Dat Dusty Dart, a sympathetic rebuild with some enhancements.
OK - I am the second registered owner. I bought this from a long time friend who patiently cultivated a relationship with the original owner for YEARS until he was willing to sell it to him and him only. He's known on Mopar threads as UCUDANT. Anyway, here's a few more pics of what I am starting with - 340 Swinger, 4 speed car. Sometimes the word "Restored" gets thrown around too lightly and I don't have the chops to perform a restoration like some I've admired on this site! This is why I chose to say rebuild, with some enhancements.... enhancements like the Jamie Passon 5 speed I have in a box, waiting for install and the disc breaks y'all will see in a later post. I need the pressure of maintaining this thread to get my butt back out into the garage after more than a year off - due to a house project and raising four kids. Anyway, I'll have questions and welcome feedback.
