Chrysler "Build Sheets"
Thanks everyone for posting to this. I did not know about the heavy duty springs or the Formula S torsion bars. The springs, however, were not heavy enough, because when I was loaded down in 1978 coming into Winslow, Arizona (such a fine sight to see) with a heavy Snap-on tool box, all my belongings and a 175 Honda strapped to the rear, the differential was about 1 1/2 inches off the ground. The Texaco guy sold me a new radiator cap and a set of rear "helper prings," which I only removed about two years ago. My vehicle also was sold with 13" wheels, which surprised me. It was also a very late model 1966, so they were probably using everything up in Hammatrak (or whatever that place is called) that they could before the 67s came out.
To answer another question, yes, even though it was purchased in Montana, the Barracuda did have a California emissions package on it. I vaguely recall it as some kind of a metal box with a lot of wires. My brother removed that stuff before I pruchased the car and took it to Colorado in 1978. None of it was saved, but who would want it? Regards, FischFace
