Looks great and great to know about the AA harness - thanks for sharing!!

Dude - looks great! You should be very proud. Nice work!

Very nice work - that is one sweet 73 Sport!

It looks really good! You did a great job.

So, the previous owner installed a B&M shifter and I'd like a floor shift steering column. They can be pricey (for me anyway). I wondered if I could just cut off the offending column shift nomenclature and display. Searching the forum I found "Modifying Auto on the Column Steering Collars -...

Forgot to post pics of strengthening the LCAs. Obviously, this happened before the above pics. Following the lead of Jim Lusk, and his video on YouTube, we cut the weld on the bump stop mount, squeezed the two halves closer together to take up the slop, and re-welded the mount. Only had to do...

Tabs and bump stops are installed. Getting closer....

Been busy and haven't had a lot of extra time to play with the Dart but we did get new bushings installed in the lower control arms and we were able to drill the holes for Hellwig (55905) sway bar tabs.

I ran it by 72bluNblu and he said it was fairly common so much so that there was a service bulletin: So my buddy helped me weld them up last year but with everything off he made a plate that will tie everything together. Here they're all cleaned up: And here it's done with the plate...

One of things I'm concerned about is the cracking around the UCA ears.

Driving my car last summer was fun but scary at times. The bushings are shot and there’s definitely an alignment issue. We started tearing it apart and will address the cracked upper control mounts as well as install a sway bar. A buddy found some used CPP on Craigslist so I’ll be installing...

Well, it's not done by any means but I was able to drive it Friday night. After dinner with the guys and walking up and down the closed off downtown street for our city's cruise-in, I decided to go cruising around town and get to know my new Mopar. The list grew a little and the order of the...

Thanks! I will keep moving - I think I see a light at the end of the tunnel. And it’s not a train

Also replaced the PO's crude cardboard dash insert with a 3D printed version...

I went to replace my license plate light bulb and found the housing was cracked. I unbolted it and it's cracked in two. I tried to find one but they're not readily available and the ones that are available are expensive. So, instead of just supergluing it together, I decided to get in the...

Getting closer...

I know this is an old thread but I wanted to tell Alex how impressed I am with his ingenuity and tenacity! I love the Brazilian A-Bodies and to see one lovingly restored through all the various distractions of life (all good things mind you), is inspiring. Alex, hope it got done to your...

Subscribed! Excellent work - nice job all the way around.

This is so over my head but I think it’s great you’re doing this! Excited to see it drive under its own power - congrats on your progress thus far!

Been away for awhile taking care of my dad. He passed away in August so this stuff has taken a back seat. Between dealing with that and work I've been pretty busy. Hoping to have a little time to finish this and drive it...for the first time! Here are some pics from last week...

Super cool!! Love it that you were able to do this all without her knowing - car looks nice too!

Getting closer. “New” turn signal switch was bad. When I turned key to run, both rear turn signals flashed. Pulled a t/s switch from another column I got in Carlisle and it all works fine now. Nothing like a MaMopar part! Previous owner had a relay installed behind kick panel. I thought it was...

It is solid. One of the main reasons I got it. Spent a little time on wiring today but am jammed the rest of the week. Maybe I can play with it Friday.

Working on it - wet sanding and need to re-shoot the hood. About a week away

So, an electrical gremlin thwarted out plans to make it to Carlisle in the Dart. My brother and I still went in my Grand Cherokee but the Dart remains in limbo. Hoping to find the issues on Tuesday.

Eliminated the ammeter and installed a voltmeter. Found a thread here about someone using a Sunpro CP8215 so I found one on Amazon and installed that. Had a an extra LED and put it in my Super Tach II - it's going be great to look at these at night.

With the paint work almost done, we still thought we could make it to Carlisle and I went to work on the dash cluster. Whomever was working on this beast previously did their best to fix the crumbling plastic but it was pretty thrashed. My buddy had two extra A body clusters so I started over...

My $19 Harbor Freight gun really let us down but we'll just have to reshoot the hood.

We tried to get it ready for Carlisle so, with it still somewhat in paint mode, we wanted to emulate the 70 Duster look with the black hood, fender tops and door surrounds.
