10 Day Magnum Swap - '65 Dart 270
Car show season has started here in Southern Oregon and we don't have a car ready for any of them.
We have been staying crazy busy with the Magnum swap parts for A bodies and Jeeps. Wire harness after wire harness. Always good to stay busy to keep the lights on and the kids fed but we still want to go for a cruise and check out all the hidden gems the Pacific Northwest has to offer.
So last night I was whining about not having anything cool since the 67 Dart GT Convertible still has a few months of body and paint and my need for instant gratification was kicking in.
Sitting out back has been a '65 Dart 270 just waiting around for some love. The 273 is tired but the trans works great. The passenger floor looks like a flinstone car but that's an easy fix.
So 10 days till the first working man show n shine of the season, here we go.
-Kelsey Hayes front disk brakes, borrowed from the 67 vert.
-5.2L Magnum w/ our Stage 2 (.520 lift) cam, Fully polished Valves w/ No Machine springs for some thump n grunt, Pro Gear Double Roller Timing set
- Keeping the factory trans and rear 7-1/4 till it blows
-Wheels and Tires TBD
-Fuel Injected as always
