Pete, no sorry born and raised on the East Coast. I have visited Ontario a few times, outside of the city it is a Beautiful Province!!

I figure I might as well let everyone know that I do not plan to leave the exhaust sticking out as far as it is. I have ordered a pair of chrome exhaust tips and will trim the exhaust back to where it should be when I can measure how much to cut off to get the tips in their proper location. I...

I kinda like the look of the factory rims. I have got too much $$$ into them now with the new center caps ( $165 ), and beauty rings ( $150 ).

Well it's been a long road but I can finally start to see the end. I have to get her inspected, then I can get her Registered, and finally be able to drive her. This car has consumed 5 years of my life and countless $$$. I say I can see the end, but I am beginning to realize that there will...

I got the color scheme two years ago when i was at a local car show.There was a green/black swinger there with the same paint scheme, and after seeing it I decided that I liked it.Sorry to hear you don't agree, do you have any input as to what you think would look better???The car is by no means...

Jack, I can't wait to be able to cruz up town.I don't think we will be able to scare too many people as they will hear us coming before thet see us and those who can't hear us will certainly SEE ME COMING ( hope they have their sunglasses ),LOL!!!

I have been slowly putting the Dart back together.I have installed the windshield/rear window trim,door handles/locks,headlights, and sat my dual scoops on.It is mid winter here and i have no heat in my garage yet, so i will have to wait until the Canadian weather warms up ( april ),then I will...

The tires i have on it are staying for now.They are period correct for the car, and i got the wheels for free,i just sand blasted and painted them.As for the exhaust it is 2-1/2" flowmaster super 40 series.

The guy who painted it this time has had it for months.When he took it we made an agreement that he would work on it when he had slow times in his shop, as he operates a collision shop and that is where his bread and butter was.After losing $1000. to the first paint shop, he agreed to paint it...

:cheers:Hey Folks, I finally got my old Dart back from paint!!!! There were no issues this time around, this guy did a good job, it's not perfect, but it looks much better than it did last time.After all i went through with getting this car painted, i am just glad that it is finally home in my...

Sorry you had such sh#$@y luck.I ordered mine and sent the money first and he sent them to me within two weeks.He seemed legit when I dealt with him.Again sorry to hear about your luck. I think I paid around $200 dollars and I had them ceramic coated buy Stew's buffing and polishing for $300.I...

Hey Jack, The fellow painting my car this time is Scott Trites of Scott's Autobody.We made a deal to get it done last year.It is finally in his shop (the old DOUG'S AUTOBODY SHOP ),he worked at Downey's for 20 years and has a really good reputation.I feel confident it will be right this time.I...

I have had a little sit down with the fellow who owns the shop that my car is at.We discussed how my car has got to be in the state that it is in.We both agreed that the mess that was made was the result of a poor craftsman(the idiot who first painted my car).We have decided to move onward,the...

Well there is some progress on the car although,I am not sure of how it is going to turn out.The guy who is painting it thinks that to get it right i will have to get new fenders,doors,and quarters and spend 10000 dollars.I think he is crazy,I had 4 painters look at it( All who did not have the...

Well now I am really screwed!The guy that was painting my Dart Quit working for the guy who owns the shop.The car is down to 90% bare metal!!!!Over the past two weeks he has not done much to the car,and now he Quit.When he stripped the car he used aircraft stripper and even though he was...

QWKSLVR, I hope to be able to take it to the nat's this year but there has been a problem with the paint.When the painter painted it the first time he did not use the clear that was supposed to be used with the base,It looked good when it was sprayed,but went flat after drying.Then he decided...

If any of you local guys are interested or know of anyone who may be i have a set of buckets minus seat tracks out of a 73 duster that i would like to sell (250),they need to be recovered.And i also have a set of aftermarket ram air hood scoops(150) that i dont need.Let me know.

johnny dart,I had my painter paint all of the decals on.I came up with the design of the hood.I am going to have a set of functional ram air hood scoops installed and painted the yellow body color so they will stand out nice.I will post some pics when i get them installed.

70'dart,I am sorry to hear that your health is not good.I hope you have a speedy recovery.I located my dart in Saint John, from it's original owner.It had sat in a heated garage since 1983 or 22 years until i got it.There was not a hole in the body anywhere. One of the torsion bar sockets had...

I took my car to a local sandblasting shop.I stripped the interior and all exterior parts and had them blast the underside of the car as well as the inside floors ,engine bay,and trunk.The cost was only $125 including epoxy primer.This was a very good deal and they had it completed in three...
