Update on My 64 Dart project

Next to powdercoating Hammerite is tough. I had some on a part one time and I played hell getting it off. Even with stripper and bead blasting with an agressive media it still had some paint residue. If you go for the powdercoating make sure you hot tank your K member. If you don't, when they put it in the oven any grease that may still be in there will melt and create a really big mess.

As far as the 4 speed goes I talked to Brewers yesterday. They have everything to make the later bell housing conversion. The only thing they don't have available is the frame bracket. They indicated that it didn't look like they would make one due to the cost of R&D. However, they have a replacement pivot. Since the stock pivot is swedged in all one has to do is remove the old pivot and weld in the newer pivot.
