Sorry guys, I was assuming a Manual trans car.

Mine is a Hurst shifter with 3/8 - 24 thread that the shifter knob threads on. I believe this is the factory shifter that came with the car, 65 Barracuda.

Thanks Mike, yup I have a working horn and a shift knob. Mostly I use the cup holders but the storage is a nice touch.

It has Velcro that sticks to the carpet. But it does fit real tight in between the seats so it doesn't move around at all.

Yup, and it's fits perfectly. I had to loosen the set bolts off a bit then Jam the console in but it fits. And they have a few different build options. Mine came from classic consolers but it is the same.

My coffee Mug, I'm drinking way to much coffee now that it changes to the picture of my car when the mug is warm!

Welcome to FABO. I'd love to see some pictures of your 63 Dart, sounds like a fun ride!

Welcome to FABO. There is a whole forum on here dedicated to the early A body cars. You have a great looking car!

Welcome to FABO, there is a whole forum dedicated to the early A cars on here. Post away! Looks like you have a great looking project!

I've owned 3 early Barracudas and have never seen a plastic cover over the rear vents. It's always been body color. I've had a 64 and 2 65 cars in the past and none of them had that plastic cover. Don't know the production date of the 64 so I can't help in that way.

When I did mine I had fitment problem as the car had to thick of motor mounts. The previous owner had installed the wrong motor mounts when he swapped the 340 in the car. He ended up putting the old 273 exhaust manifolds back on. Once I had purchased the car I tried to put the Doug's in (D450)...

That’s what I’m running behind a 360 magnum crate motor with 3:23’s. I believe the 273 4barrel motors received 8 3/4 diffs under warranty if they blew up the 7 1/4.

Wow what a fantastic find, and that interior looks awesome. Keep us posted on how it goes.

Brewer's performance has the torque shaft that will work, that is what I am running with the 10.5 bell. For the 10.5 bell in an early A you need to flatten the firewall to floor pan seam. After that no clearance issues. The linkage is real tight fit if you run headers. I'm running TTI and it's...

Mr. Beans ride, team Starfish.

Also to stop the fuel splash back you can install a fuel tank sentry in the filler tube to stop this splash back from happening. I bought mine on Amazon and works great.

My 65 Barracuda did come with the rear courtesy lights in the back and an under dash light as well. Good luck with the rest of the pending stuff.

Wow I love it. I'd drag that home in a moment, especially for $1500. Not sure how long a 7 1/4 will last with a big tired 360 though!

Yes those are the emblems. I bought that fender and was told it was from a Commando car as the guy did have those emblems. But now I'm thinking the fender only had a V8 emblem on it.

While I was marking up my pics DC 340 also posted. Looks like the distance from the head light bucket is different.

This should help you with the Commando V8 emblem I didn't take any measurements for the Barracuda emblem but if no one else comes up with any I'll get some for you.

Wow that sounds like an awesome build, I'll be following.

Didn't Dan pass away about 3 years ago. I remember seeing a tribute to him on facebook. It sure has taken a long time to sell all his great Mopar stuff and shop.

Not sure if you are using your old sail panel backing or not, But that has to go in first and must be trimmed so the metal trim can fit over it. I have a bunch of pictures that I had taken when I did my interior. Sail panel glued in. Now you have to put the metal trim against it to trim away...

Looks like you might be busy with that project. Keep us posted on the tear down and plans for the Dart. I do love watching the early A car projects.

View this thread. Collaborative early a experiment @Treblig put a lot of work into exhaust manifolds for early A cars. Not sure if there is any updates on this.

Great job on the body work. When I did my rear quarters I painted the inside of the quarters with Eastside's rust converter just to give it a coat of protection.

Looking real good, just enough to break up the white.
