69 Dart 340 Swinger Street/Road Race build
Some more progress today. I put the original TBs back I in while I’m waiting on the 1.14”s. Then i could install the hubs and calipers. I’m still waiting on the 2 piece rotors to be assembled so I cannot shim the calipers. Then I’ve been dreading the next step, grinding out the outer wheel center’s on my brand new wheels. Luckily it went well and I took my time with a large Aluminum carbide burr and lots of WD40. I was able to get it back to a roller. I can’t express how happy I am with the look of this car. I know i’m going against the norm of fatties and skinnies, but I really think the car looks great with the wide squared look. Tomorrow I’ll get the inner fender wells painted so I can get the fenders back on and really see how it will look and more importantly, how the wheels fit in relationship to the fender arches. I had to get a pic next to my other project that was put on hold, my 81’ Bronco Ranger.
