    Plum Crazy interior

    I'm doing a color change on my 70 Dart Custom and it's going to be Plum Crazy. Does the body color go inside on the top of the door panels and rear panels, or if the interior is going to be black just paint those parts black? I've seen a couple of pics on the web that has it done both ways. I...

    Looking to get a welder for the house

    I'm no expert but get by pretty well and I have been using the Eastwood 110v MIG with CO2/Ar mix for over 3 years with no problems. Feels a little cheap but performs well for the price. Also have their plasma cutter and after changing the flat tip out to a coned one, it's fine. I have used it...

    What color primer under Plum Crazy

    I guess that I should redefine "just" finished. I have already put the engine and wiring back in. It looks pretty good but just a little light compared to a couple of other examples that I have seen lately. I thought that someone may know what the factory had for primer under it. I did use...

    What color primer under Plum Crazy

    I used grey under the hood. I may have needed another coat but it looks pretty light to me. I thought about black to give it the deeper purple tone. I'm about to do the dash and interior so I will experiment.

    What color primer under Plum Crazy

    I just finished my engine bay with ss plum crazy from PPG. It looks a little light to me. What color primer should be used under the plum paint to get the proper finish shade?

    What would you give....

    Time to add some inexpensive HP

    Pick up a stock 360 manifold for $50 or less and an Edelbrock 1406 for $300. If you want a little better intake find a Eddy Performer. Consider an electronic ignition if it doesn't have one.

    Found a Source for 10” rear drums with 1-3/4” shoe

    I got a set from O'reilly a couple of weeks ago. Not sure on the part number but it was their brand. Had to order from warehouse but only took two days. They said 49.99 but negotiated price to 34.99 each.

    Brake pedal rod removal

    I feel like it should be simple but I can't get the pedal rod out of the master cylinder piston on my 1970 Dart. I'm replacing the mc drum/drum. What am I missing?

    Yep. The brown is not a bad color combo, but I'm getting input from my 15 year old son. He's just Plum Crazy about this Dart....Sorry I couldn't resist.

    The plan here is Plum Crazy with black stripe package and black hood. We are just trying to get her on the road for now. Looking to get the motor and trans back in there this weekend. I have thought about going ahead and painting under the hood before the motor goes in. Also, taking a chance...

    New to A Bodies

    Here's the only pic that I have on my phone. We did pull the motor and trans this weekend. It had a lot of blow by and I had the 318 and 904 out of my Challenger just sitting in the shop. I'm just wanting to get it running and driving for now but it's hard to not start taking parts off. This...

    New to A Bodies

    Thanks guys. I'm not much on the pics because most of my stuff is just "fence row junk" to most. I find myself to be better at dis-assembly than actually completing the project. I like to get it running and move on to the next treasure. I am 3 years into my Challenger rebuild, as anyone on...
