1969 Barracuda 340 Formula S Restoration

-
Back in the car, but would not run!! Looks like the bimetallic overload in the switch got fried due to high current when it was squealing. Fortunately I had another restored spare. Runs great. Dash all back in place and everything works ok including all the vacuum operated AC dampers.

Windows installed today.
Took all afternoon! Finally found a guy who knows how to install and seal windows on these older cars. The big rear window was a real struggle to get seated in the seal. The S/S trim was a bigger struggle. Had some sections partially on but would not fully clip. Replaced several clips that were not stamped correctly. Reproduction parts- grrrr

Took many hours of work just to clean and install the roof rail trim and weatherstrip!!!! The factory applied some additional white caulk to the top corner of the A pillar. One side done, now the other.
