My first muscle car build thread (lots of pics)

HAWAI'I said

I love it SirDan! I love the transformation, looking really nice.

I too have a new 73 under construction, sneaking stuff here and there but most of my time is being taken by a 2 yr old, my business and life.

Someday I can get my car looking as nice as you would want yours to be. Keep up the good work

Quick question thou, what driveshaft did you end up using for the 8 3/4 and I assume you did not narrowed it right? The Mosler axles are purchsed for what purpose? You could not use the OEM one? Thanks!

I got a driveshaft from my uncle. His house is literally stuffed with old mopar parts. I measured the length and he picked through what he had and found me one. Worst case scenario if you can't find a used driveshaft you can have your existing one shortened for around $100-150 with new U joints.

The reason I purchased new axles was because the OEM ones the rear had were small bolt pattern 5 on 4. My car was large bolt pattern 5 on 4 1/2. The moser ones I ordered in 5 on 4 1/2 pattern and are supposed to be stronger than OEM. I had money at the time otherwise I might have went a cheaper route.
