Nice work, Jack. Are you flipping or keeping?

You're right! Dave stole them!!

Getting ready for the Winter fun: drop the tank to rebuild the fuel sender; rewire the under-dash; swap out the oem gauges for Dakota Digital system. But... the barn will finally have heat this Winter, so it won't be as painful to work on Nadine.

It's not your exact car, and you may be past the point where you could use this, but there's an article in Mopar Connection online that's a great tutorial for installing the Dakota package in a B Body...

You may want to check with AMD (Auto Metal Direct) for a repop piece. But I'd try to find a good original piece from a donor car. Something like this...

I'm in need of the round connector for a non-rally gauge cluster on a '68 Coronet. I could really use a good unmolested harness, but I would settle for just the (female) connector.

Thanks Grant. And welcome to FBBO! That's good information. I just came across a great thread over at FABO, that clears up the identification problem: (and, Grant, I see you were a part of that discussion) 69 barracuda 340-s VS Formula-S The cars with the "340-S" emblem on the fender were...

For you guys that might have a good understanding of A-body values: I'm looking for a rough estimate on what this car is worth? '69 Barracuda "S" 340 auto. Already restored. 73K miles. Sorry, that's all I know at this point.

Well, it seems the block (or maybe the entire engine) was built in the Windsor plant... hence the GW340P33920517 stamping. The block (or engine) was then shipped to Hamtramck, stamped with the VIN of the car - 1B267250 - and installed. So, the engine was cast/built in November of '70 and...
