Door handle location changed for 73 and onwards as plastic sills were added.

That second FLA goal was ugly. Skinner has been ok since the Vancouver series and he wasn’t the reason for the Game 1 & 2 losses. The two time Vezina winner at the other end of the ice is playing like one by shutting down the big guns.

It’s important to know your limits and also have a finely tuned BS sensitivity meter to minimize the chances of being fleeced.

Yeah it’s tough hearing about a built budget skyrocketing. Sometimes it’s the car owner not having/setting clear expectations with the shop and sometimes it the shop taking advantage of the car owner. And in the ugliest of scenarios, it’s both at the same time! With inflation what it is over...

Problem is your idea of what a quality paint job is likely different from mine and likely different from the OP. And while the OP might have intentions of building a 20 or 30 footer, it’s likely that once he’s into the job, he will want a 10 footer which will jack up the project cost part way...

Based on what you’ve shared I wish you a lot of luck! Body work (even with minimal rust) and paint is going to be several thousand $. Depending on how fresh (rebuilt or not?) the V8 and transmission is you drop in along with new rear end/gears, new brakes and then interior, I’m not sure...

Got it. Do you have the drivetrain items already? What sort of suspension setup?

What’s your overall budget (drivetrain, suspension, brakes, interior) for the entire build (not just your body/shell acquisition)?

Welcome back!!

It’s been a long journey for you on this restoration of your Dad’s car. I can’t help but think the shop knows that since it’s so close to the finish line now they are dinging you for ‘extras’ to keep the bill going before you actually pick it up. And since it’s so close to being done they...

Correct. Merely stating they are 340 valve covers says it all. No need to also say ‘HP’ beside 340. To say 340 HP valve covers is a bit like saying ‘wet water’. Also, to the uninformed, a buyer might pay more for a set of ‘340 HP’ 70-71 valve covers compared to ‘340’ 70-71 valve covers when...

You could get a 340 two barrel? Shouldn’t the ad be for 70-71 340 valve covers? If it was a 2 barrel, they would be 70-71 318 valve covers? What’s the significance of the ‘HP’??

How are these different from the 70-71 340 non-HP valve covers? How many types of 340 valve covers were there in 70-71?

I had a similar amount of clearance on my Scamp, didn’t have any problems and therefore didn’t buy spacers.

The Oil experienced what the Stars experienced in game 6 of the WCF. Actually the Stars severely outplayed the Oil in game 6 and didn’t win. In game 1 of the SCF the Oil only outplayed the Cats and didn’t win.

That sucks! How did they get up there? Up along the A pillar?

It’s somebody’s backyard everywhere.

He took what is now the legendary ‘earthrise’ photo as their spacecraft was orbiting the moon. He appeared to be coming out of a dive but didn’t have enough altitude to level off before impacting the water.

It helps make the owner to feel ´special’ for owning a base model car! Everyone gets a ribbon!

Great stuff! It will feel awesome having it in your hands again regardless how long the delays have been!

Looks like your Scamp had AC once upon a time too.

Speaking of camber, I saw this car the other day. Nutty to know this car is being driven around before getting fixed!

Welcome and good luck with the project! Keep in mind that the front end sheet metal and trim (fenders, hood, grille, bumper, etc) of a Dart Sport is different from Duster so you won’t be able to only use some front end parts from the Duster on the Dart Sport. All or none are your options for...

It appears to have a 8 3/4 rear end, is it big bolt pattern or small bolt pattern wheels?

Depending on when your 75 was made, it might still have some remnants of the 74 seat belt interlock system that was a one year disaster. If yours was an early build (August, September or October) 1975 then it likely still has wires for it. Post up some pictures of your engine bay and your...

Welcome! Tell us about the Dart! What’s the history on it?

If you or you know someone who has a roll of vapour barrier it’s pretty easy to complete the project in a fraction of the time and cost compared to ordering pre-cur pieces (assuming they are even available).

This type of thread always brings up the ‘I/my uncle/sisters boyfriends brother/other had a Duster/Valiant/Demon with a hemi in it from the factory!’

The steering wheel is on the wrong side for you folks!
