MOPARTS community:

I just dropped in my 1966 Barracuda with drums all the way around the engine and trans. I found the transmission mount bad, the engine mounts totally shot and the frt end needs freshining up.

Ball joint and tie rods are good but the boots are shot. Bump stops are shot and the control arm bushing need attention. I've looked all over the place and i do not need a performance item as I'm putting back together to sell. (Cars dont sell very well with the engine and trans on a skid.)
I am doing this as inexpensive as I can so I can keep the sale cost low.

Anyone know where to buy these parts as the local part houses are like "Ya, our computers dont go back that far... Dude whats a BarraCUDA?"

I see plenty of sites for aftermarket poly. Anyone sell just a boot kit for the factory rubber? Mine lasted 40 years.... how bad can they be?

There were some cheap front end kits on eBay, for the mounts try napa, or try and find an old school parts store in your neighborhood, or try rockauto.com
