1966 Dodge Dart
Not a lot of progress the past few weeks. Summer is here and wife likes the beach and I have to keep momma happy!! The time i have spent has been on wiring. Im in the process of trying to get everything run from under the dash out to frt of car using the aluminum tubing like I did for the Alternator wires. I find what use to take me 20 minutes years ago now takes me 3 times that long today. Also staying focused is harder to do as well. With the holiday approaching I will have even less time. The one thing I am hoping for is that the body man will show up to finsih the quarter panels. Once that is done I think I can do the rest of the car myself. I've contacted the guy that painted my vette which I posted for 360dartgt66 a few posts ago, and he said he would spray this one as well. I have to have every thing ready so all he will do is come and spray. I will supply all paint but the good news is he said he will do it for $400. Was going to paint it myself but for that price I dont think its worth me taking a chance on screwing up and redoing it. Paints not cheap!
Thanks to the kind words from everyone on the start up. I forgot to tell you I also had fuel leaks at some of the line fittings before startup but they were because of not having everything tight enough. But once I went over each fitting connection again we are in good shape. Oh, forgot to say I did buy a set of 4:56 gears for the spare 489 carrier I have. Will be buying a spool and getting those set up some time this summer as well.
Thanks Rod
