I have a 65 Barracuda and I really don't like how the existing headliner works. I want to make a custom headliner but I am unsure of how. I do have a couple of ideas. I was thinking I could use several pieces of flexible board like Luan and glue some foam and headliner material to it. If I cut...

Yesterday I found information on refurbishing a steering wheel using epoxy putty. It seems easy enough. Has anyone here done it?

My Barracuda has the rear defroster option and I am a bit confused. I pulled it out of the car because it did not appear to be working. I plugged it into a twelve volt supply and I was surprised it works. From what I can tell there appears to be one wire going to the switch under the dash. The...

So apparently I boo booed and bought the wrong cable for my 65 Barracuda. Rather then paying to ship it back can I use the core assuming its the right length? The problem is the transmission side screws into and the original seems to just slide/snap into place.

So none of my gauges are working. I had them tested and they are shot. All I have to say is **** balls. Now comes the moral question. Everything on my car is 100% original and in good shape. The dash is original and very nice the electrical connector is nice etc but I need gauges. I have...

Has anyone tried any of these kits from caswellplating.com. I am considering trying the nickel electroless plating kit for some of my smaller parts. Like the ash trays and maybe the shifter center console. My concern is I am a firm believer in the "you get what you pay for" group. How good could...
