1970 Dart Swinger FINALLY UNDERWAY
Alright finally got some pics here, just got back from south carolina so whats the first thing I do to unwind? start tearing my dart apart of course! Current task is stripping the car down to go into the body shop. Made some good progress today, I got the power steering pump removed, pulled the wiring harness, grill, valence, bumper, cut out the old exhaust. Also moved inside and pulled the heater box to start stripping out the dash.
WELL dash didn't go as planned, I figured out that the bolts on the top were under the windshield gasket. I was in no mood to quit though so having never pulled a windshield before I grabbed a flathead, a mallet, a razor knife, and said "eff it, this is happening." Happy to say I got it out perfectly and my some miracle didn't crack or damage it. :blob:
I started by unboxing and organizing all the stuff I've been buying and having shipped home first,
The biggest prize of all, my crate with the rebuilt 4 speed swap parts!
Came with all the pedals and linkages, they were even nice enough to include a shift boot and a little baggie with clips and brackets.
My $40 ebay'd intake, will be going on a 360.
