Thanks! Very helpful.

Hey gang, I'm having a hard time figuring out which tail housing I have. The car is a '65 Barracuda with a crappy A833OD transmission. I can't really read the casting number. Anyone have experience with this? Thanks!

Thanks for that. I've been browsing for a couple of days on and off and found every clip except the ones I needed. Thanks for the links.

Hey there. I've finally finished re-wiring my '65 Barracuda but I seem to have lost the clips that hold the wiring to the underside lip of the dash. Does anyone have a source for these? Thanks!

Thanks gang. I was hoping for something factory but I cobbled together some bits from McMcaster. Cheerio.

So I need some grommets for my '65 Barracuda. I figured that maybe Classic Industries or Dante's would have have them but no dice. Nothing on ebay either. I'm looking for the fender grommets for the headlight wiring and the the large grommet that lives behind the headlight bucket. See photos...

Okay. I don't absolutely HAVE to have an ammeter, and since I already have a very nice matching set of gauges with voltmeter I really don't need to replace the ammeter with the common Sunpro voltmeter hack. I'll look around and see if I can retrofit some other Chrysler gauge in place of the...

Well, I'm getting done with my Ron Francis wiring conversion. I've also taken the time to make other common sense improvements like adding relays for safety for bits like the cigarette lighter, wipers, and headlights. The kit I'm using completely ignores the ammeter in the dash, and I have a...

Okay. This took entirely too long to figure out but here it is. The part number shows that it's a switch for a '65 Imperial or Coronet. That's odd because those cars should have come with a better wiper setup. Indeed the service manual wiring diagrams for those cars only show 2-speed, 3-speed...

Yes. The part number is 2580174.

Continuing my rewiring project I've come to find that my Ron Francis kit doesn't have provisions for the heater or wiper switch. My car is a '65 Barracuda with a single speed wiper switch. I'd prefer to have variable wipers but it's what I have. Here's my trouble: the large color poster wiring...

Faaaantastic. Thank you!

Hey gang, I'm re-wiring my '65 Barracuda. I need to make new terminals in the large black connector that connects to the back of the instrument cluster. I need new terminals but don't know which these are exactly? Perhaps someone knows... Thanks!

The new aftermarket turn signals are 100% garbage. For over $100 a pop I would expect way better. I've landed a couple of them and the cams are so stiff as to be worthless. Tired of messing with them. Anyone have a NOS unit? @slantsixdan is this something you're into? -m.

Thank you fellas. I finally understand.
