Hi there. New member from Aus

[Wazzah]

Hello
Just introducing myself.
From Darwin, Australia, became the proud owner of a 73 barracuda late last year.
She’s a factory 318 car changed over to a 440,727, gear vendor overdrive and 3.9 ratio 8 3/4” rear.

It’s a great cruiser and drives well but still needs a fair bit of work.
Figured this would be the best place to talk with other like minded people about parts and the like.
Looking for to chatting with everyone.
Cheers.

Na it was already done.
Pulls up really well. As good as any modern car I have driven.
Seems slightly bias to the rear, though you only notice at very low speeds but I reckon the shoes may be slightly over adjusted.
Pulling the diff out later this month so I’ll sort it out then.

Welcome, do you guy's still have unrestricted speed limits on the highway?

Welcome, do you guy's still have unrestricted speed limits on the highway?

Na it 130km now in most places along the
Stuart highway.
The government was debating bringing the open speed limit back so there is a 200km stretch just past Alice springs but that is a day or so drive from where I am.
Shame...
