I'm sure you have highway gears too...Should be faster than your posted quarter mile times...My 4-BBL Slant six goes 17:50s at 79 MPH with 2.76 highway gears (for comparison)...Adding a set of 3.23 or 3.55 gears would surely do wonders! Solid car btw!

Welcome from Ravensdale!!! Very nice project you have there...Best of luck!

Oh trust me, I know exactly what you are talking about...I've been planning the repainting of my Dart for 5 years now and have changed my mind literally hundreds of times. Right now I'm debating between the FY4 and EK5 burnt orange metallic. Of course my paint job is still a year or so away, so...

Very good insight...Isn't your car FY4 light gold poly like mine though? Or are you saying that you are going to paint yours FF4 light green poly? my original FY4 paint has really grown on me too! I keep thinking I should just repaint the original color, keep the black vinyl top, add a black...

Nice starting point! Keep us updated on progress! The rust isn't too bad, my driver's side quarter panel has more ;)

Agreed with your color statement...Unless you don't care about having mismatched colors throughout the car or don't mind doing all the engine bay work and such. The FY4 gold really does look great when repainted, you just don't see the color much as people usually don't stick with that color and...

Yeah I can understand what your son is saying when he thinks it is a "grandma's color"...I guess it has just grown on me because of all the great memories with my car and the FY4. 6+ years, too many round wins, 2 track championships, all the time working on it, and the Dart having been voted the...

Plum crazy is a good choice. I also think red looks good too EK5 burnt orange metallic (this color has grown on me for some reason) Not sure what green this is, but I love it! EK2 Go Mango! TX9 Black! One of the colors that I'll be considering. Another one I love when executed...

The FY4 gold has grown on me, but I think a color change is in order. B-5 Blue is always a safe choice. I'm thinking either black, A8 Dark gunmetal metallic (1971 color), or EF8 Dark green...Too many good choices and I have changed my mind on too many occasions. Sublime and the other high-impact...

Thanks! Paint is next on the to do list. Just a little cancer on the driver's side quarter, and surely their will be some under my original vinyl top. My Dart has my "senior-project" built 225" with a 4-BBL, mild cam, headers, forged racing pistons, etc...The 2.73 highway gears are keeping the...

Hmmm...Looks familiar ;) Good luck with the build!

Fellow Washingtonian A-Body lover...Welcome! Cool project and great resto thus far! I like the color.

Best of luck with the project! Looks like a decent starting point...Keep us updated!!!! What are the plans? These '70 Swingers are funnn ;)

Nice project...What do you plan on taking off the parts car?

Nice project! Can't wait to see it finished!

That's going to be a beautiful Dart when finished...Great starting point! And don't feel bad about the left hand threads...I myself learned the hard way ;) Who would've known?

Yeah I can understand that...Seems like very little is done on my car when I'm at college 9 months out of the year. One of the reasons why I may have somebody else take care of my cars body work. Cool that she participates with the maintenance/upkeep though. Please keep up on updates as I would...

Cool project...Is your Daughter participating in the rebuild?

Very nice looking Duster! Keep us updated on the progress.

Wow! Great work! Lots of good parts and great fabrication work.

Congrats! It may have been sold, but your build has left its mark on here...In fact I'm getting ready to repaint my Dart with the original FY4 next year!

Beautiful!

I agree with Johnny Dart...Especially with a new teenage driver, an added distraction is no good. I put in a gauge cluster in that same spot (water temp., trans temp., and oil pressure), and I have a bad habit of looking down a little too often while on the highway. I was able to build a bracket...

Looks like a nice start for a project...Keep us updated!
