69 Cuda Restoration
With the light at the end of the tunnel in view, I figured now would be a good time to finally make a thread dedicated to the restoration of my 1969 Barracuda Cuda 340 package car.
Car is factory Q5 and H6W.
Front suspension: PST 1.03 torsions, Bilstein shocks, QA1 upper & lower control arms, Hotchkis sway bar, and QA1 strut bars. 11/32 tie rods with QA1 sleeves.
Rear Suspension: Hotchkis leafs, and Bilstein shocks.
Brakes: FMJ spindles with slider calipers, Dr. diff 10.7" rears and man brake master.
Engine: 10.5:1 JE 2618 pistons, 4.1" bore, stock stroke. Eddy air gap, Custom grind Hughes mech roller/ lifters/ springs/ retainers, Comp mag roller rockers, MSD e curve pro billet, ARP main/ head studs and wavelocs. Holley ultra 750, Milodon road race pan setup and all the other small stuff that goes along.
Drivetrain: Mcleod clutch & flywheel, Dennys alum shaft, 3.91 gears in the 489 with billet spacer, Dr. diff bbp axles, and the trans gone through.
Interior: Legendary covers/ door panels/ sun visors. ACC carpet and mats. Instrument specialties restored the cluster/ bezel/ console. PG classic wood grain wheel and added a factory tach.
Exhaust: TTI stepped headers, 3" x pipe exhaust with 3"tips.
The grilles are being refinished now, and then the car can have the hood repainted.
