    How did you become a Mopar A-body Enthusiast?

    Bought my '67 Barracuda in 1974 at a Georgia Ford dealership for $600. Needed a daily driver. 273, 2bbl, 4-speed. Car came from New Mexico, sand had frosted the windshield and stripped paint from the front end. Over time, put in a JC Penny lifetime battery (best money I ever spent)...

    hillbilly fix its.

    When I got a new clutch installed, the stock clutch rod was too short for my comfort, so I made a new one out of threaded rod stock. Bent one end around a bolt for the right ID, then used a bench grinder to reduce the width so a the mounting nut had enough threads to hold the rod in place...

    Lost Title Question

    Ohio? Good luck! In Ohio, you can't sell a car without a title. You can't even have a car towed away for salvage without a title. I've been trying for over a year to get title to a car parked in my late uncle's garage by one of his former tenants, who died before she gave him the title...

    '67 Barracuda Service Bulletin 67-25-6

    Going through my old files and I found a copy of this service bulletin and scanned it. When the '67 Plymouth service manual (PN 81-570-7450) was printed, it included no information specific to the Barracuda. This service bulletin has the Barracuda specific service info, such as servicing the...

    66 273 engine roller rocker

    Looks like it has the automatic transmission- right? Where in Indiana are you? Nice little V8- I've run my '67 since 1974. Back in the day of 55 mph speed limits, I got 26 mpg on a long road trip.

    storing your beloved mopar

    Interesting you mention tires. I replaced the tires this past week. The ones I took off were 22 years old and still free of dry rot or cracks, but I was starting to get nervous about them... :yawinkle:

    storing your beloved mopar

    I have limited experience with this topic, but here it is. Car is stored November to April. Before storing the car each fall, change the oil, fill the fuel tank, fully inflate the tires. Every other year, change the coolant. Car is stored in an unheated garage dedicated to winter storage...

    hillbilly fix its.

    Last time I had a clutch replaced, I found the stock clutch push rod was a bit too short. So, I got a piece of threaded rod stock the same diameter, bent a loop in one end, ground that loop to the same shape as the original rod, cut off the rod at a useful length and installed it. 20 years...
