Birth of a 1970 Dart Convertible

-
well, I have a different question. I already painted my hood but I'm not happy with it and I'm not sure of the paint lines on it. I can't remember my 70 hood paint line location. Does anybody have the measurements and does it get painted to the windshield?
Here is a picture I found, it looks right to me.
Thanks in advance
Jim

I finely found door windows for my project. The bad thing was they came with all this stuff attached to them. LOL You know sometimes you just have to buy the cow...

@moparmarks has the paint scheme you are looking for
 
It's pretty much where I left it. in 2021 my oldest went swimming, not thinking, and dove into the pool and broke his neck. He drowned and died, thank god they revied him. This is a picture of him and his oldest son. That picture was taken a few weeks after rehabbing .

Oh, wow…very sorry to hear about that!
 
You don't know what the next moment brings. I was going there every day to help with his care. He doesn't have any use of his hands. I have everything except getting the top and seat covers. My wife broke her foot at work so she can't drive. She will be going back to work in a week or so. I'm going to try to get started on that again. How about you do you have any projects going on? Take care.

That sucks!! I can’t imagine not having use of my hands, and being confined to a wheelchair! Gotta be so depressing. Coincidentally, my wife is having foot surgery in 3 months, so she’ll be confined to the couch for 3 -6 months after that.
As far as projects, I did build a 360 that I might put in the Dart in the spring, and I’m restoring a M*stang pedal car for my granddaughters.
Anyway, keep us updated if you get back on the ‘vert…I’ve seen a couple of these done and always thought it would be cool to have one…not ready to cut my current Dart though!

Cheers, and good luck!
