1966 Dodge Dart
What did I get done this week. Well, this week I painted the arm rest supports and the pulleys for the front of the motor. In order for me to align the pulleys up front I had to press the hub down about 1/8". this should bring my belt alignment in. I didnt know you could do that until the engine builder showed it to me. Then I went to work to set the rear in its correct position. Centered the housing left to right, then started to find the correct rearend angle. I think I have it where it needs to be but just to make sure I posted in the suspension section before I do any welding. I will tach it in place then remove it from car to do a final weld. I plan on adding extra gussets to add strength. I brought the alignment plates up from my dads and positioned them so when dad has a free hour he can help me do the alignment. Things are still moving very slow but at least I am moving forward. I hope to get the interior work started this week. That includes painting everything inside, (paint work is so time consuming) installing the headliner, (1st time for this project) installing gauges steering column, carpet. I think that will take weeks! Ill keep posting progress. here are pics of this weeks work.
