1968 Barracuda Notch - Plano, TX
What radiator and fan are you using? I'm getting close to orderingone for my '67 383 Barracuda. Is it a 26" wide B body unit? Thanks.
It is a BeCool radiator. I bought it in 2005. There were not a lot of options then, and this required modifications to the frame to make it fit. The fan is "203" Mercedes fan and I have the controller for it developed by Dave Brown (goes by hooziewhatsit) on Moparts. I have not run the fan yet.
Your car is looking great!
Thanks!
Say, where did you find NEW(?) glass for your 'Cuda? Was also wondering what brand of window / door weatherstrips you went with and how you like the fit and seal?
Glass is all new from Sanders Reproduction Glass.

Front window, rear, and all side glass. They have computer patterns for just about any car made. Front I opted for the Solex green tint w/ the blue shade, the remainder is their "Solar Grey" which is about a 15% grey I believe.
For my car they list all 8 pieces. For a '69 FB they do not show the windshield (which I know is the same) and they do not list the wing window glass. I would be surprised if the wing window glass is different '68 to '69, and if it is I would think it is would be minor. If you want to go that route hit me off list and I can send you a detailed picture of the wing glass and you can see if you notice any true difference. You can call them to verify the side glass and the rear window. I spoke to them at a show here several years back and their listings were accurate, they did show that there is a difference between '67 vs '68-'69 Notchback rear glass which many people are not aware of and the '67 vs '68-'69 side window glass and etcetera.
Door weatherstrip: "Top Cat" for the window felts. I think I ordered all from Dixie. Appears to all fit good, I still need to make an adjustment to the channel seal position and I have not driven the car. My impression of Dixie is that they sell a limited selection, but they sell only good quality stuff. http:/www.dixierestorationparts.com
