    Decision making was never my strong point...HELP lol

    Long story short, got 2 threads going, one with my 360 magnum build, and another with my 68 Dart 2dr post build. Soon, hopefully, I will only need ONE thread. Or, maybe not. The other day I had the opportunity to get some big block parts, at a decent price, from a retired racer. All of...

    Buildsheet location?

    Every mopar I've had has had the buildsheet in the rear seat back. Well, I bought my 1973 Dart Sport 340 as a basket case, missing the buckets, console, and lower portion of the rear seat. The upper portion along with all of the fold down parts were still there, and in nice shape. No marks on...

    What color should I choose?

    Hey everyone. A while back I traded my 68' C10 sb step for a 68 Dart 2dr post, and it has turned into a father/son project (he "claimed" it as his as soon as he saw it, he is 12). The car is EE1 dark blue with light blue interior, and I am keeping those colors. My, well, our, dilemna is the...

    Bought myself a pretty sweet gift yesterday!

    I'll keep it short. Like many-most-of you, I happen to check out the Hot Wheels section of any store I go in. I have a small, but mopar and a-body filled collection. Well, after we were done with the Fathers Day dinner my fiancé surprised me with, we had to stop by Toys R Us for some diapers...

    I need your help. Everyone and anybody with an opinion, cuz I don't know what I want to do/should do. Here is the dilemna... I bought a 73' Dart Sport 340 last year. No engine/trans, and I'm not sure if the rear is original or not. I'm missing the fender tag and build sheet, but the...

    Found my old dart for sale....

    So, I was browsing another mopar site (I will leave out names, etc) when I stumbled upon an ad for a 1972 Dodge Dart Swinger. Since that was what mine was, I always read about them. Guess I'm biased. Anyway, I noticed it was from where mine went earlier this year. I got reading about...

    Anyone need anything glass bead blasted?

    Where I work, I sit at a big glass bead blasting cabinet all day blasting locomotive parts. We use a really fine, and expensive, glass media that does a great job on parts. It isn't magic, but it is gentle enough to remove everything but keep stamped numbers, etc in place. I use it alot for...

    Getting another MOPAR!!

    Well, as some of you may know, I sold my 1972 Dart recently to pay for a lawyer to get some custody and visitation of my daughter. I had a little extra left over, so I decided to look for another toy... I know its not an a-body, but after 16 years I want to try something different. I posted...

    No more A-body....

    Well, I sold my Dart that I had for 16 years. And, the Valiant is almost parted out. I am a-body-less. I still have my Indy-headed 422, and my 904. An 8.75 housing/brakes out of a 71' truck. I was thinking it is time for something different. I may get out of the muscle-car era and do...

    New grilles in the Valiant

    I was bored and put my new Barracuda grilles in my 66 Valiant, I didn't get the chance to put the headlights back in yet or anything, and I know the front bumper isnt on straight (I just kind of bolted the front clip on so I didn't have parts lying everywhere) but I love how they look! Oh, and...
