    I have not worked on the car but its going to happen soon. I'm really excited parts are starting to show up. New axles, coilovers and R-joints. I just need to decide who my brakes will come from I'm leaning towards wilwood but I like the Baer stuff also. It will be pretty much all fab work after...

    There's not much of a plan for color. The yellow would be neat. The first time it went together it was black with white doors for a couple weeks. It looked like a cop car. I want black but my son wants blue. It might get some type of two tone. It definitely will not be show quality. Driving it...

    The front currently has .990 mopar bars, RMS strut rods, firm feel sway bar, nylon lower control arm bushings and moog problem solver upper control arm bushings. I'm going to leave it that way for now. The plan down the road is to upgrade my Dart front suspension from the C4 corvette stuff it...

    Wow! Thanks Denny. Never thought a mopar rockstar would comment on my car. I doubt you remember but I talked to you a couple years ago about using your suspension on this car.

    Updates are way behind. It is progressing slower than I want because part of it was redone due to finding more rust. The part of the factory frame that was boxed was removed and complete new rear rails were made. The rear crossmember is in and two of the subframe connectors are done. It will get...

    I have not had very good luck with JB weld. The back of the case is also messed up I just don't trust it. Passon has them and I will probably just get one from them.

    The impossible to solve overheating problem

    I don't know if you resolved this but I doubt the fan and shroud is the issue for a car traveling at 45. If the car is moving the fan is doing nothing. Its why formula 1 cars dont have fans. I would guess its the pump or the quality of the radiator. We are running almost the exact same fan and...

    My brackets for the rear suspension arrived and that's when I realized I only ordered enough for 1 side. I decided I would pull the 4spd out of the basement and clean it up. I want to at least mock it up to get driveline angles before I setup all the rear suspension. I noticed the case was all...

    I got to work on the car a little. The passenger side quarter is fitted and some stuff is ordered for the rear suspension. The plan is to have a roller by Christmas. Also test fit the wheels and tires. The rear is from my dart i just used it to see how the rears would fit. The front will sit...

    Thank you. I'm not the best at metal work you just need to do it. Everything takes me forever and most stuff I have to do more than once to get it right.

    I am awful about keeping this stuff updated. The frame rails are boxed and the drivers rear quarter is hung. I'm working on the passenger quarter now. The drivers quarter will need more metal work to be finished but that is going to be after the wheel tubs are in.

    Passenger wheel tub is out. It had thin spots all over so I decided to do complete tubs. My next step is to cap the frame so it is a box. The inside of the frame will also get some reinforcement where the new cross members will go.
