I took my mother to Costco, they were $1600 and they worked well. They also have free adjustments, cleaning etc.

I suggest if you use a regular fan have it outside blowing air into the booth through a filter. Positive pressure instead of sucking vapor through the electric motor. The 36" fan may be too much concentrated air flow unless you can disperse the air flow. I'm currently setting up a temporary...

The car is black and I got it from repairable autos in ND. They have some SRTs but they seem over priced to me. I like this color combo from the 2013 SEMA, I think it was a concept car.

I appreciate all the input. I picked up a 2014 RT anniversary addition with 6 spd and 15,000 miles, leather etc... It is a repairable car. The damage is body only, no air bag deployment. The major project will be replacing the rear quarter panel the rest will be bolt on parts. I went this...

The copart car sounds like it came from a Carrie Underwood song. I have a history of buying broken toys and fixing them up. Kind of my justification for all the boats and motorcycles etc. The SRTs with the 6.1 seem tempting since the prices have depreciated.

Thinking of buying a newer used challenger w/manual trans. This would be mostly a daily driver. Are there certain years that are better than others? Used RTs are a good price point but I think a used low mile SRT might be the way to go. Thinking of a 2009 or 2010 but could get newer. Will...

Good thread, I have the exact same questions. I live in truck country and it is easy to get truck engines around here. I have pondered getting a truck engine for parts to use on a rebuilt long block. For those those of you that have done this swap. Would it be better to get a truck engine and...

Thanks, I am looking.

You bought that in Billings? Damn I snoozed on that one!

I have been looking at the build your own thread on jalopy journal forum. Considering giving it a try with a modified cross member. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/how-to-mustang-ii-deux.70073/

What does it take to make a T56 out of a Chevy or Ford work with the 3G hemi? The input shaft lengths seem to be different. I would also like the manual trans for the fun factor. Ideally would like to find a 6.1 with a manual attached.

I have a roller /6 72 duster w/o ac and planning on installing a 3g hemi. So I have clean slate to work with, not going after stock interior. I also have a 90 taurus with ac and fried tranny and a very good body (wife's old college car). Planning on using the taurus for a donor of sheet metal...

Is that B5 blue or something different? It seems darker, I like it.

I think Bubba Watson the PGA golfer bought it.

The after market mustang II style rack and pinion coil over units are available for about $1500, including GM brakes and power rack. The problem is the cross member is behind the front steer rack and where the engine oil pan is located. I am thinking the steering angles are engineered into...

So would it sound like a tuner? That would get some looks.

Hope that was the thiefs head hitting the windshield. Sorry for your loss.

Where I live the VIN probably wouldn't matter, especially if it was painted John Deer green with a yellow racing stripe. It's just an oversized floor pan patch on a 40 year old car. Basically I have a roller that needs about everything, plan on swapping in a 5.7 L, by the time I'm done with...

I was watching Street Customs and they put something like a 69 charger body on a 08 charger. Has anyone done this with an A body? I know it would be a total blasphemy to put a duster on a new mustang frame and suspension but the wheel base and track are close. For less than the price of an...

I picked up my wire at a salvage-recycle center. When I was wiring in the outlet I was amazed at the small size of the wire out of the welder. Then I was informed that circuits for welders are based on the the duty cycle. Any way I wired in a true 50 amp circuit and used the recycled 8 gauge...

Interesting discussion. Is there a solution for those of us who would like to install a 3g hemi and keep power steering with the stock front end? The problem seems to be the power steering box is too large. Would it be possible to modify the k frame to lower the power steering box? Or use...

I mean can a car 5.7 hemi be used with the alterk instead of a truck hemi. Thanks for the replies.

An inexpensive way to install a 3g hemi and have power steering would probably sell very well.

B5 blue!

Compiling parts for my build, originally was thinking of going budget but now thinking of alterK. I seem to severly underestimate the amount of time my projects will take. The alterK seems like it will shave off a lot of time and provide power steering. The front end would need rebuilding and...

Should the metal be sealed before priming? I have read of some type of phoshoric acid prep (ospho phos?) but not sure what is does exactly. I used chromic acid and allidon sp? (aluminum conditioner) before painting aluminum boats. Would it be beneficial to shoot por 15 into hard to reach...

I plan on blasting, panel replacement etc.. to a 72 duster. This is my first project and will take some time to replace metal. What is the best way to protect from rust after I blast it and while the metal work is in progress over months? I am a little confused by the options, epoxy...

The options and products just get better and more competetive. I better get work on the body. I would like to see those motor mounts for the duster.

Thanks, I just discovered 5.7 Dart build, a lot of information, nice car.

With the stock K frame is there room to raise the engine any higher than the TTI mounts? Modifying the transmission hump is not an issue to me.. Is there much room before hitting the hood? Another option I was considering is TIG welding my own headers. Time consumimg but could be worth the...
