What happened? I seemed to have fallen from our conversation :-) Did you dive into the "swap"?

Gimme a buz when you get home. We'll start that Hemi-swap :-)

Hey Chris. I did the exact same thing on my Swinger. It was really one of the easiest of the thousand projects that involves restoring an on Dodge :-) My doner was from an 05 Crown Vic 28-spline and like yours is a 1-legger. I feel it's time to do a small upgrade and drop a Limited Slip in. I...

That is a NICE FRIKKIN CAR!!!

Best I can do here buddy. The mission was focused and I didn't take many in-process pics :-( I left the weld seam visible, for those that don't think it really happened.

No offense but Standup 303 posted if anyone had tried to remove the beak nose. He's got his canvas and I respect it. I respect every's car that they like/love. I never stated that it was "an improvement" but in my opinion, it is. I had a 73 Dart Sport back in the day and I tolerated the beak...

Block heater. Carry on with the build, buddy... G50

I just NOW got this notice but I see you've posted it a couple of weeks ago :-( If you've made up your mind, then it's done. THIS is the very reason that I moved my entire steering shaft away from the header area (about an inch). I used 2 3/4" swivel joints to accommodate the angle. It created...

I finally see why everyone's so wound up about motor mounts, TTI, spools, steering box... My spooles were pretty shot. Not surprising as the entire bottom looked like they used the car as a stump-jumper. 1 MM was fairly cracked and the other was welded at the factory, late on a Friday before a...
