Good tires,most of the bad exterior metal replaced except rear quarters,Interior is Blue Vinyl,cloth is bad,vinyl is good. Brand new radiator. Engine runs beautifully. This was...

Hi! I'm looking for a good,clean,non-cracked set of taillight lenses and frames with good chrome. I know this is a tall order but I'm hopeful! Thanks! Dan

I'm in dire need of a good radiator! I have a 65 Super Six,Automatic and my rad is junk,therefore,I can't drive! The original was the small (18 in.) with trans cooler,but I would like to find the larger(23in?) Does anyone have a good,non leaky one they can let go of for a reasonable price...

So. New Alternator and fresh battery. Still not getting up the the halfway mark on the Alt gauge,power drops when I turn on lights or put engine under load. Where to look now? I have to figure this thing out now! Ideas? This is my only vehicle and I have to get to work today. This sucks.

Hey there folks. Trouble again! I have a 73 Valiant and just put in a very low mileage 65 Super Six engine and tranny (auto).Everything seemed fine for the first few days,but I went away for a long weekend and came back to find it with a dead battery. I charged the battery and it started,drove...

Hey guys. has anyone ever swapped out a later 904A with lever for an earlier model with the cable control? If so,how did you adapt the shift linkage to work properly? I guess I should mention they are both column shif automatic.Thanks,Dan

Hey folks,I'm in a bit of a bind! I need a new 904 for my 73 Valiant,/6 Auto. Anyone around Bloomington/S. Indiana have one they want unload cheap? Thanks,Dan

It's finally here after much waiting and many setbacks. My new 1965 Valiant 2-door with a 225 Super Six! I can't wait to start working on it! The 73 needs a bit more body work,paint and a few tweaks,then I can get to work on this one.

I have a 73 Valiant with the stock 225 Slant. Just recently,when I shut down,it tends to run on a bit. What's causing this? It's never done it before?

I have a 73 Valiant 4 door that I really need to get back on the road.Does anyone know if there is a source for the rear spring perch boxes for A-bodies? This is the box that the rear leaf spring hanger bolts on, maybe I have the name wrong,but mine is rotten and the frame rail replacements...

Can anyone draw me a simple diagram of what this should look like? I did the ammeter bypass a while back and someone else installed the elec. ignition. Now there are dead ended wires all over and I'm not sure if this was just sloppiness on the part of the other guy,or if there is something else...

Hey guys, I hate to have to ask this here,but I figure it's worth a shot.I need a car trailered from Tenn. just west and north of Nashville up to S. Indiana. I bought this car on ebay at the beginning of the summer and cannot pick it up myself. I am on an extremely tight budget and every time I...

Also not mine,but I think this is the very solid roller I looked at in the spring. http://bloomington.craigslist.org/cto/895970716.html

So,I posted here before,under the heading "600 cfm holley on 273". Long rant,sorry if I bored you guys with the whole long stupid story. But I still need to know,What do I need to do to make this work? Smaller jets? Different adapter? The carb is matched to the intake but I need to know what...

Not mine. It has a 400 in it,automatic trans,not a bad body,larger rearend,not sure what size. The guy doesn't want to keep it and says he will strip it and crush it. I know,same old song and dance,but this looks like a good car for the money,I just don't have it my self.Car is in Evansville,IN...

Susanne's Barracuda has the 273,auto,and she has put on the aluminum Wieand intake and a 4bbl Holley and now her mechanic says the 600 will not work. I bought the carb and intake set-up from someone here who was also running it on a 273,65 Barracuda S. what do I need to do to make this work? Can...

Not mine unfortunately.... http://bloomington.craigslist.org/cto/824593983.html

Not my car,just saw it online and thought the last part was very funny! http://yakima.en.craigslist.org/cto/803067469.html

I just bought a really nice looking 65 Valiant 2 door! It doesn't have an engine in it yet,but it comes with a 77 Super Six! Can't wait to get it here and get to work!

I have found a very gently used 413 that is currently in a 1970 Dodge RV. Could this engine be converted and used for good street car? What are the differences between an RV version and the automobile version? Thanks,Dan

Ok guys,time for a really dumb question. I completely rewired the 64 Val/Barracuda and almost everything worked fine,including the amp gauge bypass operation,which also seemed to go just fine.Now,the car doesn't want to start,apparently,the points and ballast resistor are shot. Susanne's...

Hi folks, I have a Carter BBD,tag # 8145-S,that was installed on the 64 Barracuda,273 auto that I am working on. I took it in for a clean and rebuild and the motor shop guy said that I was missing the vacuum piston spring. Apparently,this spring is not included in any rebuild kit! If anyone...

Does anyone have an exploded view diagram for the Carter BBD 2 bbl carb? Or maybe an old carb of the same design they will sell me cheap? I gave the carb to my guy at the machine shop to clean and rebuild and he says I am missing a spring that doesn't come with any rebuild kit! I believe it is a...

Hey all, I have a 73 Valiant,225/6 Auto on column and need to replace my ignition. I've got the steering wheel stripped down to the point where I removed the snap ring and can get no further.Any help out there? Thanks! Dan

Hey All! I'm in Bloomington Indiana and would like to organize a local meet-up,swap meet,cruise,cookout! Let me know you're out there and let's put something together! Those from the surrounding areas,Ohio,Ky,etc are welcome as well! Dan

Okay,so I've gotten the Barracuda to about 90% finished and it's drivable and looks pretty okay. MOst of the stuff is easily fixed but the one bug that keeps eluding me is that if I try to accelerate much at all while in motion,it bogs down and sometimes,when climbing a long hill,it just dies. I...

:occasion:Merry Christmas! :occasion:Happy Hannukah! :occasion:Happy Kwanzaa! :occasion:Good Yule and Warmest Winterfest Wishes to you all! Hope you all are safe and well and enjoying your good fortune in family and friends! Have a great holiday! Dan And Susanne

Will the solid kickdown linkage from a 318 swap into my 273 set up? I recently bought the Lokar kickdown cable but it doesn't match up. The Lokar seems to require a 4barrel carb to attach a specific bracket to and I have a 2barrel Stromberg that lacks the size or attachment points. Anyone have...

was looking at a pretty beat 75 Dart 4door yesterday. I'm wondering if anyone knows for sure whether the front discs will swap easily onto our 64 barracuda. Tips? Tricks?I can get the car cheap and it should yield some nice parts for you Dart guys. Really nice front fenders,good bumpers and...

Car runs fine in Neutral,Dies as soon as you put it in Reverse. why? I thought I fixed this already!
