That's awesome. Doesn't look like it gets used much though. I try something.

hey i'm new to this forum, but I have been a member of bimmerforums and rx7forums for years and they have thousands of posts and I can usually find info by searching and not posting, but this must be a new site because there is very little infor here.
I have a 67 Barracuda. I got it tuesday. I had new tires put on it on the front(backs were new) My freind owns the tire shop he snapped all 5 of the lugs off the passenger side(left hand threads). Then to make matters worse couldn't knock the old lugs out, so machine shop "presses" them out. I think they drilled it, because the holes were smooth as hell. so new lugs don't fit they don't tell me and tack weld them in. new tire new lugs on car tightened down drive home 15 miles no problem go to cruise in next day get 4 miles from home hear a loud noise and bam 3 lugs snap off. Now I have a wallowed out drum, hub, broken back plate, and broken brake wheel cylinder. I am having trouble finding the parts, Year one dosen't have them and I can't find anybody on here who has done a disc brake conversion for the barracuda. If anybody can help that would be great |
