1965 hemi dart

That car is one of my next projects lol. Still no 2.4 thou. Later.
Well, I’ll just have to keep waiting patiently then. Lol
I’ve got a line on a PT GT with a blown head gasket for $500. Unfortunately I’ll be out of town all week so there’s a good chance it’ll be gone before I can get to it.
 
Sent the dart out to have some work done to it. The newly placed alternator, along with the re worked manifolds. The new engine plate will fit great. I can’t what to share more.

Little by little. Some more happens. Front cover/engine plate, exhaust manifolds, alternator done.

Have you decided on turbo placement yet? Are you running twins or a single?
 
Have you decided on turbo placement yet? Are you running twins or a single?
I haven’t. Likely going to be twins as I can not stand the look of a single exhaust out of one fender. I want to run it to the back but I have planned on rear mounting my radiator. So I am losing real-estate lol.
 
Haven’t updated for a bit as I have been staying busy with a bunch of other stuff. This project still moves on. As this car is everything too me lol. The newest item showed up. Wanted to bring this thread back to the top.

Finally made it out to the garage today. Spring thru fall gets busy here. I made some mounts for my sliders. Hopefully this will allow for the right adjustments if needed. Now to get them installed.

I received my hood and bumpers. The hood still needs fitting around the windshield and cowl. Add some dzus fasteners to it and then some final finish work it will be ready for paint. The bumpers will be wrapped in chrome. I can’t wait. Little by little it comes together.

Plugged away with the dart. Summer is tough as we are super busy. But I can’t wait. Hopefully next weekend I can mount the springs. Little by little this project moves on.

Well a dislocated shoulder has kept me from doing much. Off work for a month and going crazy. I had to do something. I pushed through the pain and got my axle mounted. Man this thing is looking great. Little by little.

I have been thinking about starting a project log for a while now but have not. My car is still not done but I am making a huge movement to finish it with yet no finish in sight. Plans have gone a different direction but same goal in mind. Things have changed before they ever got used lol. I wanted to share what I have done and what becomes of it as we move on each day. Thanks
DAT..... is bad toooooo DA Bone bro

Did you buy the trans from Tick or buy one somewhere else and send it to them?

I purchased the transmission from Tick. I was going to build the one I have which is a challenger TR6060 that I converted to a T56 tailshaft but plans changed and I wanted the GM input shaft because I was able to get a 29 spline.
