After lying on my back under the car trying to remove undercoating, resting my arms frequently because they felt like they were going to fall off, I made a discovery. I was using my hammer drill to 'jackhammer' it off and that was working quite well. But, very tiring. Then I got the idea to...

After a year of thinking, measuring, reading, etc., I finally made the decision to go a different route with my 68 Dart. I ordered a Chris Allston complete welded chassis. They make a quality product and I'm very pleased with it. Prior to ordering, I did a complete front and rear end...

I have been trying to determine the correct front spindle/axle position for my 68 Dart since I foolishly took off all of the control arms and such and don't have them anymore. (Going to put a new clip in) When I went to the salvage yard to measure another 68 Dart that had the control...

I'm trying to figure out what wheels to buy and as I looked at them, I wondered what kind of torque loads they will take before / or if they fail? So I called a couple of vendors and basically the salesmen had no idea. I want to run my car at the strip and also have a street car that has...

Brand New Strange S60 Rear End with Brakes - $1400 This is a new Strange S60 rear end that’s never been in a car. It’s built with a hardened yoke, hardened axles and 5/8” lug shanks. In short, it’s made not to fail under high hp. I bought this intending to make my car an invincible...

Not Mine! Saw this on Las Vegas, NV Craigslist, St. George Utah http://lasvegas.craigslist.org/cto/2910484832.html

Does anyone have the official measurement from the center of the front wheel spindle to the front of the rocker panel? For a 68 Dart. I tore out all of the old stuff and got rid of it. Now I don't have a baseline. I'm going to get a complete chassis and set the car on top of it. From...

As I was grinding off the rust getting the car prepped I noticed that the metal for one of the upper control arm (uca) brackets had rusted so badly that the lower 1/2 inch of metal was very thin and has a pinhole rust through. I was quite bummed but at the same time, glad I discovered it. I...

In my (lack of) wisdom, I threw away one of the special washers that hold in the upper control arm of 67 - 69 Darts. Other years probably work also. Its the washer that has the oblong hole offset from the center. I only need one, I have the other three. If you have one, please let me...

Saw this on Las Vegas Craigslist for $30 thought someone might want it. ITS NOT MINE. http://lasvegas.craigslist.org/pts/2570507925.html

Has anyone replaced the hood hinges in a 67 - 69 Dart with some other model of hood hinge? I'd like to move them out of the fender well to the inside of the engine bay. With all of the models of cars out there, it seems there should be a good replacement hinge somewhere. I looked at past...

There was some talk recently about requiring pictures for items that are for sale. Since the picture subject is current, how about this. There ought to be a rule prohibiting large pictures of a person's car every time they post a thread or reply. I personally don't like looking at a huge...

I have a 68 Dart. I'm thinking of lengthening the wheelbase 2" so my rear slicks will center in the fenderwell. Was wondering if anyone has lengthened their wheelbase and if so, what were the issues.

I need to change the pistons in my 6.1. I need to get a Service Manual that shows the torque wrench values, etc. So far, the places I've looked into sell a DVD Service Manual for $285. I don't want to pay anywhere near that much. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Today I finished the front end disassembly of my '68 Dart. After getting rid of the Torsion bars and spindle assemblies and drum brakes, it was time for the Big Bertha K member to come out. I have to say, it took much persuading with a small sledge hammer and breaker bar, but finally all of the...

Today I pulled the 318 and transmission out of my '68 Dart. (Making way for the 6.1L I just bought. I did it by myself so it was a little touch n go. After 20 or so lift attempts and letting it back down again, I finally found the problem and cut off the driver side header. The starter was...
