    Shifted my plan and decided to keep the SBP wheels Kelsey Hayes brakes. Front end rebuild and disc brakes should improve the ride a bit. Hope to have it back on the road next week.

    1970 Dart Restoration

    The body and paint was done by Nick’s Customs. It’s was a one person business so it was great to deal directly with the person doing the work. Nick was great, the reason I went to him was his quality and he super excited to paint the Dart.

    1970 Dart Restoration

    Found someone local who was selling 73-76 spindles. They are a bit rusty being from an Ontario car but with a bit of work they will clean up well.

    1970 Dart Restoration

    It’s been a while since posting an update. Here’s some shots of the Dart with finished paint. Still lots to do, brakes and steering probably should have been done first but glad it could get it for paint when I did. Finding a good and affordable bodyman is no easy task and I am pretty happy with...

    Thanks, I think I have looked at this picture at least 50 times today. Can’t wait to get the project home for the finishing touches. Paint looks so good I won’t be able to stick the old chrome bumpers back on it.

    Getting closer. Some final touches on the hood and the bodywork will be ready for final paint. I can’t believe how the colour looks. We’re pumped to see the rest of the car blue.

    The engine is bolted in place and turns over. Just have to get the fuel pump in, wire up the coil, tidy up the plug wires, fill it with coolant, etc, etc........ Another great day with my dad and son working on the family project. We are really lucky Nick, our bodyman, allows us to work at his...

    1970 Dart Restoration

    Cleaned up the engine this morning. Will have to take the valve covers and do some more work to strip them down. Tried Duplicolor paint and it was three different colours coming out of the same can. Shook it like crazy and it would change from a very dark blue to a really light blue. Doesn’t...

    Cleaned up one of the exhaust manifolds today. Hopefully will be able to get to the second one tomorrow. Has anyone used high temp paint on these before? There is a colour that looks like cast iron.

    Inner fenders

    Thanks for this thread. Do the bumper brackets get painted black or body colour? What about undercoating the inner fender, was this done at the factory?

    1970 Dart Restoration

    Checked on the Body and paint progress. It’s been block sanded and the car looks straighter than it would have come out of the factory. Started stripping down the engine for detailing. Got the water pump pull in primer and a bunch of other parts to blast and paint. Have some work in front of...

    1970 Dart Restoration

    Well it pretty much looks the same as a month ago but the car is moving closer to getting a splash of paint on it. It has been a tough choice to pick a colour as there are so many good options out there. It was going to be lime green, go mango, a cool green yellow then finally landed on a...

    1970 Dart Restoration

    Here is the car in primer. We brought over the original steel wheels so the rallies don't get over-spray on them. They are likely the original tires that came with the car, bias ply tires that are so weather checked they no longer hold air. My dad fitted them with some inner-tubes so they...

    1970 Dart Restoration

    Pulling the engine and stripping down the Dart I want the engine compartment painted the same as the body colour. We decided to pull the engine for detailing and give the bodyman the room to work and clean up the engine compartment.
