1973 Dart Sport
Made it to the rescheduled car show. I finally have most of the old bugs worked out. The only one left is the transmission fluid coming from out of the bellhousing area when it's parked. I'm thinking the front seal got damaged somehow. No crankcase pressure issues and the alignment/ride height seems good now though. The hood even lines up a lot better. The EFI seemed to be struggling with braking and coasting on the way to and from the show but that was solved with an IAC adjustment.
The bad news is that I don't have second gear for some reason but I'm still not sure if that's a shifter issue or a transmission issue. Gonna mess with the shifter one more time to see if I can't rule that out before handing it off to a shop. Still needs an actual exhaust system as well but other than that this thing is looking good. Almost race ready.
