Hi. After a few months of working on our Dart, I finally got her up and running. I went to fill her up, put 10 gallons in a mostly empty tank, and the nozzle clicked off and fuel started to overflow. I took a look under the car and fuel seems to be leaking from the rubber lines towards the top...

Hi all. I just rebuilt my 1920 and I am having some issues with the fast idle cam. I have reassembled and reinstalled the carb.

Hi everyone. This forum has been extremely helpful for a newbie. I have been working on my wife's 1970 Dart and have been banging my head on a wall now for a few weekends. I have replaced the ignition switch with a standard US-88 that I bought from Summit racing. The switch comes with an extra...

Hi guys, I have a 70 Dart that I am working on and the instrument bezel has seen better days. I want to replace it but can only find repo rally bezels. The 69 standard bezel looks identical to the one I have in my car. Will it fit? Anything I should be aware of? I have the standard 1970...

Hi all. I am working on getting my wife's Dart back in tip top shape. I need to order some interior pieces/repaint good ones and want to make sure I am getting the correct colors. The VIN doesn't seem to tell me this. Our VIN is: L - Dart A Body L - Low 23 - 2 Dr Hardtop C - 225 RG engine...

Hi guys. I am working on replacing the ignition switch on my wife's 70 Dart Swinger. I have removed the steering wheel, blinker assembly, and snap ring in order to remove the housing. It seems that the housing is stuck (bearing does not seem to be moving on the shaft) and I am concerned with...
