    I Received my Galen Govier decoding of my fender tag and IBM card - 65 Formula S

    They did return my check with the copy of the ID Card. My "Dealer" code is Chrysler Corporation - New York Zone. Most have interpreted that as possibly some sort of internal use or executive vehicle. "If the stripe was dealer applied why is it in the build sheet?" My understanding is that a lot...

    I Received my Galen Govier decoding of my fender tag and IBM card - 65 Formula S

    I had to chop part of it off in order to blow it up so the forum would accept. You should be able to read this one.

    I Received my Galen Govier decoding of my fender tag and IBM card - 65 Formula S

    I posted previously that I had received a copy of the IBM build card on my car from Chrysler Historical. I sent it and copies of my fender tag to Galen Govier for decoding. Several folks here on the board were quite helpful in decoding almost all of the fender tag but I wanted more info. Here's...

    [FOR SALE] 14” steel SBP with caps and tires

    Sorry for trying to be helpful. The pictures were for examples. Yes, you can measure with the tires on if you're talented in making a measuring caliper. No, they are not all marked outside by the valve stem

    What's the Original Carter Fuel Pump # on a Commando 273?

    I'm pretty sure the big block engines had the short arm so this is probably a cobbled together rebuilt pump since it has the correct small block long arm. Thanks for your help.

    What's the Original Carter Fuel Pump # on a Commando 273?

    What's the original Carter fuel pump number on a 1965 barracuda Formula S commando 273. March 1965 build if it makes a difference. I pulled a 3672S off of it and was wondering if it's the original. Thanks, Jimmy

    Waldron Exhaust Concerns / Situation on Formula S

    I also did not like the way the stainless tip was "square" at the side closest to the resonator (not the outlet end) instead of angled like an original which could be seen by anyone. The NOS one I purchased is the one in the Ebay listing in your second link.

    Waldron Exhaust Concerns / Situation on Formula S

    I purchased a Waldrons Complete Exhaust System for my 65 Barracuda Formula S project. After waiting a couple of months it arrives. I eagerly open the box. The pipes and muffler parts of the system look great from a quality standpoint. The resonator looks very sub par for quality including the...

    Look what the UPS driver delivered today - Hint: Goodyear Blue Streak

    The blue stripe remains blue and the white letters remain the same. No real variety of sizes reproduced as this was the only size OEM on the Formula S. There is a similar 775/15 reproduced as it was OE on some Shelby's. I ordered them through Summit as I had picked up a 10% off voucher at the...

    small bolt pattern steel wheels

    I don't know if that is how wheel manufacturers measure backspacing or not. I laid a board across the edge of the wheel (no tire installed) and put the ruler down to the backside of the mounting surface. As most everyone knows a 5.5 wheel will actually measure approximately 6.5 outside to...
