    Trick to removing quarter window felt?

    I need to remove my quarter window trim and in order to do so, the felt needs to come out so I can access the screws. Is there a trick to this? I'm trying to keep from bending anything and breaking (any more) tabs, but it seems counter intuitive. Looks easy to pop in, but kinda a pain to get out.

    Quarter window weep holes?

    Found them. Just didn't know what I was looking for. They are in the pinch weld under the quarter panel. I couldn't see light coming through from the outside to the inside so I did what any sane person would do and dumped a gallon of water in there from the cabin. Created a muddy mess and I...

    Speedometer not working on 64 Barracuda.

    While driving around, it spins and I can't force it to stop with my fingers, so I expect the cable and transmission are fine. All the online pictures I've found of the cables don't show ends so I can't confirm what it should look like.

    Torsion Bar Splash Shields

    I have them, but not sure where they are supposed to go on my 64 Barracuda. Does anybody have any reference pics? https://www.detroitmuscletechnologies.com/mopar-63-66-a-body-and-62-65-b-body-frame-torsion-bar-splash-shields/

    Speedometer not working on 64 Barracuda.

    Hmm. Maybe the cable is the wrong type. My dad has 66 Mustang he's restoring and we pulled the cable out and tried it on his speedo since he had it removed from the cluster and it slipped right in and worked a peach. What I'm running into is they've changed out what I presume was a standard...

    Speedometer not working on 64 Barracuda.

    The cable end is square, but it's like twisted. I'm not sure if that's how its designed or if it's damaged. The cable isn't broken as I can pull it all the way through the sheathing from the transmission and that end is square metal. Cable looks good to me.

    Faulty starter solenoid killing car?

    Yup. Doing that today. Also correcting some other cabling they did for the reverse lights to the transmission they have sandwiched between the firewall and a metal plate. Pulled the cables, drilling a hole in the plate and installing a grommet. I'll use the same hole for the neutral safety...

    Quarter window weep holes?

    Just a bump. If drilling is required, just don't want to start drilling blindly.

    Speedometer not working on 64 Barracuda.

    Nobody has any insight if this has been worn or if I just don't have the right kind of cable? If it's worn, can that part be replaced or is it a replacement speedo I'm looking at?

    Damaged ignition switch?

    What is the risk? I mean, they are cheap enough, I'm just not sure what risk you are referring to. Theft?

    Damaged ignition switch?

    My cylinder assembly freely pulls out of the ignition switch regardless of what position it's in. The pin seems fine on the cylinder, but it looks like the switch is damaged where the pin is supposed to seat.

    fuel filler problems

    I've got more of a problem with expansion. Fill up the car and next afternoon in the heat of the day, there's fuel running out the vent tube.

    Faulty starter solenoid killing car?

    Replaced the yellow wire. I guess we'll see if it's a long term fix. I am concerned now though. I can't seem to find any fusible links. I don't know if that's because the previous owner may have removed them during the engine swap or maybe I just don't know what I'm looking at. I'm not...

    Faulty starter solenoid killing car?

    Pulled the cable connectors at both ends and tested with an ohmmeter. I think the cable is broken internally under the insulation. Both crimps look good, but when I flex the cable back and forth I get intermittent continuity. Looks like I'll be replacing that cable between the relay and...

    Quarter window weep holes?

    I found there is a pinhole at the back end of my drip rail that allows water to leak into my quarter panel behind the quarter glass on my 64 Barracuda. It leaks like crazy, but it got me thinking, where are the weep holes supposed to be for the quarter windows? My panels were repaired before I...

    MANUAL STEERING FOR DAILY DRIVER

    Mine is 3 turns from center to lock, one way. So I guess that would be six turns from lock to lock?

    Faulty starter solenoid killing car?

    I was checking voltage at the fuses under the dash that are always hot. I was not aware there was a fusible link on the relay. I'll check that out tomorrow. I cleaned the battery terminals and pulled the bulkhead connector contacts. Used sand paper and electronics cleaner in the bulkhead...

    Faulty starter solenoid killing car?

    I guess I should correct myself, it's the starter relay. The battery is brand new. I'll clean the connections and the grounds and see if it makes a difference. Not sure why reseating the yellow cable would fix everything though.

    Faulty starter solenoid killing car?

    I drove to school to pick up my daughter and turned off the car. Daughter hopped in and I turned the key. Started for literally a second and then nada, like dead. No lights, no nothing. I got my daughter taken care of and started troubleshooting in the school parking lot. Last thing I did...

    Speedometer not working on 64 Barracuda.

    The speedo never worked in this car when I bought it. I've finally starting messing with it and I don't know if it's bored out or if the cable just isn't the right one. I thought it should be square, but this one looks circular.

    MANUAL STEERING FOR DAILY DRIVER

    How do you determine what the ratio is? Is it printed on the box? Mine takes so many turns I was thinking about adding a suicide ball to the steering wheel.

    Help identifying rubber bumper locations?

    On my car the original door bumper are symmetrical with no ridges. I haven't installed the replacements yet. The deck lid bumpers were incorrect on my kit so he sent me the correct flat ones. They have ridges that face towards the inside of the car, but I'm not sure how the ones you have...

    64 Valiant/Barracuda Splash Shield Gasket Installation?

    I posted a pic of my splash shields, both sides for the door jamb and the headlight. I know where they go, there's just no installation instructions. As I said, I'm starting from scratch with no reference. I'm still needing to determine the proper bolt side to install the splash shields. But...

    64 Valiant/Barracuda Splash Shield Gasket Installation?

    Right, I'm just not sure which way they go. I presume they are not "sandwiched" between the fender and the shield, but go on the inside towards the tire to seal the seams. The only thing I'm having an issue with is determining which way the gasket goes on the headlight shield. I'm not sure if...

    64 Valiant/Barracuda Splash Shield Gasket Installation?

    Our car didn't come with any splash shields, so I bought those from helpful folks here on the forum. I bought the gasket set from Detroit Muscle, but I'm not sure how they install. I mean, I do, it's kinda obvious, but kinda not. Since I have no reference it's hard to determine. I presume I...
