James's 1970 Dodge Dart build.
Just a small update, nothing crazy...we were working on the driver side quarter panel and stripping the old paint, and noticed it was re-skinned long ago probably in the 70's. They did a "decent" job for the time. SO, we got it down to where we could see what was goin on with it...
So, I bought a full OE stye quarter panel from Auto Metal Direct. It's a real nice piece. We should have it installed soon. I currently don't have pictures of the new quarter, but I will soon.
This was a bench seat car, but i'm putting in bucket seats. so we welded in bucket seat reinforcement plates, just like the factory did.
I am also installing the lower radiator support and inner fender braces that FABO member "badart" makes.
I had John bend these up for me to clear the 17x8 inch wheels, and will be installed something like this:
That is all for now...more to come later...
