74 Dart 360 Sport

-
I ran I to some issues with wire pinch I think, need to figure out issue with blinkers shutting down. Then I can button dash up for good. I got a local graphics place making something up I have them changing bottom of slope and the letter. font has got to go. I want it more in the style this challenger has below it. I like the bill board graphics.

Yea that looks pretty cool, but the numbers don't look right on the Duster-white graphics
 
Yeah the numbers they choose were not right I will have them play with it a bit more. For sure not going to old graphics I hated the RT delete for Dart Sport that is not a good stripe at all.

I noticed my picture disappeared for mock up bill board 360 on car. I did get my dash in except the blinkers switch flakes out. Works then doesn't hazards are fine voltage is there. Ordering new.
 
Found the culprit wire at fuse box gray to turn signal relay. We're I to do this again I would have done express or barebonz Ron Francis the retro works but I would have gotten a higher quality system.
 
Ordered all the AC stuff and went all six groove serpentine. March performance had some good reviews on it's system for AC type setup and power steering. I'm a little worried about the alternator I have the big alternator and it's brand new. I plan to run AC powered direct to battery, I believe it's in the instructions to do so. I gotta get some different terminals as I got so much on the battery now.

For whatever reason I remember cvf racing being way less expensive than March...

It was like 20 dollars once I matched like for like. Once that was realized would rather it come from summit was my thoughts. Review was good for both and I have seen both installed with good results.
 
In choosing A on decal fellas thoughts. I have my choice as A for billboard. Thoughts good/bad or don't do it.....

Myself and one of my customers have used cvf and anytime there was an issue they were more than happy to send another piece out... But then again summit is the same... Maybe March is getting realistic with the prices or CVF is raising theirs.. anyways it sounds like you've done your research and that's a good part and that you're happy after all it's your money lol.. looking forward to pictures of the progress...
 
Also from the door back maybe doing some kind of narrow to wide spacings like the AR cuda on that panel to break it up a little bit give it some motion..??... Just spitballing if you have a computer to be able to try different things...

Now you got me thinking I the numbers idea and the slots in blue after!
 
This is going to be pretty snazzy when all is said and done..
Its been a lot of work this part has been hard on hands lmao, cuts all over hands dried out. I hate the stainless trim but I cant deny it looks amazing on drip rails and beak. I will probably not buy the wheel well trim I think that those may mess up the look. But I may do some small chrome mud flaps maybe though will I ever drive where I would need them? I do want to get some under bumper exhaust chrome tips not sure on type yet. Not square I dont think that would look good though never know need to render it up.

So you have a large project and just like my power wagon I just kind of left things quite plain and started driving it and found all the little bugs and things and corks it was hard enough just getting all that done the first few times I drove it. Then you get a time to sit back go take it to a car show drive it around look at it and as time goes by you'll be able to kind of modify it put different decals on it or different pieces of Chrome. If you get it all done and then it's overdone you'll start going to car shows and have the little Muppets that look in the windows and a fake a&w tray hanging from your window and all that corny stuff. Don't overdo it too much is too much...
If you don't give yourself something to play with in the future you're going to end up like the rest of these guys with way too many cars cuz you'll find that building it's the fun part...

It's already started guy has what looks to be a 72 or 73 Firebird in his driveway. He has been ill for a long time. I want to buy as it has no rust paint it, LS and send it lol. Another fun highschool car I liked. I would love an E or B body but I don't want a flipping Belvedere/Satellite. I also am not keen on the getting price. Wife wants a Q7S nice car as a toy. But that's a buy and swap boring.

Nice! the one I like looks like this so many parts for these and not terrible builds. The one I found has no rust sadly I think its a six all depends if he will sell it. Not even sure what its worth guessing the year its not desirable should be an easy buy.

Back at it AC condenser installed tonight I assume the hole up top where passenger blinker sticks through is great for AC lines.

Do you have a pusher fun for the condenser?..
I got a small one I plan to use I think it's a 10/12 SPAL unit. Little unhappy with Francis dual fan controller having to be in cabin mounted. I got room to move the condenser in more need be.
