    fender tag Decoding Values

    Wow, I guess I never looked at the 67 fender tags very carefully. WAY different than my 69!

    Which Fram Oil Filter.

    I realize that Fram filters have a bad reputation. I have always used the Fram 43 on my barracuda because of a header clearance issue. The 43 is a little bit shorter than the 16. I bought several of them several years ago, and my car is due an oil change now. I am looking for a replacement for...

    What is the best/worst you've done when selling at a swap meet?

    Nice. What are a pair of those inserts worth in that kind of condition?

    What is the best/worst you've done when selling at a swap meet?

    Nice. You gotta love stories like that. I was thinking that a clutch would not be a big problem, but lifting the body? That sounds like a big hassle.

    Try this for Small Spot Paint Repair.

    Good idea. I have been cutting a hole in a piece of cardboard.

    What is the best/worst you've done when selling at a swap meet?

    Not exactly a swap meet, but I made out like a bandit on a 69 Barracuda parts car about 20 years ago. My 69 340 Barracuda had an automatic, but I always wanted a 4-speed. I checked with Brewer's, but it was going to be at least $2500 to buy what I needed. I found a 69 Barracuda FB with a running...

    '61 Valiant - Should I restore it?

    YES. Restore it. When you take it to a Mopar car show, there will be 20 E Bodies, 20 64-69 Barracudas, 20 Roadrunners, 20 cars with hemis, but there will only be ONE 61 Valiant. I think you will be surprised how popular your car will be.

    How to Bench Test Wiper Motor?

    I wrote a rather detailed 'How To' article on the forum about two years ago on how to rebuild a wiper motor. It included details about bench testing. It was an easy rebuild. I could not tell from the pictures what WW motor you have. Take a look at the article. It might help. Rebuilding a 2 speed...

    Need Help With Routing the Wiring for 69 Barracuda Hood Mounted Turn Signals Please

    Thanks, @barracudadave67, @junkyardhero and @mbaird. I now know exactly what to do. O hope I can find some of those little plastic clips that hold the wires. It looks like I need several of them. I have two, and they are both broken.

    67 Barracuda Reverse Lights

    when a bulb does not come on, it is one of 4 things: 1. The bulb is bad. Test the bulb and/or replace it with a known good one. 2. The switch is bad. Test to see if there is power going into the switch. If there is, then a good switch will allow power to flow through it when placed into reverse...

    Need Help With Routing the Wiring for 69 Barracuda Hood Mounted Turn Signals Please

    I finally got around to getting the hood mounted turn signals on my 69 Barracuda working. I ran the wires through the hood, but I can't figure out what to do with them after they exit the back of the hood. It looks really weird having two wires just hanging down. If anybody has some hood mounted...

    User Moparofficial not responding..

    I really don't understand it when people jump the gun and complain about people publicly on this forum before they even have a chance to respond. A person could be in the hospital or on a fishing trip for a few days. And then to leave negative feedback?

    Is this what you need? You can have it for free if it is. It’s from a 69 Barracuda.

    Thermostat and housing

    I bought the same Air Gap manifold for my 340. It leaked also. I tried everything I could think of. I bought a new housing (turned out to be cheap Chinese junk that was never going to seal), new gaskets, and different sealers. I wound up buying a Billet Specialties housing with an O-ring similar...

    I went to the Nicest car show on Father’s Day

    I went to the nicest car show on Father’s Day. It was given by the church of a good friend of mine. There were no trophies, but there were a few door prizes. The church also cooked hotdogs for everybody and had sodas and potato chips. I had a dozen (or more) people come up to me, shake my hand...

    You are absolutely right my friend. The last picture is definitely not camping. It's what I call being comfortable. :) :) This is the way I "camp" in comfort. :) :) :) :)

    I FINALLY Found Something That Would Clean the White Letters on my Radial T/A Tires!

    Over the past several years, I have tried Comet, Soft Scrub, Bleach and several products that claimed they would clean the white letters on my tires. Today, almost out of desperation, I tried some Black Magic Bleche-White Tire Cleaner. I got it at O'Reilly's Auto Parts for only $7.50. It worked...

    Who's running the same size tires front and rear

    I've done that. Do you have air shocks and shackle lifts? What size tires? I'd like to see a picture.

    Who's running the same size tires front and rear

    Just the angle of the dangle. 69 all the way around.

    Who's running the same size tires front and rear

    Crap. Good eye! I did not notice. This is an old picture with 235/60/14s all the way around. GOOD EYE. They were mounted on Cragars that are, I believe, 6" wide. A few years ago I put 205/70/14 Radial T/As on it. I regret swapping away from the 235/60/14s.

    Who's running the same size tires front and rear

    So when the Designers at Chrysler put staggered tires on the 1970 Challenger T/A and the Cuda AAR, were they (and all the people who bought them) living in the past and trying to recreate their lost youth? That makes about as much sense as the 'discussion' I got into with someone the other day...

    Looking for bulbs for 69 Barracuda hood mounted turn signal assemblies.

    Thanks, Mike. I literally just found the answer before I saw your post. I looked in my 69 Plymouth Service Manual and found that the proper bulb was a 330 Mini bulb. I did a Google search for them and found them on Amazon. They look right. I ordered a 10 pack for $10 with free shipping. I will...

    Looking for bulbs for 69 Barracuda hood mounted turn signal assemblies.

    I have a 69 barracuda with hood mounted turn signals. I am having a heck of a time finding bulbs for them. There are no bulbs in them now, so I don't even know what they look like. They are quite small. Can anybody help me? Thanks, Mike

    I finally got my hood painted.

    A few weeks ago, I posted a thread that basically said, “oh no what have I done?”. I had about six flaws in my hood, so I decided to fix the flaws, sand it down prime it and repaint it. I had some paint left over from where I painted my car. I finally got it done. It came out pretty good.
