Post some pics after you've just finish the initial cleanup! It's going to look great with green paint and that white vinyl top!

You've discovered why they installed the idle solenoid on carburetors! 🙂

Just don't be afraid of aftermarket parts. Year One is kinda expensive on their parts, but they will stand by them 100%. Hopefully someone will have a NOS set for you.

There's a whole nother topic on X vs H pipe, but in short from what I've read, the X pipe makes a couple more horsepower and is louder than the H pipe. But the H pipe is factory on the 440 and Hemi. It comes down to what you prefer, A few horsepower or a nice balanced sound. Uh oh! I might have...

Go with 2.5" head pipes off the exhaust manifolds for about 3 feet then going to 2" after. You want to get as much flow as possible. Remember the 1st generation Neons had 2.5" exhaust!

Almost impossible. Good luck. By the way, I bought a set from Year One when they first released them. I don't know about now, but the ones I have look and fit exactly like my factory ones!

The good thing is I think all the early Mopar cruise controls were pretty much the same as it was an bolt on option. So that might help with finding parts.

Factory AC equiped cars did have a higher idle setting. Like an additional 100 rpm or so. Ricks72Chlgr440, what is your current rpm in Park at idle? 950rpm or less I would think is definitely acceptable.

Do you want to keep your stock exhaust manifolds? I ask because they are going to be a cork in the flow. TTI is the best. If course they aren't cheap but pretty much certain to fit.

MoparCarGuy has all kinds of factory documentation. So odds are, it's a reproduced tag like he says!

While broadcast sheets were rare in LA built cars, I see to remember that about 10% had them. Figures crossed for you.

I think there's one coming up for sale at the Mecum auction. Might be worth keeping an eye on.

Yes, an extension to help hold the vinyl and make it a little more aesthetic pleasing.

Well, since it's a special order car "Y05", and if the salesman was willing to check A31 for a 318, it looks to be possible. They even ordered a Rallye hood with hood pins and a "Go Wing", plus chrome exhaust tips. It would be an interesting Barracuda convertible to see! Also, it would be...
