68 Dart Project.
Now that the Dart is nearing time for paint I figured I had better tie up some loose ends. That being said, so far the Dana has just been eyeballed into place so time to that get finished up. Once evened up and the pinion angle set at 4.5 degrees the spring perches got tac welded and the dana came back out from under. Some Pics.
Ready to weld the perches up solid
Diff is back in place and notice the perches have been boxed. I've flattened and curled perches in the past, that won't be happening again.
Everything tight, pinion angle set. Inner tub clearance at the tire sidewalls, 7/8".
Tire bulge sticks out 3/16" on each side. It will have the right look.
Driveshaft hoop finished and welded ends painted.
Next up, some mods to the front fender corners and then it's time to start building the big poly paint booth.
