What Are You Doing To/With Your Car Today?

Don't order wheels on my account. Make sure they will fit your car. :thumbsup:
 
Nothing today, but tomorrow installing a new speedo pinion gear to hopefully make my speedometer a little more accurate. It was off by 7mph at 60.

Also trying to finish up my LED dash light upgrade and get the thing back together.

For sure, I'm just trying to get an idea what tire sizes will fit and look good on a Dart. I'm probably going with 17x7 for the rims.
Thanks for posting your combo

I had a set of 17 X7 wheels. Could not get the back spacing I needed, went to the 8 inch wide wheel, all is good.

She needs a truck or at least to use her own Dart for this stuff man.

Working on this today. Just some parts I threw together.

Getting ready for Spring Fling. Tuned out an off-idle bog on the Eddy 1407; turns out the PO had the accelerator pump linkage on the lowest hole (away from carb). Moved up to the 3rd hole. Changed the fuel filter. Adjusted the idle mixture; gained 1" Hg vacuum by leaning it out. It was pig-rich at 3 turns CCW. Car runs strong from idle to WOT. Changed the oil and filter. Just about ready to hit the road.
 
Had a few minutes after changing the oil in my just purchased daily driver. 2015 Subaru WRX. Very fun to drive and pretty fast. After that I decided to remove the cover of my 70 340 Duster removed the cover enough to lift the hood and re connect the battery. Turned the key and she fired right up after laying dormant for the winter. I didn't have any time to go for a ride but next Sunday we have somewhere to go for a cruise. My car is far from finished and has seats and a nice dash inside...thats it....no rug or headliner yet but who cares....
 
More Falcon bodywork... Almost done with the filler/1st blocking but Easter and some family commitments will push me back a few days. Should be in high build next weekend.

Did some bead blasting, and now I have a brand new 50 year old 710 Filter Adapter. Can anyone recommend some decent primer before it goes into storage?

Finally got out in the garage to work on the latest project a little. I had to reconfigure my outboard fogger around a little & lean the solenoids in a little to clear. I made all of my templates to start making my dual Dominator tunnel ram shaker conversion Time to start hacking on the parts now.
