I just gave my buddy a pair of original 66 springs from a Formula S, 6 on the passenger, 5 on the driver. I’m not saying that’s gospel, just what I’ve seen through the years.

This car has all the formula S suspension parts and the 4bbl engine. You could order all the Formula S parts except for the badging and stripes on any Valiant, or Barracuda in 65/66, it just won’t be a designated Formula S. It will be rarer than an S car tho, which doesn’t really mean much.

The Formula S was primarily a handling package, brought about by the Rallye Pack option from early 65. It consists of…. HD leaf springs, 6 leaves on the passenger side, 5 on the drivers side HD “892/893” torsion bars, .870” dia Front sway bar 14x5.5” steel rims 273 4bbl engine Dash mounted...

Is your radiator support to hood seal in place? How about your lower splash pan seal, and your hood to cowl seal? Without them in place, air cannot be trapped in front of the radiator, it just goes around it. Kinda like sucking through a straw with a hole in it. The idea is to trap air in front...

Wow, that is a sweet little car. Although not a custom, I’m thinking that if this darn car doesn’t sell this year, I might go back to my plan to slam it, put some 17’s all the way around it, 2 tone copper and ivory paint job, and a Gen 3 Hemi!

I gotcher back, brother! I’m grooovin’ whatcher sayin’, and I’m layin down some tasty licks!

There is no trim on the flat straight area, just on the corners. On the straightaway, there’s body plugs that snap into each hole to keep dust and dirt out. That’s it tho, no trim.

I’m switching to the K&N filters. They’re much better made and I’ve heard that Wix is even going downhill

Probably $500 plus. Unfortunately the hood will probably never be used. The S car it’s slated for has been dormant since 1971, because of the aforementioned fender bender. 17k miles on it! 383 4 speed car.

Walking around the Nats swap meet a few years ago and I see a 67 Barracuda hood leaning against the fence in someone’s spot. Super clean hood, and the inserts were perfect. I ask him how much and he says he’s been asking $200 all day but everyone just wants him to take the inserts out, give them...

I’m sure you did as we did, cut the forks off of our parts bike and pound them onto the forks of our “good” bike! Instant chopper! Until you popped a wheelie and the forks and tire flew off and you had to land with no landing gear. Kinda looked like that landing by the kid jumping his bike...

I sure do miss those days. I could’ve been any one of those kids, and did everything shown in the video. Brings a tear to my eye to think that those days are gone.

To answer to the missing pieces…9” drum brakes do not have wheel cylinder push rods. The piston in the wheel cylinder is flat on the outside facing the shoe, and there is a tab on the shoe that is pushed by the flatted piston end. All V8 A body cars came with 10” brakes, front and rear.

Well, when I’m up north working, I can call home, if I stand perfectly still, find a place that has service, and even then it usually drops the call. Internet? Forget it. So, he can maybe call his wife and tell her to pause the shipment, but where’s the package by the time that happens? See...

You’re missing the part where the seller read that the part was not correct for the buyers application, but he already gave the part to his buddy at FedEx to ship. Then he called his buddy to stop the shipping So it wouldn’t be delivered, probably because he felt as if he would refund the money...

I guess if you gave me negative feedback and started this thread before we worked it out, I would just send you the pet and let you deal with it. You’ve been around here, you’ve seen him post….a LOT, so are you in such a hurry to get your money back that you can’t wait until he does message you...

He and his buddies have infiltrated the Roadrunner and GTX site as well, posting that Dart, and a bunch of other wrecked cars as well. I posted a link to this thread and a warning to the members there. Let’s hope this shuts down this bullshit from Mike and his buddy, who’s name is John White...

The oil light on my 66 signet stays on when running. I’ve changed the sender a couple of times, and have traced the wire, no breaks in the wire. Oil is full, no problems with the engine, so I just drive it that way.

I would do as Super-Cuda suggests. And yes, I remember the paste wax thing now, and the clear coat problem. I think it was the long lost member “Mullinax” who fist did a tutorial on this, with almost exactly the same directions as @Super-Cuda offered.

Yes, it’s been done for a couple decades now in the 67-69 Barracuda ranks. Word in the street is you strip the anodizing with Easy Off oven cleaner. in the yellow can only, then polish and clear coat the entire unit. Maybe a little practice run first on some banged up trim.

You can get a nice pencil rubbing from the back too.

We missed you Rob, and I’m glad to hear at least some of the medical issues are in the past. Welcome back, we saved you the easy chair.

Here’s a little fun we had awhile back while 3 of us were redoing our Rallye dashes! My New FABO Reality Show...Rani, I'ma Callin' You Out!!!

383 auto, 69 fastback, really nice car too. SE Michigan!

There is no such piece that does the job you describe. On the lower hinge in your pic is the only hinge control on these cars, the double wheel and bar that holds the door open. I thought you were referring to the wedges on the door jamb side that align the convertible doors when closed.

I’m inheriting 9 different 8 3/4” rear ends this weekend in a clean out of a friends Mopar stuff. I’m in Michigan also, near Ann Arbor. I don’t want to walk in Sinisters offer tho, so follow through with him. You can message me if that doesn’t work out.

I would like to officially welcome you to the site, and say…that is one super Cool car. You really found yourself a gem there, I hope the big cars will open their hearts and let that beauty in the garage!

You’re good with me, Dan. I don’t have anybody on ignore, and don’t really even know how to do that. We’re all a little quirky in this world, so don’t sweat it too much!

It is worthy of a sale. I would buy it if I was anywhere near you, but I’m in Michigan. I saved my original H pipe setup from my Roadrunner, not sure why, but I just couldn’t let it go!

You’re in my prayers bud, hoping for The best outcome possible.
