    [SOLD] 69 Formula S Barracuda Fastback - 383 - Factory BH29H car

    We’ve owned this car for nearly 6 years (time flies). It’s my wife’s car and she says it’s time to sell. Located in Vista CA, near San Diego. Asking $35K OBO I’ve owned 9 A body Barracudas over the past 40 years, though with an admitted 30+ year gap, so we had a clear vision regarding what we...

    Proper A/C pie plate for 69 'Cuda 383 Formula S?

    Not sure if this is the right forum, but fuel systems didn't feel right either. We have a mostly original 383 S. The pie plate is as shown below 383 Four Barrel I recently saw an issue of Graveyard Cars where they worked their magic on a similar 383 Cuda, but that pie plate said Super...

    69 bcuda headlight bezel screws

    The answer is......................... 8-32 phillips head machine screws. the smaller the head, the easier it is to align the fastener with the "j nut". the short one is ~ 1.5" the long one is ~ 2.25" YMMV depending on part alignment.

    Restoring a grill? repairs and paint?

    old thread but i just did this. I "splinted" with strips of thin metal, then JB welded as required. Don't forget to sand down the excess.

    Black out paint behind headlight grill? - 69 Barracuda Formula S

    and that's the reason I didn't stress about getting a perfect pattern, still likely did too through a job as compared with factory.

    Power Steering box turns hard left when steering wheel released - yikes!

    Sorry. I don't have much to offer. We bought the car in ~ 2016 from a guy who was the master of half-a$$ed repairs, but don't get me started.............. maybe I'll post what I found on one area of the car in the thread I started a while back about refurbishing grills / grilles. When we took...

    Power Steering box turns hard left when steering wheel released - yikes!

    You have a sharp eye. I installed the "wrong" fitting because I had the wrong replacement easily at hand. I now have the correct fitting, and will re-install. Be well.

    NICE Green. What color is the interior? White would look good with the white stripe

    Black out paint behind headlight grill? - 69 Barracuda Formula S

    I know some MOPARS had black out paint near the radiator core support so that you didn't see body color through the grills. True for 69 Barracuda Formula S? If yes, please post a photo or paint instruction for what areas should be black? Thank you Craig

    Want to confirm grille finish - 69 Cuda Formula S

    Our car has one black grille and one silvery / argent grille. I may improve and refinish the big plastic surrounds in a flat black. Should the "egg crate" grilles also be black? grill or grille?? Thank you Craig 69 Barracuda Grille

    Master cylinder question? What's it fit?

    it takes two to have that match, think about that. PS, I used to fly in the back seat of F4-Ns out of el toro.

    OEM for master cylinders???, 69 BB Cuda - looking for replacement gasket

    The master cylinder in the Cuda works well, but the gasket allows fluid to leak and made my freshly re-painted MC look pretty bad in less than 2 years. The gasket seems to fit well and the rubber is "soft / pliable", but I'm going to try and find a replacement gasket. Some photo's of the...

    Hi. While sorting out an oil gauge issue, we took the time to "'refinish" the dash surround. sanded the "chrome" areas replaced the woodgrain with new aftermarket sprayed new Duplicolor chrome paint It looks much better than before. Also painted the gauge needles neon orange, tach needle came...

    69 Cuda factory tachometer wiring (photo of rear connections)

    Hmm found this photo and commentary in another thread. Looks like I've wired mine correctly, I suspect i need to take things apart again and check the needle. sigh "The Spade terminal on the back of the tach goes to the negative side of the coil (signal) gray wire. The longer stud goes to 12v...

    69 Cuda factory tachometer wiring (photo of rear connections)

    99% sure it is not a ground issue. Tach is probably grounded through instrument panel chassis and I ran an additional ground wire during reinstall, chassis to ground. cheers

    69 Cuda factory tachometer wiring (photo of rear connections)

    During a dash bezel refresh, I ended up knocking the tach needle off. I "think" I reinserted correctly, but now the tach doesn't work. Really hoping it is because I flailed on wiring connections, not tach needle issue. anyone have an image of where the two wires go to the posts on the tach? it...
