Very nice car!!

Pull the back seat if its still there and look for a broadcast sheet. It may also be attached to the back of the glove box liner or under the front seats if they are sill in the car. This is the "Holy Grail" of info on your car and the fender tags can be reproduced if you have it.

The code will be Y39 if its the 340 Special

I always thought the 1971 Swinger Special was a 340 based platform built in Canada only. Anyone got anything different? Canada's Well Kept Secret: The 1971 & 1972 Dodge Dart Swinger 340 Special - Mopar Connection Magazine | A comprehensive daily resource for Mopar enthusiast news, features...

Great starting point at a great price. Hard part is going to be finding all the trim including grill assembly and rear tail light assemblies if you don't have them. Also, the rallye gauge panel with the tach is rare. This stuff is extremely pricy .

Well, that's unfortunate... I just sent an email to OER inquiring about the availability of the part and asked them if they plan on reproducing it. I got an auto response saying it could take up to 5 days to hear back from them. If I hear anything back , Ill post it here.

I just found it listed at Jegs. Like you said, in the ad it says emblem not included 440.00 plus MN2175 - JEGS High Performance

Actually guys , there is a repop . No formula S badge though as Steve said. Here it is. MN2175 - 1969 Plymouth Barracuda, Formula S; Rear Body Panel Molding; Die-Cast EDIT: Just found the badge! https://www.classicindustries.com/product/ml4228.html Hope this helps!

Not sure of the color coding but wouldn't the radio wiring be a 12v switched circuit? Should work if you are only using the power to switch on relays.

Now this is a very cool and informative post!! Thanks for doing this.

Before you go through all that trouble, have you considered 66-67 Plymouth B body or C body headrests? They are almost identical to Barracuda headrests and a whole lot closer than 68"s 67 C-Body 1967 Plymouth Satellite/GTX Here's a set from a 67 barracuda for comparison,

Ok, here's a couple of ideas . Get some molding trim t-studs that look like this. Use a Dremel tool to grind away the rest of the broken stud. You will need to file the base of the t -stud so that it fits inside the molding and sits flat on the molding but doesn't come up higher than...

Could you post a pic of the broken stud position on the trim?

So after initially scrubbing this idea for Steve for his 67 Barracuda with 15" sbp wheels, I had a thought. Get this wheel which will fit in the trunk well and buy a 4" to 4.5" adapter. That solves both problems! 1" 1960s Mopar Chrysler 5x4 to 5x4.5 WHEEL Billet Adapters SAE 1/2x20 studs/nuts...

You are correct 33IMP ! I thought Steve had converted to 4.5 . I missed the sbp 15" Sorry Steve!!

Hey Steve, Not sure if you remembered this but MoparMatt2000 put me on to this for a spare, 24" and will fit the spare wheelwell and keep a flat trunk floor. Aluminum Lincoln town car spare. There must be hundreds of these cars in salvage yards in Toronto as they were airport limo's I'm...

Awesome! Very clean car and love the "wheels up" pic. I've always said Plymouth missed the mark by not making this body style and the convertible in Formula S trim.

That is sweet!!

That's exactly the experience I had with my unit also built by Spectra who also made my gas tank RRR. No issues with mine either.

Agreed but just pointing out that if he wanted to, it could be done by the op himself. I do get your point though.

I think the person/business that prepped the parts for shipping is directly responsible and should make this right. No way were those parts making it back to the customer unscathed ,packaged the way they were.

Here's my grill sections, done at home with no special tools but, a lot of time and patience and, they were the originals and pretty rough after 50+ years, especially the headlight trim bezels.

BTW, folks, A few years back I posted a trick I discovered for painting the black stripe on my 68 Barracuda Grill, trunk trim and console lid. I completed this about 6-7 years ago and black stripes are still perfect. Here is is again for anyone who's interested. These grills and exterior...

The parts can definitely be repaired.

Hey RRA, I just used interac at the local post office.

Have you priced upper and lower 1968 Barracuda trunk trim lately? Here's what it costs to replace. Pipe is cheap and almost indestructible insurance in comparison. https://www.classicindustries.com/product/all-years/plymouth/barracuda/parts/ma1867.html

Nope! I used them to ship parts in tubes. Unless something changed in the last year or so... EDIT: Hi Mopar Head, just checked on-line and you can still ship in round tubes. You may be charged a little more because the sorting machinery has a hard time moving a round tube so its sorted by...

Hey folks, I found a sure fire way to ship trim to be restored to protect it from damage. Use black PVC pipe and end caps. Lots of different diameters available. Tell your supplier to re-use it to ship back. Best part is you can use it around the house for repairs after you get it back!
