Project "Distraction from life" A theraputic 65 dart build

Well after lurking around here for a couple months getting all kinds of ideas I thought Id start a build thread and introduce myself. Little bio first to explain the title of this thread. This last Oct I lost my wife to cancer wich I took really hard for not only did I lose the love of my life but my family too for since I was just step dad I had no right for my step daughter so she had to go live with her dad who wont let her even visit. So in Oct I was hanging out at my brothers drinking and he mentioned that the 65 dart he too in trade the previous year he was thinking of selling, (hes a ford guy. Still trying to teach him the error of his ways lol) well 2 days later I received a life insurance check, So after going thru my finances I called him and inquired if he was really going to sell the Dart. said yes so obviously I asked how much. $3000 later I was the proud owner of a rust free 65 dart:cheers:
I drove it for a week, previous owner before my brother had already swapped a 318 into it, disks brakes and sway bar up front, and 8 1/4 in the back. other than that it was stock. So after a week I realized It needed power steering, power brakes, I plan to drive it a lot so needed an overdrive trans, 4 wheel disk, and FUEL INJECTION ( I HATE CARBS WITH A PASSION). So up on jack stands it went and onto ebay and internet venders I went.ordered a rear disk kit,power steering set up, fast efi kit,power brake kit. Well Im also a disabled ver so I have trouble sleeping at night due to chronic pain. so after not being able to sleep (partially since I was overdueing things on the car to get my mind off life) Id end up on ebay late at night wich is where this all spiraled out of control lol. found a lot of stuff I just had too have lol its now got hotchkis sport rear suspension, pst front, with tubular uppers and the 11/16 up graded tierods, classic instruments gauges, vintage air , b&M quick silver shifter in a stock floor console tilt column,70 challenger shaker hood scoop, 46rh overdrive trans with shiftkit, new 245x50x17 wheels and tires, hid headlights, all other light rebuilt with leds, billit aluminum serpentine belt conversion, msd street fire ignition, hei dist, mini high torque starter, hooker headers and pypes stainless xpipe exhaust new carpet, all new weather stripping. bed linered the floor baurds dynomated them, new kick panels and bumper to bumper wiring. tan this last week found a 68 340 on craigslist sooooo had to have that. its currently at machine shop getting cleaned and prepped for a rebuild Ill get into that in another post
