    1969 Barracuda 340 Formula S Restoration

    Thanks! Nice detail pics. I have my outside handles and locks figured out. Your pics will help a lot with the inside door handle linkage orientation! I have the service manual but those illustrations are usually tough to follow at best...

    Restomod Steering Column

    Ididit tilt column modified for EPAS (Electric Power Assisted Steering) for our 69 Barracuda 6.1 G3 Hemi Sent my Ididit column back to Ididit to make the modifications for me. I cannibalized my original column to get the measurements. Folks at Ididit were very easy to work with. Made the mods I...

    Any fabo members up in Seattle or near by ?

    Somewhere on the northeast side of Moses Lake, maybe as far north as Lake Roosevelt. Not too close to town... but not too far either... ;-) Will look for a rambler on some property with a view and a shop... Or at least have room for a shop. I think a couple acres will do.

    Any fabo members up in Seattle or near by ?

    Snohomish WA now but plans for Eastern WA in the not too distant future. Just waiting till the kid graduates this summer, then we will be heading East. There's a 40'x60' (Minimum) shop and some property in our future.

    Life's Good! This is the only progress for a while... ;-) Polished and waxed our 5th wheel... front, back and one side. One side to go. Polished up the windows too. Had some good winds here last Sunday. Looking out the window of our 5th/W. Had some gusts up to 40+ MPH recorded on our...

    Borgeson Power Steering Thoughts....

    Wish I had some new news but we got a new puppy! Between the new puppy (I am in Full time training mode), some home improvement projects and summer camping season (RV camping) I haven't really touched the car in months... "¯\_(ツ)_/¯" Plus our RV season is extended through the end of October...

    Dash Swap

    Be careful when you drill the original rivets out. Safest to do it from the back side so you don't damage the VIN Tag.

    Who's running the same size tires front and rear

    Staggered width but same or close enough to the same height/diameter to use one spare for the front or rear. 245/45-17x8 (25.68") front 275/40-17x9 (25.66) rear on my 'Cuda Running the same 275/40-17 on the rear of the 69 Barracuda and the fronts will be something very close to the same...

    Hard to tell but there are 3 different blacks... Suede Black Dash Frame, Sem Ultra Trim Satin Black on the bezel where it was originally chrome, and Krylon Fusion, textured satin black on the face where it used to be silver. 3 slightly different shades of black, different textures and different...

    6.1 Hemi 69 Barracuda Fastback Father Son Project

    Eliminated the Cig Lighter hole and trimmed the DMT Walnut Overlay to fit with the newly made Dash Vent Holes. Still not the final paint, just primer... I'm going to add in a little silver pinstripe above the cluster to tie the left and right side overlays. The black gap created by the cluster...

    6.1 Hemi 69 Barracuda Fastback Father Son Project

    So, a little more Dash progress. Had to repair the radio cutout, a previous owner had enlarged the center hole a bit but not in a way that worked with my plans. So I repaired that first then cut out an opening for the Pioneer MVH-S720BHS single Din Mech-less (No optical drive) unit. When I was...

    Monroe Swap Meet 2024 - venders or participants?

    Sold all of them... had a pretty good sales total for the weekend despite not having the best weather or turnout. A success nonetheless. Also was contacted by a kid I gave my number to, that is going to buy my 6.1 intake manifold.

    2017-18 Challenger console modified to fit Classic Auto Air Controls. Had considered upholstery for the new finish but concerned that the compound curves would require some serious stretching and no way to hold the edges from pulling back if I trimmed it inside the trim ring and I didn't want to...

    It does. The one with the paddles will be staying though regardless... Don't think it will be an issue.

    Ididit Tilt Steering column with incorporated EPAS Performance Electric Power Steering motor and PCS paddle shifters test fit together with the new gauge cluster. Line of sight seems pretty good. It's hard to tell exactly where the seat will be without the gas and brake peddles installed. But I...

    Usually, I will opt for machine screws but I had these handy. Considered finding and swapping but don't think it's really necessary. Grinding the points off is a good call.

    Air cleaner

    I switch between my factory 70 340 air cleaner and this one. I am certain this one flows more. But I like them both a lot so I change them back and forth. Maybe if I chromed this one, it would be even faster. "¯\_(ツ)_/¯" Just test fitting it here in this picture. I use plumber's putty to check...

    6.1 Hemi 69 Barracuda Fastback Father Son Project

    Well, so here the cluster is just held in with some tape. Was thinking about how to fasten the 2 together. Had several thoughts about brackets, bending metal, nuts and screws, etc. Then I kind of had an epiphany of sorts... Really very simple and using hardware I already had. These were all I...
