Cool, glad to help. I got PosiRon hooked up with his. Turned out well.
Will probably need your expertise on the headliner as well...

No sweat! Just remember you have to put the headliner in before the front and rear glass and best to do the top after the glass is in. Just so you can plan.Will probably need your expertise on the headliner as well...

I got the GTS unbuttoned today. Checked the fluids and tire pressure plus topped up the charge on battery. Will wash the windows and fire it up tomorrow and take it for a spin. First stop will be to top off the tank with fresh fuel.

Thinking about rebuilding my motor if the compression test is bad. Any tips or tricks if I do? It would be my first rebuild. 66 dart 273.

Good place to start is the Factory Service Manual. Should have complete basic motor rebuild info. At least give you an idea what your getting into. If you need the FSM, they are available under reference at Mymopar.com
I have a recent rebuild in my 66, 318, runs great, that I might sell if you need it. Complete.....See it run and drive....Let me know...
O and I like your car...
What year of teen?
67. With swirl port heads.....4bbl in my Dart...
Nicccccccccce
So a 67 date for a 67 model year or 67 date for 68 model year?
I am sooo tempted to keep it in the car, I have been all over the idea of putting a 408 stroker in it, I actually bought a 408 from @Johnny Mac and have collecting the neded parts to in stall. BUT the 318 runs so good I might keep it and sell the 408!!!
It came out of a 67 Camper van. A100.
I like the way uncle Tony put it,..... you really have to define a purpose for the car to determine what is the right amount of power you should be getting out of it.
Only you can answer what you want the car to do for you, and the teen might be the answer.
That's a cool vehicle going more to the extinct side
It was real low mileage, but had the top cut off for the camper setup.....ruined...

Thanks brother. But I'm keeping numbers matching. The compression is good. I noticed that my coil is getting too hot. I tested spark but its intermittent. Brand new coil. I think I'm in for an electrical problem. I'll tackle it tomorrow.
Almost had to hit the disagree button!! Lol.
Come on...500 ft lbs should be plenty of motivation
