Tincup's 63 Dart w/5.7 Hemi

[Tincup]

Patience Grasshopper, I've been working on my brakes and fuel lines, I'll have some pics soon.
Question; should I paint the gas tank or leave it raw (silver)? I'm thinking black so you don't see it.

 

[rapidtransitric]

probably black. as long as you don't cake it with black under coating

 

[jeffneal66]

Black.

That sucks, I was planning on caking it on.......LOL

 

[a68postcar]

well TIN, even caked on black under there, sorta, kinda, disappears.

Check this out, I got my new front brace courtsey of Eric Baxter at White Trash Speed and Engineering. He did an awsome job, so if you need any steel work done, give him a call.

Sent you a pm

What does it support? Shouldn't it be boxed?

nice looking piece

It is basically just a stronger version of the stock piece (3/16" steel vs. 16gauge). I did not want to modify my front valance or to loose any ground clearance.

Ok, so you cut off the stock one and put that one on?

 

[old mopars]

Still following along. Lookin good.

I probably should have just left the stock piece alone, but hey, you have to break some eggs to make an omlet, right.

[4mulaSvaliant]

Just the insipration I needed as I plan to get back to mine tomorrow! Awesome build.
What software are you using for your 3d modeling? I use Inventor on a daily basis and LOVE it!

 

[Tincup]

so whats next?

Tomorrow is weld in front brace, weld tabs on the rear for the brake lines, paint the bottom half of the fuel tank. No work Sunday bringing my daughter back to school in NH.

Shawn Mascoll did the rendering, I don't know what he uses. I use Solidworks for the mechanical stuff.
