

Wow. Hard for me to believe that some of you are talking about racing in a few days, when it is snowing outside here right now.

You can trust me.

Walmart has men's underwear for 50% off. :lol: :lol:

Never heard of Glory Days. They may be great. Just be Careful. if you are not familiar with them do some research. Don't just go for the cheapest price.

Install AC? :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

730 + 175 = 905. The OP was talking about over 1000 HP.

Hey, @pittsburghracer, could you post a few pictures of building them and a picture of one cut in half after cooked. From the pictures you posted, I can't figure out how they are built. Thanks.

First of all, I am glad your son is OK. Second, it sounds like he did an excellent job handling the 'crisis', and third, that damage doesn't look too bad from the pictures.

Congrats! Now for the 8s?

YAY! Not much better than that. Good job, we are all happy for you.

Crickets!

I did my new 2018 black Jeep Grand Cherokee in 2018 with the Blackfire treatment I mentioned above. It sheeted water for three years, then it just beaded water. It is time for another application. It lasted 4 years.

I could not agree MORE with you. It is all about prep. Just like painting a car. I've been doing body and paint as a hobby for about 45 years. Take my 69 Barracuda, for example. I had at least 750-800 hours (probably closer to 1,000) in the prep for that paint job. It takes a long time to...

The car does look awesome. Let me tell you guys about the DIY ceramic product I found. About years ago I saw a Car show on TV where they used Blackfifre Ceramic Coating from Autogeek. I tried some, and all I can say is WOW. It really does work. The $400 that @B3422w5 is reasonable. Autogeek...

In Topeka there used to be 3 Drive In Theaters. One was the Chief Drive In Theater. It had the neatest lighted sign out front. It closed back in the 80s, and in the 90s, Walmart bought the property and built a huge store. To their great credit, they took the dilapidated sign, had it restored to...

Go to the website you want, double click the address (URL) so that it is all highlighted, press Control + C to copy that URL, go to FABO, open the appropriate post, place the cursor where you want the link and press Control + V to paste the URL link in. Here you go! Drag Strips Closing Across...

If you can get wifey onboard, that is not just a win win; it's a WIN WIN WIN!

Just think of all the money you are saving on racing gas!

They work great. I use them when I am filling in small holes, or if I have a bit of a gap to fill in.

Even if you can't post any pictures, A brief explanation of what you have and what you need help with is necessary. There is NOTHING we can't help with.

Or you could try honesty is the best policy. Go there and tell him you like him and his work. You really do want HIM to do the work, but you are concerned with the delay. Ask him for an honest time of completion.

I think it is 90% with your heads. With those internal parts, you should be well over 300HP. Imagine this. Let's say you have a 500+HP 383. It runs great and you are happy with it. It has good Edelbrock heads that have been ported. So what would happen if you pulled those heads and put on the...

Oh my gosh. That is so funny. I did that once. I spent well over an hour fighting the driver's side into place and then saw the starter sitting on my bench. I called it a day and had something a little stronger than beer.

Wow; that is close. It must have been irritating.

Front disk conversion and adding AC

@MOPARMAGA, I couldn't agree more. When gas goes to $4 or $5 a gallon, and income tax rates nearly double (even though they were promised not to), maybe they will get voted out. I was TOTALLY being sarcastic. With 'MAGA' in your FABO name, I think you know the people I was talking about. I was...

Just the tip of the iceberg. I will just tactfully say that there are some highly placed people who hate car racing. Maybe we should all sell our classic cars and buy a Prius.
