My uncle's back in '72-3.

I had to get Roush emissions & fuel economy testing on a Ford E-250 with the 4.6, Chevy Silverado with the 5.3, and a Dodge Ram with the 5.7 Hemi. Testing started with stock readings. The company's product was added and all 3 were tested again. In the baseline phase, we did the Ford & Chevy...

I am a terminal fan of the '68 Barracuda, love convertibles, convert auto trannys to manual, so I am a loyal follower from now on! Please share your journey.

Ouch!! Sorry for whoever you got it from.

You never mentioned a parts car?!? Tell us about that one.

Just saw this over on the Street Freaks thread.

I'll concur with big condenser and replace drier advice. If more folks agree with you, you're probably right!

Looks like a proverbial "black box" to me! Who are you trying to impress? Judges at a car show? Fellow enthusiasts? Or are you simply trying to create 'functional'? BTW, looks like a Bud Industries enclosure. Am I right??

My favorite year is the '68. I'd take what you have over ANY '66 any day of the century! You have a most precious possession there.

Your pictures bounce from black to grey, fresh to sanded; however, it looks awesome. All I can say is it'll probably blow away the judges at the 1st event you attend (although I didn't exactly follow what you did)! Believe me, I follow everything you do!!

My uncle introduced me to the white/red combo over 30 years ago. I've developed an appreciation for it because of that. Looks awesome!

Look at the 1 and 2 star reviews: "1.0 out of 5 stars Vastly overstated capacity Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2024 These batteries are marked as having "9900 mAh". My testing using 5 testers and 9 tests averaged 1226 mAh -- only 12% of the stated capacity!" Another: "1.0 out of 5...

First: 18650 indeed denotes the physical size -- 18 mm in diameter and 650 mm in length (Metric here). Second: Lithium Ion batteries have "Nominal" voltage rating (that would be the 3.7 volts) and max charge rating (there's your 4.2 volt number). In all probability, you have Lithium Cobalt...

The 7 1/4" rear absorbs less power parasitically than larger (8 1/4" or 8 3/4") offerings. To maximize power, the smallest axle housing that can handle the job is the best one for the job. I think you already know this, though.

Dang! Where'd I put my sun glasses?? That's bright.

I love the way you're working to preserve a stock look. I cringe at butchered cars with garish cages and such. I'm following!

Did you happen to buy your car from Gary in Halifax, PA? It would have had a 340 T/A 6-pack with a rusty no-paint block.

You may find the '67 grill grows on you. I always wanted to put one on a Duster.

My dream car is a 1968 Barracuda fastback -- like yours. I wouldn't care if it were a /6, 318, or Formula-S car. I have in my mind mods I would do to make it better, and what you're doing to yours aligns very well with my thoughts. All I can say is I love your car and what you're doing!

What's wrong with Comp Cams? I've used them for decades and they're always my 1st choice. I have a Jeep 4.0 to 4.6 stroker and chose Comp Cams for it. I haven't fired it yet, should I be scared? Educate me.

So I started reading through this thread thinking to myself, what a turd. As I watch you transform it into something incredible, I'm thinking to myself, "I have to make some meaningless post so I'm subscribed!" You do fabulous work!

I did a body colored dash once on a '70 /6 Duster. I retrofitted a Rallye dash from a '71 340, added Rallye wheels, color matching (though not factory) stripes, and sold it to my brother for about 1/2 what I had into it because he wrecked his DD and needed a new ride NOW. (This was 1987.) It...

Those type checks allow you to find glitches before they get buried. Great work.

For the steering box, the Jeep Cherokee version has successfully been adapted to older A/B Body applications. If you're not a stickler for originality, maybe look there.

My guess is mid- to late-production. How many '75 Dusters were made? Yours is your VIN number of total production. Just a rough guess.

As for production date, the last 6 digits of your VIN can give you a rough idea. Low numbers are early production, while high numbers are late production.

I'm self employed, I work out of the house, I have no boss standing over my shoulder. Another thing that helps motivate me is I keep a daily log of everything I do. This log is then shared with 3 other people; folks that I work with and answer to. It's like the gold star on the board in...

Preface; I'm 57. I can relate to diminishing zest & zeal to get things done -- to a point. We got rid of public/cable TV back in 1999. I don't have that distraction (but obviously I now have the internet). If there's a choice between watching a sitcom or sanding a fender, the choice becomes...
