I recently noticed a drip of fuel from what looks like plug at the bottom front of the float bowl of my AVS. I've heard Jamie from Dead Dodge Garage mention such a leak, but he never really talked about it in any of the videos that I've seen. This would explain the float bowl being empty sooner...

I don't know a lot about automatics in our cars. Mostly because all my years owning an a body nothing ever went wrong with my transmissions. I have bought a 67 Barracuda with a 383 and a 727. It shifts fine manually, but in drive it shifts very early and very harsh, like maybe a lot of overlap...

Does anyone know if there is a replacement stainless piece available that join the two curved mylar lock strips at the bottom of the fastback glass? My ill fitting piece finally decided not to hold on any longer. Thanks

Does anyone know what sheen the paint was on the hard back bucket seats in 67? Was it a satin, semi gloss, or gloss. I also have the same question for the interior doors and trim around the back window for my 67 Barracuda. Mine is black, but someone has painted the stuff in the past and I can't...

Does anyone have a lower trunk trim piece in good shape they would part with?

I recently had a new end welded on my 8-3/4 at Moser. I had them press the new bearings on at the same time (not green bearings). i had noticed there seemed to be a ready sleeve where the seal rides. Apparently it had to be removed to press the bearings on. my question is - does anyone know what...

I am trying to adjust my rear axle bearings in an 8-3/4. I find that i get an up and down play before I get any end play. Any help here would be appreciated.

I finally decided to tackle my exhaust leak on my 67 383 Barracuda. Found the manifold to be pretty warped. I tried a few local automotive machine shops and haven't found one that'll surface it. I was wondering if there's anyone out there that knows of a shop in Chicagoland that can do it. Or is...

Putting tires on my 67 Barracuda and I noticed up and down play on the passenger axle. The bearing feels fine and of course I can't do a visual without removing it, so I put new seals in and tried adjusting. In order to adjust any up and down slop out I don't get any end play. Is this a telling...

I know this is a big shot in the dark... but, I'm looking for the far left panel of wood grain for a 67 barracuda rally dash. The rest of mine is good and the new stuff I bought doesn't match the door wood grain.

I have an oil pressure gauge that when I ground the sending unit wire it makes the gauge head up towards the top quickly, but when hooked up to the sending unit it barely registers. I bought a new sending unit and it does the same. Is it possible that I got a bad sending unit or is there...

What is the main issue with putting a 60 series tire on a 5.5" ralley wheel? I am wondering if it would be totally wrong to use the 245 60's I have on a set of ralleys. would it be dangerous? I had 60's on stock ralley wheels back about 25 years ago with no apparent problems.

I am wondering whether I need to replace my brake lines. The car was sitting for 15 years and seldom used. The front brake reservoir was dry when I checked it, the rear was full but the fluid was very dirty. I have decided to get rebuilt calipers and replace the rear wheel cylinders as well as...

I am putting together the front suspension with all new parts. I just tightened up the idler arm from PST and it was basically locked. I took it off and checked it with the old one and it is the same, so I put it back on and hit it with a rubber mallet and it did break loose some. I can move it...

I need some direction on whether or not to rebuild my manual steering gear. It's a 67 Barracuda 383. The steering box is leaking through the input shaft. I am in the process of rebuilding the suspension. While doing that I found that one of the noises I had while turning was the idler arm and...

I got most of my Moog parts from Rock today only to discover that I didn't get the offset bushings I thought I ordered. My question is - how important is it to use them instead of stock type bushings?

If what I've been reading is true - the early a bodies need a smaller ball joint socket than the 1 59/64" socket. Since Advance auto here has a 1 59/64" socket they will lend out and the sizes are relatively close. I am wondering if anyone out there has successfully used this socket to get the...

I was wondering if you could substitute the offset upper bushings in the super front end kit for a 67 Barracuda formula s with 4 piston discs? If so would there be a price difference. I also can't find an early a body ball joint socket on your site. How much do those run? Thanks

I was wondering what colors are used on the rally dash. I got mine re-chromed and I'm detailing the rest. Is the black a semi-gloss? Does the silver (argent) have any flake in it or is just a dull aluminum. Should I just go to the paint store and see what they list for the mopar interior silver...

I was wondering - if your driving your A-body at the speed of light and you turn on the headlights - will they come on?

I was wondering if there is a way to bench test a gas gauge from a 67 barracuda? It has the voltage limiter inside. I have a new solid state limiter, but would still like to test the gauge before installing. Thanks

Hey a-body owners - I have a strange problem that is probably just a wrong part installed on my car. My drivers side wiper hits the upper windshield gasket while the passenger side clears it easily. Both arms are 15" Anco arms which is what the chart says to replace them with when I go to the...

Hey out there. I have seen 67 barracudas with both light argent and dark argent in the relief of the center trunk trim - which is correct. I am thinking of painting the relief in the hood inserts dark argent since the light kind of looks like it's trying to cover bad chrome - any thoughts on that?

What does anyone think about whether changing from the zipper strip weather strip to stainless trim type on a 67 barracuda hurt the originality of the car.

Hi, I have read numerous articles about vin and fender tags. How can you tell if the vin and fender tag are legitimate? The car in question is a 67 Baracuda Formula S with a 383. The vin and fender tag go together and the last 5 numbers on the radiator support match the last 5 on the fender tag...
