Another 76 Brazilian Hardtop

V-100, I really THINK it was the forklift manufacturer Clark that built our gearboxes!! It is actually a pretty good gearbox, takes a lot of abuse and using parts from the same manufacturer but for gearboxes originally built for other cars (mostly trucks), you can get some pretty "nasty" gears ratios!
(I've actually never done anything like this, my mechanical skills are PRETTY limited)

OneOfMany, there actually IS one Brazilian A-body in Canada! I don't know where, but take a look at this posts, they are from a guy from Canada also.

The car pictured is one of our "Charger RTs", from 1976 (same year as my Dart, note the same taillights).
1976 was the last year for the 8,4:1 compression ratio 318s...after that, only 7,5:1.

Its been hard to post, LOT of work...been reproducing some interior sailpanels and polishing roofrail trims, real time consuming shores.

My wife is great...she not only "allows" me to work inside the house, but she also helps working on the car!
There is she in the trunk, giving the lid springs a little talent retouching the paint where the painter missed it.

Soon I'll get back to the "restoration history" pictures.
