'70 Dart 392 Project; what direction?
Tomorrow I gotta play hooky from work a little bit. Gotta pull the seats out, trans out, and engine back out. Borrowing a friends enclosed trailer Thursday and will be hauling to my buddies shop Thursday. Plan is to have the welding done on the trans tunnel by Friday night. We’re also going to make our own lifting mechanism to hoist the front end up. Got a good idea for it, I’d it works I’ll share. Cost is about $50 in steel and some minor welding.
I got my new steering wheel and adapter installed. Super happy with how it looks. If anyone guesses what the wheel is styled after they’ll probably want to slap me
After trans tunnel is done I’ll be ordering spring relocate kit from RMS (can figure why USCT price is 3.5X more expensive?) and will be fabbing my own minitubs. Very much looking forward to having that work complete and getting my rear tires/wheels back so I can measure for my rear axle build.
This is definitely the fun/exciting part. Major steps and items being checked off. I’m sure I won’t be so thrilled when I start rewiring the entire chassis or running the heat/cool system!
That’s fantastic! Thanks for posting/sharing. Going to be wicked when done.
