I have 70 Dart and my driver's side gap is wide toward the fender extension and my passenger side is too tight (to the point I chipped the paint on the hood and fender) I want to install hood pins, but the drivers is too far away to hit the oval straight under the hood. What's the best way...

So finally got the 70 Dart on the road and it has a remote drivers mirror, but it's pointless. I can't see anything from it. I have a passenger non remote mirror, but haven't installed it yet. Do the sport or rally mirrors offer more of a view? I'm looking for more function over style. Thanks!

Can someone post a picture of the top of a bare windshield frame from a 70 dart to show where the trim clip holes are? I put the vinyl top on and folded a little into the window channel and now the holes are covered. Thanks, in advance!

I say resto mod because the color isn't period correct. I wanted to do base clear and keep the silver and black. I had some leftover SPI black and universal clear, so I was on the hunt for a silver. I decided on Dodge PS2. I really liked that silver. I scuffed it with 400 grit, epoxied primer...

I am going to purchase a buffing wheel, wheels and compound to do the window, vinyl top, hood, fender extension and scoop bezels trim on my70 Dart. I know its a mixture of stainless and anodized (not sure if any of it it is aluminum.) My question is, do I need a sisal wheel with the emery...

The car has been painted and clear coated (finished almost a year ago). I am adding a vinyl top this weekend. What's the best way to prep? I am thinking just a acuff with grey scotch brite to dull up the clear. I am going to use DAP Weldwood Landau top glue.

I have a set of bezels, bit one has been spray painted over and the other looks like someone tried to restore, but didn't (it's all faded) If I can safely remove the spray paint (without damaging what's underneath), that one should be fine. How can I bring the other one back?

I am going to paint my 70 Dart grill with base/clear. I already have a black I like and I got a Chrysler Silver that I like. (I know it's not argent, but it will still look good.) My question is, do I need adhesion promoter because it's plastic or will a good cleaning, scuffing and wax and...

Has anyone ordered a top from them? My top came in yesterday and it appears that it was drop shipped from "KEE Tops" in NC. I was told Dante's was a legendary interiors dealer, so I guess that is what I was expecting.

I contacted Dante's because they are a legendary dealer, inquiring, on which top to choose and here is his response. I thought you had to measure your roof? You would need to measure your original top. If you don't have your original top then there is no way of knowing what your car had...

I got a set from RT Specialties, but I am unclear how the side pieces attach. The fasteners he sent are too big for those holes, besides I don't think you can access those holes from behind to attach the speed nuts. I believe the fasteners I got are for the trim that goes on the Dutchman...

I am in the final stages of blocking. Should I wet or dry sand? I need to go to 600 before sealer, but am ready for 400 right now. Should I 400 dry a s then 600 wet or both wet? Does it matter?

I am about ready for my second round of high build. The first round was done with 180 grit. I am now going to move up to 320 grit. I know I want to move up to 400 before the I lay the sealer coat, but my question is do I have to lay down another coat of high build and then block with 400 after...

I went to spray my door jams today and the gun was acting odd. When the trigger was pulled back half way, it sounded like it was leaking air near the needle. Also, when I pulled the trigger all the way back the paint just leaked out. When I was able to get some spray, it just spit. I called...

I got a set of hinges off a car whose door opened and closed perfectly. Bit upon inspectooi, the pins aren't tight inside the holes, I can wiggle the hinges a little. Figured I better rebuild them. I know MoparLeo rebuilds em and I already got a quote. But I was thinking about doing the pins...

Do the hinges have any other hardware other than the push lock retainers? Wondering if there is a washer that needs to be on the studs with the push lock washer.

I got my trunk and under the lid painted last weekend. I was going to start on the bay this weekend, but I got to thinking: Even with the hood on and closed, there will be a small gap at the cowl and fenders exposing a small area of the bay, how do you tape this area off? Its a 70 Dart going...

What is everyone's thoughts on PPG Omni Plus bc? I want to do plum crazy pearl and use SPI's universal clear. The Omni is $800 cheaper than the PPG DBC.

I am going to paint my dart Plum Crazy Pearl (PHG, I believe is the code) its the newer plum crazy color. My question is can I paint my hood now and the car later or is it like a metallic where you should paint everything at the same time? The hood is gonna get gloss black in the middle and...

What's the best way to prep fiberglass fender extensions? They have been repainted once before. I don't want to damage the fiberglass or take the shape out of them.

I'm using SPI turbo High Build primer. I'm shooting it with the recommended 1.8 and higher tip. The gun I'm using is a harborfreight purple gun with a bigger tip and the trouble that I'm having is I cannot get it to flow like the epoxy did. I have the fan wide open and I have the fluid wide open...

I have a 70 dart 2Dr and I need the clips that hold the "side" or "belt" molding on the car. In 70 they had two mounting styles. One had the studs welded to the panels, the other were holes in the panels. Mine has the holes in the panels. I called RT specialties and they don't have them and no...

Couple questions. Does the front or rear window need to be removed to install a vinyl top? Does the rear window need to be removed to replace broken trim clips?

Which comes first, epoxy or seam sealer in the drip rail?

I am going to be putting the dart into epoxy, within the next week and I want to get all my supplies ready. I am planning on using the following grits 80 grit for rough filler work 180 for finish filler work Final bock before sealer: 400 What grit should I use for blocking the high build...

I painted the engine bay last August, but now I want to respray it. It has some runs and the metallics didn't lay down quite right. I also used single stage the first time and the rest of the car is going to be bc/cc. I did prep it right. I sanded it down to bare metal and epoxy primered it and...

I bought these used, but not sure how they attach. Front fender extension trim. 70 dart

I am getting quotes to have the body work and paint done on my car. A guy came out and quoted $6k minimum to upwards of $8k. He said it will depend on what's underneath the paint (its been painted before) and what kind of paint and clear I choose. That does not include cut and buff. He does...

I have this DA: FREE SHIPPING — Ingersoll Rand Dual Action Air Sander — 6in. Dia, 4 CFM, 10,000 RPM, Model# 311A | Air Sanders| Northern Tool + Equipment but it isn't really doing much. I think it is a finishing DA. I am stripping panels for epoxy using 80 grit. I have read about using 36-40...

Well as Manny of you know, I have been on the hunt for an AMD passenger side quarter skin for awhile now. It just isn't gonna happen, I called every AMD dealer and nobody has one in stock. So my only choice is a full quarter. I found a two body shops in the area that do classics. One is heavily...
