1972 Canadian H-Code 340 Dart Swinger Special Resto - Finally started!
Yeah, rrrrrright.............
If you want to see poor, look at my build thread!
On a serious note, if you need a few odds and ends, i might have some parts you can use, just let me know.

I checked out your thread quite a while ago, hey you did a good job working with what you got, well done. Thanks for the offer Tom, if you run across a nice rear bumper for a 72 that will likely need re-chroming but is straight and hasn't been straightened before please let me know. Mine had gotten dinged sometime before I got the car and was straightened by a blind man and is full of ripples and waves and I can't trust these chrome platers up here to improve on it should I get it re-chromed. To tell you the truth I'm afraid to take a nice one to them and get back a piece of crap.
I only managed to work on the car a bit today and managed to test fit the quarter panel. The panel over all fits pretty decent but I do have a few issues with matching up the upper body line too the door, it doesn't seem to have quite the same amount of concave curve as the door and the body line doesn't seem quite as tall and is a bit flatter. I think I will see if Randy's (Hemiorangeswinger) thread ran into the same issue, panel is nice and straight otherwise. I'm running out of clamps holding these three pieces in place, lol. Quite a bit to do thou before any welding happens, some blasting and epoxying and undercoat matching and painting all before the panel goes on to stay.
