Live and learn. i will not go back even for an oil change. The guys at Goodyear I don't think they...

    Hi Redfish - I have no idea. I had a "Hot Rod Shop" install the brakes and larger 5 lug conversion. It was a whole kit... like $1500 in parts. I would need to pull the invoices and see what all they bought and added...

    I just looked at your photo and thank you - that is very helpful. I will check those. I did look under it the other day and took some photos. One of the Rubber (bushings?) on the side of the wheel in question is half gone. It's on there but not sure how it is staying - it's torqued down so I...

    273 Numbers Matching car. Should I rebuild or swap engine?

    Congrats on finding a 340... I looked around for one for the dart but they are hard to find. My '70 CUDA was a 340 car, but the guy I bought it from replaced it with a 440 4 barrel (and sold the original 340). I just upped it to the Six Pack with an original '70 intake and new repro Holley...
