A Teenager and His Swinger

So we jumped head first into tackling the wiring. It's only been a day and it's already the most complicated thing we've gone through. When the car was painted by the previous owner, most of the plug ins and wires were cut off, smashed, or mangled. Luckily I'll be able to replace most of it with new or better wires.

I painted and installed the gauge cluster and heater controls panel along with a brand new radio. The wipers, heater, and a few guages work right now, so hopefully we'll be able to fix it all soon.

Also I took the Dart for another quick drive. This time I was actually able to stretch the legs of the 360 after a good cleaning of the carburetor. This car will suck you back in the seats from a dead stop. 70 MPH cruising is as easy as could be. I can't afford to use the 8 3/4 with 3:23's just yet, but I can't imagine how it would run with better gears.

Burnouts are fun too.
