I saw an engine on a 66barracuda formula S at the Indy Mecum auction last week. It had 2 hard plastic trays that sat on top of the drivers manifold that protected the spark plug boots from heat. Has anyone else seen these or know where to source them? I've never seen them before. I should have...
Now that your going I have a question for you or anyone who reads this. I'm having a lot of problems finding a 8.75 rear that fits my 66barracuda if you or any body else has any leads on one I would like to hear where I can buy one. I will rebuild it so I don't need a new one just one that will...
My 66Barracuda is being redone and I am working on the instrument cluster. Roger Kizer (@RogerK ) mentioned in one of his YT videos about melting the plastic pins when disassembling the plastic cluster for repairs adding a little new plastic when you were reassembling them. I had rust between...
Just wanted to introduce myself, I am a car nut, and have several classics including a 66Barracuda. I enjoy reading your posts, and look forward to getting and giving advice whenever needed.
Thanks for letting me join!
How do you like the 391 gears? I was thinking of putting them in my 66barracuda. I have a dyna rear I'm putting in it. I built a 360 magnum motor for it pushing 470 hp. It was a tight fit. Had to go serpentine belt change and a different ps pump.
245 50 16 in the rear. I have disc brakes in the rear and I believe I have Moser axles that are .125" longer so effectively my back space is 4.875" when compared to stock.
I found a wheel that got me as close to the leaf spring as possible and clearanced the tire with a fender roller and a...
66 Coronet 440 318/727 83/4 sure grip original except for repaint in 80’s/90’s runs and drives good very solid southern car not a show car
Looking for 67-69 Dart or Barracuda also consider 70-73 Dart/Scamp
Thanks
Do you recall what model TTI did you put in your 66 b cuda? Short or long?
Thanks I'm looking for the same with an easy install. I was thinking this short, but they claim they for 67 and up.
Thanks
Procar doesn’t make seat brackets for the 65 Dart, but they do for the 65 Barracuda. Will these work for me? Anyone installed procar seats in your 63-66 Early A?
Installing the console back into my 66Barracuda, I broke the automatic shifter pawl. This is the wire inside the shifter that is depressed to change gears. See pictures
Is that a replaceable part? How hard is it to replace?
Looking around, I have not found that part for sale.
Help and...
I'm getting back to the Cuda project and need to find a solution for full floor pan replacement in my 66. I will be running a 360/727. I may have enough original floor sections to mostly piece together a "stock" floor. But will a 67 A body floor weld in? Will a B body or C body or E body floor...
I know you asked for 14” but for those with a larger tires, I use a 15” tires on my 66’ Barracuda. I found a VW tire fits on a really narrow rim and stays below the trunk floor. My tires are 24.5” diameter.
LH and RH doors, I believe from a 1965 Barracuda. Doors are complete with glass and regulators (which work). Good original doors, straight and not dented or repaired. There is some rust in the lower lip corners. Welding/repair will be needed. However, good solid door to use for a restoration...
I have some "stuff" for 64-66 valiant and 66Barracuda. Think I might have a radio, but it probably doesn't work. If you don't find anything better, send me a PM and I will go digging around.
Spring has arrived and soon it will be time to get my 66Barracuda out and about. There are some things I know need work before I can be confident in driving around to shows, meets etc. The things I know I need is front end work and a leaky auto transmission. There are some garages around that...
I'm looking for a guy from NY that was selling parts for a 66Barracuda in January I just saw the post yesterday and was hoping he may still have some of the stuff.
I just join the group and now can not find the post I think the name was something then restore or restorations can't remember any...
You are better getting the casting numbers off the tail housing and bell housing. Check out the numbers on the Brewers Performance site. I'm thinking 66 or 67 Dart, Valiant or Barracuda.
Sold 53.5k. Bringatrailer has a unique bidding system that makes selling a car on eBay pretty stupid. You can't swoop in and take a car at the last second on bringatrailer. If a bid is made in the last two minutes, the auction is extended another minute, and this keeps going until people...
outers are sill plates for the early Gen cars the inners are carpet hold down trim or inner scuff plate molding. I could care less what others call them since they aren't correct for the early applications later applications
incorporated the inner hold down and the outer sill plate into one...
The factory floor shifter was designed to use both cables - one for Park one for everything else and won’t function with a 66-newer transmission.
Imperial Services (no longer in business) used to offer a conversion to use the later transmission with the stock floor shifter.
Looks like a homemade sail panel- '67-'69 notch back Barracuda?
Early A forum is '66 and earlier- ya threw me for a loop there. Thought you may be talking an early wagon.
Has the Dart dash pad too. interesting conversion. I'm doing it to my '66 Valiant Conv. I always thought the '66Barracuda dash was one of the nicest ones they made.
Dragging up and older thread so as not to start a new one….I need to patch the inner fenders on my 66Barracuda. I have had a tough time so far finding decent rust free inner fenders in my neck of the woods for an early A body. I am very capable of doing a completely metal finished patch. My...
I have a NEW inner front left side splash shield that I ordered by mistake (my Barracuda is a ‘66). It cost around $150 from Classic.
I’ll never use it. I’d like to get $100 from someone who could. If I must take less, I probably will….but hey! It’s almost Christmas.
I’m in Northern...
