'70 Dart 392 Project; what direction?
Well yesterday I got the engine/trans back out and pulled the seats.
Hauled the car to my buddies shop and we hammered out some work in a few hours!
First up: this is how I plan on lifting the car. Granted I’ve got access to a forklift and an overhead hoist… this could probably be modified with a riser/extension to work with a cherry picker. The round stock fits in two holes located on the bottom of the frame rails just behind the core support. Should work great.
Then we cut the trans tunnel from the donor panel, cut the auto tunnel out and got the new one welded in place. Check out those “factory” welds from the donor floor!!! Laughable at best haha
Going back in the AM to bolt in my pedal assembly and load the car up to haul back to my shop. Might pull k member at get that prepped to drop off at powdercoat.
