1973 Dart Sport 340...Restore or Burger King?
Thanks for the input! You guys pretty much reinforced my gut feeling...its Burger King time!! (actually, a whopper sounds pretty good right now.)
I think its going to be a close to stock looking build, but with some body bracing. May make it look like I took out the stock 340 and dropped in the stroker, I'll try and keep everything but the engine looking stock.
Not sure on the color tho. I thought about going the triple/quadruple black route, but I'll be doing the body work. I'm going to try to make it as perfect as possible, but I'm a little worried I won't be able to pull off black. Red does look good, I like the thread that Adam started the other day with the red 73 and the tiger sitting on the hoodscoop lol. That car got me thinking about red, but I've never been a big fan of red, always blue. I'm afraid I'd end up regretting it. Here is what I've decided, so far:
---Dual Snorkel scoop, black
---FULL vinyl top, black (I just don't like the partial tops as much, I dunno why.)
---Black interior
---painted sport mirrors
---wheelwell moulding, new trim/chrome
Now, for the maybes:
---340 side stripes, black
---Go wing
---hood treatment
I think I have it down to the factory color, or one of the two blues that I put pics up of. The light blue is similar to the 66' Valiant that I had that was blue. I keep going back to the ice blue in my mind.
Ice blue, black top/interior, go wing and scoop, I think that would look awesome. For the wheels, I'm not sure. Torq Thrust would look good, but some chrome or polished 17's would look good too. Not sure if I want to relocate the springs and move the wheelwells in, looks like it may be a pain with the fold down seat. Keep the ideas and opinions, and pictures, coming!!!
I'm gonna check out prines car now...
