1969 Dart Street/Strip (Re)Build

No updates here in a while (and for good reason). I haven't worked on the car all winter! The car has sat in my garage with an occasional out and about run if the weather is nice. I wanted to take a break from it for a bit since I was just flat out getting burnt out. But seems like now it's either too dang cold or something else is going on.

On a sadder note, after I ran the car back in November, I let the previous owner of the car know that I got it to the track and pointed him to the track video through FB. He was extremely pleased at what I had done to the car to get it to what it is now. His health was bad when I bought the car and it was up and down over the years. This was the reason he had to sell it. But just a few weeks after the track day, his 'ol lady messaged me through FB. Rex wasn't in good shape and he wanted me to know how proud of me he was before he passed. She said it wasn't going to be long and it wasn't. Just hours later Rex was gone. It was a little like losing a distant family member, although we had only met once, but talked on the phone many times. May our lost Mopar brother RIP. Rex was about 73 years young.

So on to my list of things to do on the car so it's ready for spring (right around the corner!).

-The exhaust cutouts need turned up further so I don't drag on the trailer
-Need to get a trans temp gauge and A/F gauge installed
-I have a strange growling noise at high speed that needs addressed. Will take the driveshaft out and get it balanced on a machine that will turn it at high RPM
-Take the center chunk out and have the shop who put it together correct the coast side since it whines on deceleration
-Interior: door panels, carpet, seats, seat belts, stereo, custom package tray
-Need to get the front wheels turned a bit so that the steering wheel is straight up when driving
-I have a set of Hoosier slicks that are on a set of steelies that won't work on my car. I need to get these wheels cut and modified for the correct backspacing or just get a custom set made to mount the slicks on. I need to reach out for some help or suggestions from you guys on this.

But anywho, should be starting on all this soon because I'm going to run out of time and miss the cooler spring weather!
