    I’ve gotten some great advice so far in my car build threat but want some more from others who may have done this. Mainly for sweating in a metal building. I started with an uninsulated 40x40 shop with a 17ft peak. I have a 30x40 shop but want to use the 40x40 as main shop due to it being much...

Do...

    69 Dart tire size…

    Lots of reading I’ve done with tire sizes and offset hangers/spring relocation to fit 275s in a 69 dart with stock tub and stock 8.75in rear end. 275/60/15 will fit with stock tub and 1/2in offset shackles or 3in spring relocation. But don’t do 3in spring relocation unless doing a mini tub...

    Reversive cluster mileage

    I know this is “bad to do,” but…. I want my new cluster to have “69” miles on it because it’s funny. And it will annoy the shot out of my wife when she sees that I changed my cluster to “69” miles :rofl: So… anyone know how to turn back the miles in this cluster?

    Cost of Paint and Bodywork?!

    Is this really what a 20k paint job looks like (the grey truck)?! Imperfections all through out where the body panels meet, paint chipping where the hood closes, not clear as glass and a babies ***? I get that paint and body work is a skill, one which I don’t have. But for 20k at a local shop...

    I’m not sure where this goes or what it is? It came in my 69 swinger but it looks different from the dash in my other 69 dart. I got a new heater bezel and radio bezel that look like the one in my purple 69 but I don’t know what the other radio bezel is from with the little round knob holes...

    Swinging for Divorce…

    My other build thread has over 170 pages so I figured I should start a new disaster for the new dart. My son wanted it and it was a good deal so here we are… wife said not to spend to much… but this thing will probably cost me a fortune. 1969 LM23P, dash vin present, matching body vins on rear...

    Engine bay paint

    I know the engine bay should be painted to match the body color. I just picked up this car and the engine bay is sprayed T5, Copper Poly, right now. I got the car because my son wanted it (didn’t hurt that I wanted it too), but he really wants to paint it turquoise for the final color, Q4 or...
