Newbie From Minnesota

Hi everyone! I have been doing a lot of reading on this site, and I have learned a lot so far, but it is time I finally introduced myself. I just picked up a completely rust free 1974 Dart that was originally an AZ car. Here in the last of 10000 icebergs (lakes), that is a rare gem. Most people here are convinced that old cars came from the factory with rust already on them. Anyways, my goals for my Dart is to install a larger engine and do some upgrades along the way to getting it back on the road. I have a great deal lined up for a 440 engine and drivetrain at the moment, so that may be the route I go. I have a complete 1970 front end that I am going to put on the car. I'm going to convert the rear as well. I may go to a 4 link rear suspension. The Dart is definitely is going to be green! I just picked up an 8 3/4 rear end that has been narrowed for a mini tub kit. I was originally a Chevy guy, but Mopars grew on me due to marrying into a Mopar family and getting a few good deals along the way didn't burt either. Plus, GM is just getting worse as time goes on...:) I am also restoring and modernizing a 1946 Dodge pickup at the moment as well. Before I dive too deep into my Dart project, I plan to do as much reading and learning as I can from everyone here. This is an awesome place for good knowledge and resources.
