Nice work as usual!

Exactly, haha it will be hard to find something as cool.

For a while after the crash I was not sure if I was going to fix the car and I didn't know much about wheel repair, I assumed the two damaged wheels were scrap so I sent one to Ireland to serve as my garden hose holder for the past two years. After learning that repairing wheels is normal I...

Shortly after visiting the guy doing the repair the car was done! It is now no longer a crashed car which is exciting, its "just" missing some parts. I think he did a fantastic job, the new blue 68 fender fits like a glove and it looks more or less original with the rolled sheetmetal the...

A little more progress on the repair. When I was in Sweden over Christmas I went to visit the guy who was straightening the car, luckily this was only 1.5 hours away. Both frame rails needed some repair from the wheels moving back but most damage was on the passenger side, as you can see the...

Great work as usual. What speedometer cable did you use? Does silver sport have one that works with the original instruments? I assume an adapter to change the gearing will be needed later on.

Just read the whole thread, super clean work, thanks for documenting! I have saved a lot of photos for reference when I do the same swap.

I just found a 67 Barracuda with Viper V10 for sale: Blocket - Sveriges största marknadsplats, bilar, bostäder, möbler m.m. Unfortunately for most here it is in Sweden but thought I would share anyway because it is so unusual. Looks like it could do with being tidied up a little but its the only...

The straightening of the car has begun! The car was transported to the guy who is doing the job a couple of weeks ago and he has made some progress which is very exciting to see. So far the dent on the left frame rail has been fixed, next up is the right side where most of the damage is. When...

Thank you. No matter what the car is for the k member and LCA welding is a great mod, almost no cost and makes a big difference. That's good to know about the sheetmetal, so far I have a 68 passenger side fender and hope to reuse the drivers side, for the bumper we will have to see, there are...

It does make progress very slow. When its running I hope to bring it to Ireland where it might become the only Dodge Dart in the country, there are almost no American classics here. Thanks! The steering wheel is a Grant challenger 860.

Have you noticed much difference in terms of steering feedback, maybe small bumps and divots in the road feel different?

Centre links are symmetrical right? I assume having it backwards would not cause this issue.

Hi Peter, I bought a Borgerson box from you recently but have not installed yet. I think you said that the Borgerson box wants 12-1300 psi, what's the ideal pressure to give the pump? Does the steering feel change much depending on pressure?

What lower control arm pivot and bushing did you have when you got +8° with generic tubular upper control arms? I think I remember reading that some lower control arm bushings push the control arm back giving you less positive caster.
