69 Dart 340 Swinger Street/Road Race build
Back on the Dart today. I removed the front suspension. A big thank you to this site and the wealth of information on here. I removed the torsion bars without issue because of the great info here. The upper control arm bolts were all seized so I had to break out the plasma cutter and cut the bolts out. Tomorrow I’ll remove the steering and the K member. Hopefully I’ll have time to sand blast the K member in preparation to reinforce it with more 4130 sheet metal. It’s crazy how bad the factory welds are. So I’ll reweld everything while it’s off.
I had to mock up the front wheels and I’m LOVING the look for sure.
