Doh, i should have spelled Baracuda correctly in google, Just Mopar has one

just found it on classic industries site, but they dont list a rear gasket

Thanks Redfish do you know where to get a gasket for a notchback?

Hey guys,, a friend is restoring a 67 Cuda notchback, is the windshield and gasket the same as a convert? If not, where could a gasket be found?

Not only paint, but Holy Cow, the price of console parts. Wanting to put a console in the Superbee, almost $1000 for all the pieces, Holy Cow.

I have had really good luck with Rust Bullet, i cant afford body and paint work either yet. I sanded and put this stuff on the places i could reach, about a yr or so ago, and havent had to do anything else to them yet. My lower rear quarters suck too, so i will just cut them out.

Ever seen Plumb Crazy next to Amazing Grape? I was at a show a week or so ago, its deeper and brighter that Plumb Crazy. I really liked it.

My sister had a 76 Valiant, i think it may have had it. It had a god awful color green textured vinyl roof along with the same green matching interior. YUCK.

thanks redfish, i will look for those

That explains it, my door hinges need some help too.

How does one fix a loose door striker post. The post has come loose on my 71 Scamp, inside the door jamb. Can you weld that thin metal or can you drill and countersink without the door hitting the bolts or screws?

i am looking to do some rust prevention work this weekend, To take the panel thats below the rear bumper off, do you need to take the bumper off on a 71 Scamp?

I have never done it before. I can sand it and prime it, but the rear fenders behind the wheels have some bad rust. Both sides, about 3 or so inches down from the body crease on a Scamp the sheet metal has spots of rust, some of which have gone through the sheet metal. Sure I can just...

So, its summer time, time to get the body on the scamp done. Just checking if any of you that live in the Seattle area would want to take the scamp body work on. Not a whole lot of dents or anything, just typical rust behind fenders and body panel/fender straightening and...

Hey Mopar girl, that aircraft stripper is awsome, i worked at a FBO at Boeing field and for a couple of other big aircraft co's. Cant beat that stuff, never used it on car paint though. I imagine it would strip automotive paint in no time. gotta get some of that. great idea

Interesting article. Lake Washington Voc. Tech is supposed to have one of the best body shop class around. I was thinking about taking a few quarters of class to see what i can learn.

LOL, a clear day, without wind, and no chance of rain here. HMMM that wont be till ummmm July. HAHA, just being funny. OK, so if i need to get all this stuff together, who can reccomend some good primer etc I know there is a ton of stuff out there, but what do you guys really think is...

Yeah, not having a garage really blows. The house we are renting(thank god) has been bought, along with 4 or 5 other properties, and land to be made into Condos. Hopefully i can find another house with a big garage.. Cool website too, thaks 70dart

lol not me actually, everything but that

Thanks DGC, i may look for one of those covers. I saw your post with your link in it. Do you still have that /6 intake/exhaust setup? I may try that set up, instead of a crate motor, just to be different.

Thanks for the info everyone. Yeah i am going to strip completely and get it painted, preferably Plum Crazy. I went home and looked a bit more. The panel behind the rear window, in front of the trunklid has those seams on each side. Looks like it was rusted before, and they used bondo...

Thanks Hemipar, Yeah i know my limits. I dont even want to attempt to start cutting metal yet, without any replacement stuff. Just want to get a handle on the rust first. Really the only bad rusty area, is the rear window/trunk as a believe the car was garaged untill i got it. If it is...

ValiantMike, I am having my rear window weatherstripping replaced this weekend, so we will see what it looks like under the rear window. In my official not expert opinion, the rust looks to be moderate in that area. Hope fully it isnt very bad.

thanks eric, you have a PM

Thanks Oldvart, I dont plan to paint it myself. just trying to take care of the old paint and rust first. I have a dremel and a sander, to take care of that. I may try to do the rust filling and panel replacement, i have done welding before, replacing metal doesnt seem that hard. Just...

i see a lot of statements about self etching primer. What is this and how do i use it?

Oh thnks for that extra info Elephantkiller

Thanks Mike, I kinda need to take care of the rust first, as the car sits outside and i have no garage, dont really want to get a car cover either, my experience with a car cover tells me these are worse that it sitting out in the weather as it traps the moisture in. I have no clue how or...

OK all you body guys, this weekend i am going to start tackling rust. What is the process of this? I dont know any body guys and have never really prepped a car before. Who ever had the scamp before painted over the paint. It looks like they painted gold over white, then painted white...

OH, OK, So you use it to get the old one out. Is putting a new one on pretty easy? Put the gasket around the window, or put the gasket on the body and then slip(or manhandle) the window into it? There must be a website somewhere explaining this, but I cant find one.
