Hey I may take some flak but really everything could be taken off and it be a decent ride. No wing,bars and hood scoop I would drive it. The skulls ain't as bad as some of the ''busy'' paint jobs out there. As foir the interior I am interested in what he used for door and deck panels.

I went and checked it out this morning and I didn't see the mounting holes. So I guess I did get a bone stock one. Though I would at least ask so I could locate one if it was missing. I did however get the all white with red interior model. You know that red when 45 years old can't be color...

Does anyone know if the 65' Barracuda came with a soft dash pad or was it all My 65' Barracuda has a metal dash and I have seen where some aftermarket places offer the dash caps. Just curious if this is something mine is missing and I need to replace. You guys have been very helpful these last...

Thank you for all the information. I am sure that when I start this job all of these posts will be perfect help.

This may be in the wrong area and I am sorry if it is. I am looking for an exploded diagram for front wheel hub assemblies on a 1965 Plymouth Barracuda. Can anyone send me this diagram? I will be installing new bearings and races this weekend. Everything from the cotter pin to the back. Any and...

Not sure about the roof rack. I like the look of the car without it. My son's mother had a 64' Dodge Dart 4dr with a slant 6 for her first car. That thing was soo much fun to drive.

Those cars look amazing!!!! I had stock hub-caps on my 65' Barracuda until a member on FABO sold me a sweet set of slotted mags. They are SBP 14'' rims with big n' little tires. As soon as I can learn to post pics I will. Now I have to say that I seen 65BCODAs' car up close one day and that...

Thanks Vic. Im staying positive.

I think it is awesome you found your car in Miss. That is where I went to pick up my 65'. It was just south of Memphis in a town called Ripley. Only things done thus far is almost a complete electrical replace. Car is completely stock. Sad part is,,,,with health issues on the rise may have to...

I have to say i am in the same boat. Tried the autozone one but you can really tell its ''ghetto-engineered''. Guess I am going to have to search ebay.

Yeah he said that at least 5 of them wouldn't spark and that it looked like the electrode was brittle. They looked odd when I installed them but thought it was just me. Yeah he took my 50 and then looked bent because I wouldn't tip him. Marks that place off my list of possible mechanics. I...

Its running, its running!!! After throwing in the towel and finally takking it to a mechanic, it is running. Mechanic found out that I had gotten a bad batch of plugs and the points were incorrectly gapped. The points parts sucks because I had paid a guy 50 bucks to set them for me. I love how...

I would still be interested in seeing photos?

Yeah i heard they canb be very pricey. Mine have the Valient emblem but I continue to look for the fish. Really that is the only piece I need. I am gooing to keep my eye out on Ebay. Thank you though

I dont have the yellow coil. I got a polished super stock coil. Very similiar to the stock one. Now with the trim pieces,,I never got an answer or a final price. Found out through the grapevine that it is very common to get that kind of run around. I appreciate the info on it though. That way I...

Yeah I am getting the whole ''why didnt you just start with the battery'' thing from the wife too. I had a serious brainfart and thought that it should be done. I just didnt realize it was goiong to be such a huge ordeal. Never under estimate the simplicity of things. I will try the rotor...

Okay guys and gals,,,,found a rebuild kit and new floats. I changed all the gaskets and cleaned out the carburetor of alot of trash and gunk. Put in new floats and changed the choke pull off. Installed on the motor with new vac and fuel lines. Car starts but still rough idle. I figure after I...

Okay today starts another day to try and get my fish swimming again. I know ithas to be fuel related. All electrical has been switched over to new. Now to tackle the carb and fuel pump. . This should be an eye opener!! Gotta find either a replacement carburetor or the rebuild kit with floats...

Gauges installed and working. Now the new or rather old issue that is driving me freakin bonkers... Starts okay,still a little slow. I have hardly any idle now and when I put it in gear it either stalls or has no power what so ever. I added a clear glass fuel filter to see if the gas was a...

To install it in the heater hose nipple with a T fitting,,colud I install it in the same heater hose except at the firewall with a T fitting? After this the next step is the Carb. I am beginning to wonder if I should just unbolt it and put a 4bbl on there. They are easy to find and get parts for.

I bought an EZ-out set today so wish me luck. As for the carb,,,I hope to find a rebuild kit and go from there. Now on to something i learned today. This morning I had the great privilege of meeting two of the most informative and nicest people I have meet in a very long time. I got to...

Yeah,,,,been busting *** all weekend to get this fish swimmin again. Then today for some brain-fartted reason the temp sender snapped flush with the intake manifold. Got to love that cheap *** brass **** they are making now a days. Oh what fun it will be to try and get that damn thing out. So...

Can you get that gauge regulator at Napa or other parts store? Knowing my luck prolly have to buy it from the manufacter which no longer has any in stock. I found that out with a carburator today. I have less than a week to get this thing running before Saturday the 5th. Its the 20th anniversary...

No more boats for me,,thank you though. With all that has been going on with the car I have yet to even get the boat out on the water. As for the gauges,, for now I bought the simple three cluster for under the dash. Granted I said i wouldn't do that but gotta do something until I get the others...

Replaced points,,voltage regulator,starter relay and went through every connection three times. I found a bad connection at the relay and that the regulator was toast. Now it starts real easy again. It just has a little bit of a rough idle. The smoke is starting to go away. i think it may have...

Ok,,,I went thru each wire and found 2 that were crossed. Fixed those and even made sure the nut on the condensor wire was tight. Changed the oil and temp sender. Tighted all connections at the starter,battery and altenator. Crossed my fingers got in and turned the key. It fired right up and had...

When I started this mission,,,I did one wire and plug at a time, but then realized the new cap was on wrong. Meaning that the little notch was on the wrong side. So then I tried to replace the wires accordingly. I fully think that i brain farted and messed the wire patterns. I put the coil back...

To make myself sound even more retarded,,,,,, I keep seeing the firing order just listed as numbers and it saying the distributor runs clockwise. With that being said does the number 1 wire goto the 6 o'clock position or the 12 o'clock,,if I am standing at my front bumper looking down on the cap?

I dont remember turning the dist . As for points,,I have no clue how to set the gaps and getting electrical infor on these cars are a pain. If the old resititor doesnt smoke how could the new one be getting to much power? If I can get it to start running smooth at idle and in drive I won't...

Also is it common for a new resistor to smoke? I thought it might be burning off the stuff the put on them to help keep it clean during packaging but it kinda freaked the wife out so i put the old one back on,,,no smoke. In the past 4 days I have ran into more issues.
