    My 64 Barracuda

    By 71RRHI

    A few months ago I picked up this little 64 Barracuda. I never paid much attention to the early Barracudas. But since owning it, it has really grown on me. In 1969 the previous owners were high school sweethearts. He joined the army after graduation. After boot camp, he came back to Hawaii, they got married and went to their first duty station in Virginia. This was the first car they owned. This was their only car until around 1979 when they got a newer used car. The husband drove the... Read more

    Something isn't right

    By volaredon

    And what I'm gonna talk about is besides having to wade thru all the damn ads here. I haven't been around lately because of those. I am neck deep on a frame up restore and rebuild of an 83 D250 truck. Too deep to cut losses and bail. Of what I have done so far has been kind of fun but I attempted to farm out the paint + body and it spectacularly backfired in my face. And Im red hot furious. While I have been blasting and painting the frame and replacing the whole suspension front and... Read more

    Porting 340 'O' heads - remove the bump?

    By 1MeanA

    I'm just starting to port the first intake and exhaust port to get a game plan together. They are roughed out and I'm using Charles Servedio's video as a guide. Every time I look at it I see another area I didn't grind far enough like the lower part of the intake guide boxx. The question is about the hump/dip in the roof near the base of the guide boss before the runner starts to transition to the bowl. You can see it on the left side of the guide boss looking down into the bowl. I... Read more

    69 Dart no Turn Signals

    By Msmith3054

    Pretty good mechanic, but I suck at electrical. I can do plug-n-play but that’s about it. All new wiring harnesses front to back, new turn signal switch, new horn relay, new turn signal flasher, turn signals and horn still don’t work. Emergency flashers work fine except the right front not getting power. Bulkhead connector not getting power for RF flasher. All fuses visually look good. This same condition existed before changing the turn signal switch. Any helpful tips from the group?

    Where to find a Radiator for a 1973 Scamp with a 225?

    By VAD Gold Rush

    I normally don’t come here for these kinds of questions, but I’m having a hard time finding an aftermarket radiator that will actually work for my slant six. What radiator are you all running that works with late A bodies still running a slant six? It has a 19” radiator currently. I’d like to upgrade to a 22” if I can find one that works with the slant. If not, it stays cool with almost a gallon of coolant leaked out. I threw in a pic so y’all can see the car I’m trying to... Read more

    Thoughts on a budget build

    By SRT_DSTRHOLC

    I came upon an abody that is missing the engine/trans and driveshaft. I already have a spare sb engine, but i am yet to see what it's out of. It looks to be a late 70s block and if I recall has a distributor. My thoughts are a junkyard/bastard build that gets this car up and running with missing drivetrain items. The list below is what is missing: 1. Radiator 2. Carb 3. Ignition system 4. Exhaust system 5. Exhaust (manifolds/headers) The car is a power steering drum car, but I might have... Read more

    AMD Windshield Question

    By 70SwingerGuy

    So here I am getting ready to put my new AMD windshield in my 70 Dart. Ive had it in the basement for a few months now, and tonight I took it out to the garage and took the plastic off of it. It was obvious that it needed to be cleaned, so I cleaned it, and cleaned it, and cleaned it. I cleaned it probably over ten times with a variety of cleaners, including Windex, GN AC Delco cleaner, wax and grease remover, 99% isopropyl alcohol, and even gunwash and it still looks like it has a slight...

    273 Head Gaskets

    By 66fs

    Here is the straight scoop on 273 head gaskets. There is no use in getting a smaller diameter head gasket since the closed combustion chamber, 64-67, measures about 3.97" at the widest point and 4.04" at the original steel shim head gasket witness marks. Since the gaskets need to be sandwiched between the head and the block, smaller diameter round bores will not work. These heads and witness marks are from an original steel shim gaskets that came off a 1967, 2 barrel 273. Since the... Read more

    Big block oil pressure

    By CS1121

    Hey guys, I’ve been looking around online and seemed to find a bunch of information but mine kind of involves a little bit of everything. First off, had my 512 built by a small local shop, was never told the bearing clearances. Just to run 10w40. Called the engine builder because the oil pressure showed very low on the gauge during a run, I let off and went home and he said use 20w50. We unfortunately had the wrong voltage in the ECU for the sensor and when I thought the car was at 65 it... Read more

    67 Rallye dash wiring harness advise

    By 65Cuda273Rescue

    Pulled from my 67 Cuda. Looks to be in pretty good shape, and with the cost and availability of a new harness I would like to try to make some repairs, clean up some connections, and put it back in the car. I have a diagram, but not an expert with harnesses for sure. This is the first dash one I've ever had out of a car. Observations: Bulkhead. No signs of it ever getting hot and all connections look solid. Fuse box looks great, you can even still read all the lettering. Harness has... Read more
