Hey y'all, it's been a little while since I've been on. I got a new job at an oil rigging company, so I've been a little busy. I ended up getting a powder coating system, but haven't had too much time to practice lately. I have powder coated an ashtray and an exhaust flange lol. I also just got...

I got bored tonight, decided to make a video highlighting the progress I've made on my Dart so far. Dodge Dart Sport Progress Video - YouTube

Can anyone tell what type of suregrip this is by looking at it? If you can, what are you looking at? I can't tell… I think he's asking a bit much IMO, but I'm getting sick of looking around, so I'll piece an 8.75 together. http://denver.craigslist.org/pts/4609740902.html

No sooner did I rebuild my 904, do I find a pretty good deal on a complete 1970 383 engine. The guy says he pulled it out of a D100 years ago, it needs a rebuild, and he only wants $200. Seems like a deal to me, when I was racing street stocks we'd pay almost $1 a cubic inch, usually $300 for a...

I got a burfday coming around the corner. The wife said she'd get me two tools I've been mentioning! I'm gonna get an eastwood dual voltage powder coating kit, and a welder!. Before I go hog wild on the welder, I wanted to get some opinions on the one I've been looking at. I only have 110 in my...

Hey y'all, so I learned awhile back that my car was originally a power steerling car, converted to manual steering probably when the previous owner swapped in a 318 in place of the /6. When I tried replacing my Idler arm, I learned that an Idler arm for a 1973 is the wrong part, it required the...

Anyone see the show "graveyard carz?" It's pretty cool, the show focuses on only mopars, and they mostly do factory restoration. The guys pay a lot of attention to detail too. Right down to every fastener, inspection paint marks, and paint jobs they do per factory specs. I was watching one...

Hey y'all, while browsing this sub-forum, I found a lot of mention of some junkyards, but they were sparatic. I thought I'd start a dedicated Colorado junk yard forum. Anyone that knows of one or two, post some details about it (name, location, etc...) I've been on the lookout for a decent yard...

Hey guys, I was thinking about picking up a powder coating kit from eastwood next month. They seem pretty cheap, and I was thinking for my cheaper parts that I could use an old toaster oven someone bought me as a wedding gift that's still in the box in the basement. Anyone have one of these...

I have a 1973 dodge dart sport. It was originally a /6 car, the previous owner swapped in a 318. The only thing I know of off the top of my head that it does not have is a wiper fluid reservoir. They removed it and never replaced it. i know some of these are probably from that, but the rest of...

My light doesn't work in my dash for my gauges, where is the bulb?

So I pulled the 904 out of my dart sport last night. The plan as of right now is to have it rebuilt, but I gotta say I really don't know which direction I want to run with this. I have a few options, and I was hoping that someone could shed some light for me. I'll try to organize the post so...

Found this video surfin the interweb, This duster is really nice 1975 Custom Plymouth Duster - Jay Leno's Garage - YouTube

Hey guys, I am trying to find a picture of a stock 1973 ish dart sport / duster etc rear spring mounts. My car doesn't sit right. The rear passenger side sits quite a bit lower than the drivers side. When I got under it to take a look, it seemed to me that the shackle mounts were home made. I...

Hey all, I'm looking for an 8.75" rear end for my 73 dart sport. I also need some leaf springs. The tranny I have has to be rebuilt, the tranny guy quoted me $650, so if i could buy a tranny for less than that that would be cool too.

Hey y'all, so I finally got my new idler arm, and installed it. I put the front end back together, went to turn it over and... Notta. Car cranks and cranks but doesn't catch. I filled the float bowl in the carb, turned it over, and whammo! It starts right up, and runs until the float bowl was...

The wife and I are expecting our first child in October. We found out Superbowl Sunday. At first, I wasn't really that worried. We've been together 6 years, married almost 2 years. We each have decent jobs. We bought our first house a couple of months ago. Everything seems to be fine. We kind of...

I bought a moog idler arm for my 1973 dart sport. While trying to install, I noticed that the two washers included with the arm will not fit on the k frame. It's pretty snug without them. Also the end of the arm absolutely will not fit into the center link the way it's designed. The factory end...

I'm sure that this has already been covered, but a quick search using the forums search function didn't bring up anything specific. Now, we're talking about this probably months before I actually plan on doing it (unless I come into some money lol) but I would like to replace the 2 barrel...

The code on my fender tag says that this is a power steering car. The engine was swapped before I owned it, and now I'm just trying to figure out what exactly was done. I don't see a power steering reservoir or pump anywhere. I took some pictures. Can anyone tell by looking at it whether or not...

I didn't know whether to put this thread in the /6, or small block forum. My car was originally a /6 car. The previous owner replaced the /6 with a 318. I was wondering what the differences are, if any, between a /6 and small block K-frame. How could I tell whether or not the K-frame was...

So, while trying to work on my car, I am also trying to build my collection of tools. I have been looking to buy a sand blaster in the near future, and I was wondering what you guys use. I have used a blast box, and one of those "fill up the hopper, attach an air hose, and go to town" ones. I'm...

Hey y'all, I wanted to get your opinions on Moog vs. P-S-T. I like P-S-T, because they offer a whole front end steering kit. I would also like to know if you guys think the polygraphite bushings are worth the extra cost. I am looking at buying the "Polygraphite performance super front end kit"...

Hey y'all. For anyone who didn't see my project thread, I'll catch you up real fast. I bought a '73 Dart Sport. Didn't run. After replacing most of the fuel system and scrubbing the carb, I got it to run. I took it around the block to find that the idler arm bushing is shot. Like really really...

Are there any vendors out there that sell a vinyl top kit for my '73 dart sport? I would prefer black, with the same grain as it has now.

Hey y'all. This is just a thread to track progress on my 73 dart sport. When I picked it up, it had sat for 4 years. I replaced the fuel pump and fuel filter. I dropped the tank, and found what appeared to be black tar lol. The tank was pretty bad as well. I bought a new tank, sending unit...

New guy here from northeast colorado. Just recently bought my first mopar! (I was a GM guy lol) I bought a 1973 Dodge Dart Sport. I hope to learn a thing or two from the forum, and share some knowledge as well.
