    Yes. Thank you. That is what I have found too. Another proof this is a 68 chassis. The people that typically own these super stock cars tend to be into/own Max Wedge and 64/65 Hemi Super Stocks B-bodies. And also Hemi B and E bodies. So they really aren't that familiar with A-body...

    For you 67-up A-body people: Is this a 1967 or 1968 Gas tank pictured ? this picture taken of the Mule car Irwindale test in 1968. Published in Popular Hot Rodding May 1968

    True. But a lot of times is the owners or handlers that give them incorrect info too. The guy selling this car was reached out to share some of the info from the original documents I have. And he never returned the Facebook PM. !!!

    Wow. The article on this car in Mopar Collector's Guide has some major historical errors! Wonder where they got that Mis-information! Car started out as a 1968 340 4-speed Barracuda Formula S. THE fender tag on the mule car even says so. And the original paperwork notes from Bob Tarrozzi...

    No, they list same parts for 67-72 and 73-76 A-bodies. If you want the thicker ones try 72 Dodge Polara

    68 Barracuda Front Suspension Rebuild Kit

    Yes, I missed that. either 9/16 or 11/16 will bolt between to your centerlink and steering arms (lower ball joint). They both have the same ball joint stud taper.

    FRAUD ALERT. Let me give you a warning.

    Yes I'm seeing that one Facebook and various place with a piece of paper. Try to place it so if you cropped the picture, it would crop your part too. Some I see with their name and phone number. Like was said before, that's probably not great idea. Even your screen name over the picture would...

    426 Wedge possible install challenges

    Here's some issues you run into with going to big block and using conversion mounts and adding the fitment issues headers into the mix. 440 sitting crooked?

    What screws are used on 68 Barracuda Headlight and Grille surround trims?

    That might be why the 521 kit comes with the corresponding nuts that might be sheet metal thread?? Although why would a nut be sheet metal thread. All the original 68 screws were 8/32 thread. I found them years ago in stainless, but they don't have that pointed tip. The inner screw heads are...

    Actually it got bigger in 1967 for A-bodies.

    426 Wedge possible install challenges

    A 340 block open market will cost $800 or probably more than a comparable 360 block. So motors you would buy in whatever stage long block, short block, carb to pan will reflect that difference. If you were having the motor built, that $800 extra would pay for the upgrade to a stroker 360 with...

    426 Wedge possible install challenges

    A 360 is more easier on pocketbook. visually and fit-wise identical to a 340. And a little bit more torque for a convertible cruising machine.

    How were the A bodies put together down the assembly line?

    What's the specific damage in the 2nd picture? If you are talking about the welds coming apart from the shock tower to the inner fender. That is common. If it's still welded, the shock hole is not centered in the inner fender hole in somewhat common. It just places the upper shock location...

    Good eye. I caught that too. I have a 1968 Hemi Road Runner negative cable with paint all the way under the battery post end. I've seen noted Mopar restorer Troy Angelly paint them all the way. He's a Mopar Nats judge too I believe. And like A56 says, they where attached to motors when whole...

    Thank you for posting that. That was written by Geoff then put into print by Mopar Muscle magazine I believe. This is precisely why I'm trying to clear this situation up. Unfortunately, that is 100% incorrect information printed in Mopar Muscle magazine that the car was a 1967 383. Either by...

    Noisy strut rod?

    Still wrapping my head around the K-member having poly bushings and then running a Heim joint. Seems redundant. That's two joints. A tighter thing being held in by a lest tighter thing. Are you sure those two pucks clamping the bracket to the K-frame are not aluminum. Most kits are like that.

    BTW a 392 Hemi Challenger's weighs ~4300 lbs. My Barracuda weighs 3209 lbs on computer scales.

    340 Stroker Rotating Assembly

    I bought a Scat cast rotating 4" assy from Brian at IMM 13 years ago. A pre-balanced one even. Run a 236/242 solid with mild port heads. Even with a single plane intake the power and torque is plenty for autocross. On road course a SRT 392 Challenger was behind me along the big straight at...

    That will tell you that the Mule/Prototype body matches the fender tag. I assume it does. All the options that are shown on the Mule/Prototype show on the car today. No guessing there. The guessing is trying to connect the Mule/Prototype to the Dec 1967 Sports Car Graphic Magazine test car. We...

    That’s included with deluxe interior. At least in 1968 it is. I wouldn’t say that’s quite as rare as the defogger. But all those options in the Prototype Mule fender tag is an odd combination. Manual disk, 4spd, 3.91 gear But loaded with luxury options ! Prototype/ Mule fender tag decoded:

    I found that old FABO on the Pilot 67 Valiant Signet. It has an early SPD of 807 and SO number 30019. Car was used in parts book I believe. I've learned SO number meaning very year for year. So what might mean something in 1968 does not apply to other years typically.
