Got caught in swapping the brake and diff from a 74...

Also changed the rear bumper, for a solid one with a better shine a the rubber bump on it.

Found out that a 78 Lebaron driveshaft was what I needed for this combo 904/8.25"

Still have the very very slow 2.45 gear in the 8.25" diff...will change one day.
Now sits on 15x7" on each corner with 205/60 in front and 235/60 in back.
The whole front end is rebuilt direction and suspension, plus new rear shocks.

Now at the body to have some hole repair... I am just very happy that I could drive it this summer, gave me the kick in the rear to continue the project...
 
Glad someone else got their A Body on the road this summer - looking good. You should be able to enjoy a few weeks of fall weather before that mean Montreal winter hits. :)
 
Thanks for the good words. I am often thinking that this thing is quite ugly, with is 4 doors and is color, but then I think about the fact that it is a MOPAR :evil3: , then that he has a V8 :toothy3: (hey a 318 is V8!!!)...and that he is rolling so I guess it is not that bad...

And yep, the freakin winter is coming at us soon. In about 2 and half month, it's gonna take us 10 minutes just to dressup to go outside !!! :cwm21:
But it's the perfect time to fix the car...
 
Nothing like your 4-door sleepers they are cool and very sneaky. Back
inthe day I had a '68 Olds Cutlass 4-door w/ a 455. It was so much fun
embarassing IROC Camaro's & Mustangs with a $300.00 4-door sleeper.
