1972 Canadian H-Code 340 Dart Swinger Special Resto - Finally started!
Temporarily forgot to weld in this brace on the left quarter, I alway intended to weld it in after the quarter since the damn thing is a pain to test fit the quarter over and over and over. Just a pointer for those that are doing quarters and didn't realize that brace was there its easier to cut the quarter around it then you can get much better access with your drill to get those spot welds. It is necessary piece to keep the quarter from cracking in the corner.
The rear serial number stamped on the right trunk trough is correct and matches the one up front on the fender apron, little blurring on the last digits.
Lots of welds to drill on my back, almost felt like having a snooze about half way through them!
It's amazing how deeply pitted with rust in these two areas of the rocker on both sides were for a car that was never driven in the winter as long as I've owned and sat in my garage since 1985 which account for all but the first 7 years of its life.
Cleaned up some of the spot weld surfaces.
Cliff this special hole was for some very special Smokey Lake Speed Equipement, any guesses?
