Lots of time on my hands these days so I need to start addressing some of the small issues on the Dart before spring actually arrives and the one that bugs me the most and its every time I open the hood. After seeing a number of survivor 72 A-bodies that had black blower motors I figured mine must have been changed since it was metal finished and my heater box was messed up so it should be black.

Well the black might be correct for many cars but I came to the conclusion mine like the other 340 Specials and many other A-bodies came with the metal finish blower motor. I have couple of heater boxes for parts and this one was the same and the motor works fine just need to remove the paint and get the best metal finish I can and protect it. Pull the box out and do the swap and reinstall,

Took a number of hours but I've got lots of those and pretty happy with how it turned out and I can open the hood now and not always look right at that.
