    finally took some pics but been thinking bout selling the dart

    thanks cudamark. i guess this is the learning process as i am not sure why someone would want antiquated stuff like extremely sagged leaf springs and a broken power steering box just to preserve originality? not being sarcastic at all. my theory has salways been if i cant use something, i...

    finally took some pics but been thinking bout selling the dart

    thanks all and no offense taken at the "less optimistic" values. i am a realist and understand that i am most likely not going to get all the cash back. esp amongst those who know their MOPARS - and i am not into trying to swindle anyone. May i ask what appears to not be original? My intent...

    finally took some pics but been thinking bout selling the dart

    sorry duh - i didnt list what i'd done: mildly warmed-up 318 with edelbrock carb and intake, summit headers. also have the original complete /6 drivetrain that is in perfect working order. i swapped the drivetrain last summer for a more muscle car style and kept the /6 setup in a clean and dry...

    finally took some pics but been thinking bout selling the dart

    well i just dont know what to do. i like the Dart and am proud of my work with it. because i only got into cars about 5 or so years ago and so i never had a single car that i HAD to have. but since then i have been leaning towards a mid 50's-early 60's pickup but i can't have both. i have...

    insstalled susmmit's exhaust on my 67 GT - holy cow

    well got the gas tank back in, redid the exhaust, now finally getting to installing the new leaf springs this week. once done i'll finally post some pics. i cant drive it the way it is as its just too low for our roads. suspension is gone in the back so just bit the bullet and got the old...

    2 fuel tank questions - can i use a 76 tank on a 67 dart and is 1 gallon enough

    got the tank fitted i had the car up on 1 jack stand and i think the gas wasnt near the outlet. dropped the car down and she fired up. saved myself 60 bucks!

    2 fuel tank questions - can i use a 76 tank on a 67 dart and is 1 gallon enough

    to start the car? i idiotically routed my exhaust too close to the gas stank and burned holes in the tank. i dropped the tank and realized i had a tank from a 76. i got it to fit in there and put the filler neck on, reconnected the sending unit wire. added 1 gallon (it was completely...

    insstalled susmmit's exhaust on my 67 GT - holy cow

    heh sorry all - i ended up being a moron and put the damn pipe too close to the gas tank. now the tank has 3 holes due to the pipes heating it and then bashing it on out crappy roads. so now i need to pull the tank and get it sealed. ugh. anyway i used the stock 210$ kit from summit. no...

    insstalled susmmit's exhaust on my 67 GT - holy cow

    what a difference!! with my brother in law's help and a new air compressor and impact wrench, took just over 2 hours to install the complete setup from summit. with shipping etc the total cost was about 250 for the kit. may be a bit subdued sound for some folks but i wanted to get quieter...

    fixed creaking sound by wrecking exhaust - now need a new one

    thanks Dan - are those summit kits fairly straight to bolt -in or do you assume that they are "just the basics" and a lot of fab will need to be done? I ask because if i am just paying for the mufflers and the rest will need to be fabbed, i may just buy the pieces seperately. if the kit gets...

    fixed creaking sound by wrecking exhaust - now need a new one

    well as some of you may recall my 67 dart had a "creaking" sound anytime i hit a bump. well turned out part of the issue was a loose caliper on the drivers wheel. well i was still getting a weird creaking/grinding sound from the drivers side when i hit a bump and it freaked me out. i didnt...

    bringing dart to shop again - cant figure the noise out

    lol yeah - i had another thread going about it. basically there is an awful crunching sound going over any bump - coming from the drivers side right beneath the floorboard. i boxed in the rotted torsion bar support and it didnt make a single bit of difference - cept now i swear i feel the...

    awful sound when hitting bumps - cant determine the problem

    i am about to add some gasoline to the car and toss a match at it. i just finished boxing in the tosion bar area and it made ZERO difference. if anything the crunching sound is worse. put the wheels up and tried to shake them to see if i had any bearing movement. they seem fine to me and...

    awful sound when hitting bumps - cant determine the problem

    i didnt remove the torsion bar during this process. also the noise started maybe 2 months ago out of nowhere. i can see that the exhaust can rub on the frame at times so to test things i removed the exhaust from the header back (so no way for exhaust to hit the frame) and went for a short...

    awful sound when hitting bumps - cant determine the problem

    hey guys well after ffrying my starter relay while welding in some support plates at the torsion bar on drivers side, i took the car for a test drive, the crunching when hitting a bump is marginally better but still very prevalent. i only boxed 2 /3 rds of the torsion bar area so i will do the...

    another idiotic moment on my part - fried the starter

    fixed it!!! got the new starter relay in, redid the wiring to/from the starter, dbl checked all grounds and tightened things up a bit. turned the key and she fred right up! fortunately was only a $13 fix but a VERY valuable lesson learned!! oh and it would have been an hour or 2 to get the...
