Considering putting a Grant Classic Nostalgia Tuff Wheel on the 68 Barracuda. I have read several posts here at FABO that the Grant adapter part number 4313 will put the steering wheel too close to the dash and the best fit is with using an OE style Tuff Wheel adapter. Will this aftermarket one...

Hello, installing seat belts with shoulder restraint in the Fast Back 68 Barracuda. This ‘68 was built in Oct of ‘67. Had the roof brackets, but not the mounting nut, I have that resolved. My question is where is the seatbelt retractor mounted? I am using a set of belts from Westco. They...

Finishing the interior, I have three window crank spacers, One is thicker than the other two. See photo. What is correct for my car, are the front and back different thicknesses? Or are they all the same and somehow one got mixed in. I know I am missing one set of window crank-spacer, IIRC it...

Reinstalling the backseat trim in the fastback 68 Barracuda. For the trim that goes around the rear covered panels, what holds the trim in place? Certainly there are screws that mount the fabric covered rear side panels,, is there a clip that goes under the screw head and slides into the trim.

Finishing up the re new process on the rallye dash. Concerning re attaching the plastic pegs that hold the lenses and the lenses centers in. I have read posts where folks said they re melted the plastic peg with a soldering iron, I am guessing that one would need to add a small amount of...

There are a couple of cracked, mis shaped spots on the upper dash pad on the 68 Barracuda. Reading the posts here on FABO concerning replacement dash pads and dash caps, it seems that installing a dash cap for 1/3 the price of a new dash pad is a viable option. so a couple of questions 1) does...

Hello, The door panel covers on the 68 Barracuda are actually in decent shape. It is the OE hardboard backing that the cover attaches to that is cracked and water damaged. This car has the deluxe interior so the door panels have the map pockets. I am going to try to re use the existing covers...

has anyone used the 1606 Procar-Scat seats in their A body? Procar Sportsman Racing Seats 80-1606-61L thanks

have any of you renew a rally dash and not re-flash all of that shinny chrome. The dash in the 68 Barracuda is sound, has never been hacked into, but has most all of the chrome missing, the rest is age worn. This car will have a day two appearance, I am thinking of renewing the OE gauges...

I am going to have the compete floor pan replaced in the 68 Barracuda due to rust. The shop that I am working with said they would rather do a complete floor pan rather than patch in sections for the driver-passenger and driver side areas, the center drive shaft hump is solid, but I guess it...

anyone install shoulder belts in a non shoulder belt car? Wondering how much if any roof reinforcement would be required in a car like a second generation Barracuda that does not have a B pillar? For where the shoulder belt hangs above head height. I currently have Chrysler Sebring seats...
