Start of a Dart

They turned out way better than I expected. It took a while, but once about half way done, it started to click and I banged out the second half. The right tool is the key (MIG with gas). Once the settings were adjusted right it went on like cake frosting.



Those are new ones from Firm Feel, their standard A-body springs. The rear end is new too, 8-3/4, Dr. Diff BBP axles, 3.23 gears and a sure-grip. Things are getting fun now, I expect to finish off the rear half of this project maybe today or so, then go after the front end rebuild.

Oh man you're down quite the rabbit hole, an expensive rabbit hole too! Im looking forward to seeing how your car sits with the new springs because I'll eventually get new springs as well. What shocks did you go with, I dont remember seeing that?

I just had to pay for national boards part 2 which was 600 bucks. In November I have to pay for the national licensing exam which is 3k and state licensing which is another 2500! How the heck do they expect students with no jobs to fork out that kind of money lol.
