Hello everyone ,
I’m new to forums ….go easy on me .
I started my 67 barracuda restoration quite a while ago ,then life took a u turn ! 20 years later ,( ya 20 ) I’m on track to finish and drive this project .
Currently replacing the 20 year old rusty fuel tank , new tank ,sender, grommet . This seamed sooo much easier 20 years ago . Grommet is not happy about sliding on the filler neck, going to try dialectic grease and boiling the grommet. Parts are from classic industries. I’m open to suggestions.thanks
 

Welcome to FABO!
Those are all good ideas.
Recently went through that myself, helping my brother on his 69 Swinger.
Let's see some pics of your Barracuda!

Being new to forums you'll notice your stuff don't get lost like on other formats.
Keep us informed occasionally on what you're doing . Being in the barn helped preserve it . Clean the debris ( if you haven't ) from the upper frame area where the cuontrol arm mounts and from the doors and other areas you can get to if it's going to be a while till you get to any of those areas.
 
Yes sir ... nice to have you aboard. Don't be afraid to ask questions...... There is every trade, craft known to man
plus some that are made up and that's alright too. Is that a 67???? Thats my favorite A body....... Texas Red
