    Need help pulling my 273

    Actually, as mechanical endeavors go, I thought it went pretty smoothly! Lots of fun, dude. You missed out on the rest of the wrenchin' this morning. pdtFreak forgot his old brake booster at my place... I might have to repo it ;) I think his MC needs to be rebuilt. I still think that your 273...

    Need help pulling my 273

    Thanks to all of you. It is a bit late in the game to go to a tranny shop now. We got most of the stuff disconnected last night. Still need to do the torque converter bolts and engine mounts, then pull it. I could see how dropping the tail of the tranny might help. We may have to do that. I...

    I've never been one to randomly pull stuff, but extraneous part removal is usually my favorite part of any project. I removed the OSAC (actually right before reading your post), and then noted that the vacuum line going to my dizzy was pretty lose and melted. New hose going directly to the...

    Need help pulling my 273

    Ramenth- THANKS! I think you are right about the half moon wrenches. That will certainly be worth the purchase (Oz- while you are at it, you can snag some pliers!). We are at the head end of the project now. Coolant is draining while we catch dinner with wives who haven't seen us much lately...

    Need help pulling my 273

    I'm the aformentioned "VW friend". We had a round with the starter a little bit ago. It won. The top bolt doesn't appear to be readily accessible. The carb linkage and a lot of other stuff was in the way. Perhaps one of you has some tricks to getting it out? The goal in pulling the engine is...

    74 Dart parting out. Free sheetmetal!

    That is the exact twin of my car. How is the interior? Got any pics? I am also interested in the side marker lights in the rear and the right side mirror. Mine are missing. I don't see it in the photo, but would you have the right side "Dart Custom" emblem?

    Double strike on the keyboard. Sorry. Disregard.

    HA! Ask my wife, I never throw anything out! So, perhaps this is the wrong place to ask- but what the crap are all those sensors and vacuum hoses doing on my air cleaner housing? I've located the charcoal canister. I assume it can be eliminated. I put a Edelbrock breather on the valve cover and...

    I have a '74 Dart Custom /6. It is a California car, and the intent is to make it a daily driver. It is no longer restricted by any emissions testing, and the engine compartment is a cluttered mess. Perhaps my searching skills are not up to par, but has anybody gone through how to properly...

    Leaking Freeze Plugs -Help-

    Now we just need to get that engine hoist and do your starter at the same time.

    New (to me) 1974 Dart Custom /6

    Fine, here are your photos. There will be more as I get into her, I promise.

    New (to me) 1974 Dart Custom /6

    Good mornin'! I've been browsing for a little bit here, since a friend of mine purchased a '66 Cuda 273. He is a member here, but I don't know his handle. My wife's 4runner suffered a catastrophic failure last week, and left me in the market for an affordable car. I have become somewhat...
