Finally got to working on the floor pans and frame rails. Passenger side floor is fixed, driver side front frame rail was welded in today. Need to finish driver front floor pan and a small hole in the firewall. That will be all the body work for now. Plan is to get the engine back in, replace...

Here it is:

Its been a while since I have updated, however there hasn't been alot of progress. It is running now, but haven't driven it yet. Purchased new brake master cylinder, lines, hoses and wheel cylinders. Also have new floor pans to put in and was going to start that project a couple weeks ago...

Got some more work done. Finished cleaning the top of the engine up, new valve cover gaskets, new fuel pump, fuel filter, coil, cap, points, condenser, ballast resistor, wires, spark plugs, and finished rebuilding the carb. Got it back together, put the battery from the boat in, hooked it...

I have a 70 Swinger that was not original and did some modification to that, and this '65 is really complete. I would like to keep it original with the exception of tires. I was gonna see if I can get it to run, and take care of anything else mechanical, replace the floor pans, fix the seat and...

Also got some cleaning on the engine done. Removed the rockers and pushrods to get them cleaned up and need to replace two valve adjusters that were broken. Used some engine brite on the intake manifold and rinsed it off with some carb cleaner, and took some paint with it.

I finally got around to working on the Dart a bit. Last winter I took the carb off to rebuild. Got it cleaned up and rebuilt, however I lost a bushing (#24 in the diagram) for the pump spring. The carburetor is a 2 bbl Carter 0-1612 Anyone got one kicking around? Some Pictures:

thats different, there lots of salt mines around so it is used heavily. They didn't seem to use much the other day when i went to buy another car though.

you drove through the snow?!!? do they not use salt out there?

It seems as there was not enough room for all the pictures...

Hey everyone, I found this car on this site posted by Justin Hughes and decided to buy it. Most of my peers are getting married and/or pregnant, so I might as well buy another car. Justin saved it from getting scrapped by an owner who left it under a tree for 10 years. It was last registered in...

Glad to see there is still progress being made! I live in Fleming, i'd love to stop down and check it out sometime before it get put all together.

am I the only pervert that instantly saw the TNA? It looks like it will all clean up nice!

very nice!! It would be interesting to see some dyno numbers, i'm sure your curious about that as well. What are your plans for finishing the body? are you gonna dress it up or leave it looking like the sleeper? by the way, be careful about doing long burnouts like that. Its fun, but the Dart...

this looks like a good build, I've never looked at too much of this turbo stuff on gas engines before (I work on a farm so almost all of the equipment has turbos). It'll be interesting to see the rest of the build. Also, you take great pictures, its obvious that it is your other hobby.

those rims look great! now i have to debate about buying new rims and tires or saving money for a house

wow, i didn't know those dashes could look good! I never really liked them but yours looks beautiful. Steve

looks great! and its nice to see that you got to drive it this year too.

i know what you mean by the color in the sun! I look at my dart in the garage all the time, and then once its outside in the sun its very bright. Even catches my eye in a parking lot! looks good, keep up the good work! Steve

why did i buy a dart?! should have bought another '68 Barracuda in good shape instead. Damn that looks gorgeous

60x100?!?! thats bigger than most farms have i wouldn't know what to do with that much space, i guess rent it out or fill it with more cars like you are!

wow, good progress. it feels like it takes me forever to get some things done.

the engine bay is looking great! You probably did a better job putting your engine in than i did, i had to do some touch up painting afterwards. The only other thing i gotta say is those ignition wires are out of control! i got some wire looms and they really clean them up nice. Especially since...

you can feel sorry for me, i have a '70 Dart because it was what i found after looking for 3 weeks (when i want something, i want it soon). I also have a '68 Barracuda that is in very rough shape, the body work is beyond my skill and budget, but i dream of selling the dart one day to get '67 or...

hmm, i never noticed that the rear valance bolts on as well. must be all the filler on my car... but yours is looking GREAT!!

i could show you some close up pics that are pretty rough. I'm gettin the mechanicals done, and maybe in a couple years i'll be willing to try or pay for some body work. Any progress on the poison dart?!?!

that looks good!! A very straight body for $4,000! I paid $3,500 for mine and the body is not straight at all, whoever did body work in the past did not own or borrow a block sander. But i do think that sublime green with flat black hood and stripe looks pretty good...

i think that not alot of girls get excited when they see a car like that. You are LUCKY!! It looks good in primer, and it would be interesting to see it in flat black too. and a 360 with a 4 speed will really be nice!

thats coming along fast and looks great!! I still can't figure out why someone would paint that color though... I bought mine sublime, thought about repainting it but now its got a blackout hood and bumblebee stripe and i think it looks good now! I actually can't picture it being any...

glad to know i'm not the only one that gets "your working on your car this weekend AGAIN"?!
