For a short while, I thought the new dash wiring harness was not correct. You have to buy a separate one for the A/C. There are connections between the two and you have to use your old one for a template. The new fuse box doesn't come with the A/C terminals and you have to make sure you have everything wired the way the old one was. I don't know how you'd do it if you didn't have a complete old one to go by? The wiring gets a little more complicated with A/C. Also, the new one doesn't come with the maplight wire or the under the dash reverse light wire and you have to save them and plug them in to the right locations. Another dash photo.
Out of curiosity for my own knowledge, what Barracuda gets the woodgrain and which one gets the non-woodgrain rallye dash? I've seen them both offered, is the woodgrain for 340 and up cars and black/silver rallye dash for 318 and /6 cars?

It’s been 6 years since I last posted on this one and 8 years since I started posting about my Barracuda project. Some of you will be glad to know that I will be debuting it on the showfield in Carlisle in 3 weeks. Still waiting for some new A/C lines but otherwise done. Look for the B5 blue 340S fastback probably in the rows inside of Gate 3 where they usually have the A-body cars. Looking forward to it!

Very nice.  Really wish I could have scored the '69 S 340, 4spd. back in the early 80s (and kept it). Tim

Cool, I will see it at Carlisle! I wish this one would have been finished before the drivetrain was stolen, 69 M-Code 440 notch...

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

I wish mine was an M code..FYI, I bought the purple 14x 4” steel wheels from you a few years ago for my fastback. They are on the car now (painted black of course) with deluxe 14” wheel covers and Goodyear redlines

Cool, I recently saw some pictures of those purple wheels I had saved, glad they went to a good cause! I like Blue Barracudas, my old boss had an M-Code fastback that was beautiful.

I'm the CARETAKER of Weinstats '69 440 'cuda registry and have 104 of the 360 cars to date. 84 fastbacks/20 coupes. Always looking for new(REAL M-code) '69 440 'cudas to add to the registry so drop me a note if any are found or known. This isn't a publicly released registry. Thanks, Dave

It was nice finally meeting Big-Block-Dave! Thanks for coming by Dave and saying hi. I was very flattered to get some nice recognition by a lot of people for my car at Carlisle this year! I still have some work to do on it but am glad to say it was a successful weekend.
