1969 Dart Street/Strip (Re)Build

Wow has it been cold lately or what?! Temps haven't been above 20 here for over a week and I don't have an insulated or heated garage. Therefore, my butt stays inside! But I did make a list of all the parts that I still needed to buy and the jobs I needed to do yet. I was unhappily surprised at how much I still had yet to buy. But since I wasn't working on the car, I bought a bunch of parts. Some of the parts included all new front end parts from Rock Auto, new deep trans pan, some of the exhaust parts including some Ultra Flo mufflers, cutouts, electric cutouts, driveshaft loop, trans blanket, steering u-joints and rod, billet headlight switch and all other switches for fuel pump, etc. from Haywire, glovebox, a set of Competition Engineering adjustable drag shocks, and that's about all I can think of at the moment.

I still need the X pipe from TTi, front skinnies, and the converter. Dynamic converters are about $100 off right now until about March, or so they say. But that's who I decided to go with. I didn't need the converter and I didn't want the warranty to start yet and still wanted the $100 off so I put down a deposit and told them that I wouldn't need it for at least another month. What I'll be getting is their 9.5" with a 4000-4200 stall. I was debating between the 8" and the 9.5" but felt that the 8" might get a little too annoying around town. The 8" would be a little faster but it's also $300 more and it will run a few hundred RPM higher on the highway at a minimum. So naturally I went for the 9.5". I think it will be the right purchase for what I'm doing.

And on a side note, the motor parts are getting cleaned as we speak getting ready for assembly. Woot!
