Thanks...I'll be PM'ing you shortly!

Ah man...that just about hits the mark!! It's just too damn far....I WILL seriously consider it however. Thanks Al!

Had a life goal to build a big cube, mini-tub, 67-69 Dart. Unfortunately, my health had other plans and I had to sell my no-rust 69 GTS 2 years ago along with 8 other collector cars. I'm back. I'm healthy, but I'm Dartless! I'm looking for a completed, partially completed, 67-69 Dart. I'm...

Well, I typically finish everything I ever started...but life had other plans for my Dart. I had to say goodbye to my 2-owner 69 GTS 340 due to a health diagnosis I received shortly after buying it! I also said goodbye to 6 other cars in my collection. Funny how life works. But I'm back now...

Nice work...that's a fun project!! Ted

Well it's time to get this restoration going. Car will come into my shop next weekend. I'll pull the driveline and prepare to install the mini-tubs and narrow the rear. Then I'll gut the interior and prep the car for paint back to the original Y2 Sunfire Yellow. Pulling the driveline will...

If my 4 month search helps...I think you need to ask yourself ONE question; Do I want to buy a car that I can't tinker with for fear of losing value or one that I can mod into something I really want but don't want to pay someone else to build? Once you have that answer, you know which market...

$100k for a factory built "gasser". Sounds reasonable to me!!

VERY NICE job!! Thanks for your time posting pictures and taking us through the build! There's a lot of great reads on the web about vacuum and engines.

lol. funny you should post here. Your car was one of the cars that swayed my decision to do what I'm doing! These are the wheels I'm going with. I kinda like them since they fit in a classic/prostreet kinda way? Also, the car will be F2 Sunfire Yellow so I'm thinking the gray will...

Ok. Made some moves. Bought wheels/tires. Went with 15x10's and 15x5's. 325-50-15 on the rear and 195-65-15 on the front. MIGHT be able to mod some fender well headers to clear with that front tire combo. But with the rear tire/wheel set, I can now make plans for the mini-tub and see what...

Anybody ever get a set of the D452's on a Dart BB??

Thanks! That's a fine ride you have there and one heck of a project! Very nicely done....all of it!! Yes, I'm so confused...even buying wheels/tires. But I'll hit the ground running this fall. I mean I know zip about Mopars so I really need this time to ballast back and forth. I'm just...

I have an Everlast 250EX. Had it for 8 years now. Probably use it 2x's a year..lol. My buds borrowed it when their shop Lincoln square wave 300 broke down and said it worked great.

Ok. Back to the BB we go. TTI Headers it is. I can still do a pretty decent sized stroker without sacrificing much HP due to header restriction. I'm filling in the fender well holes. I mean who DOESN'T want a big block?? It's on my bucket list, ok? I'm going to drive this thing around...

Don't laugh...I bought one of these for work since we were in a pinch on a project requiring small stuff. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01I6O8ANU/?tag=joeychgo-20 This thing kicks ***. My hardcore welders love it and they have only used big red and big blue for 30 years. It's not an...

...so now I'm thinking of dumping the 440, fixing the holes in the fenders when I do the restoration and just building a wild-assed SB stroker. I get everything that way. Tire clearance, header choices without compromise, no holes in fender, cooler under-hood temps and less weight on the front...

Moving a car through brokers is the cheapest....but it's REALLY hit/miss on timing. Do some research on a REALISTIC price to do what you want and if a broker offers way less, walk away. Truckers will get their price or, if desperate will take a low-ball..see my first sentence! There is no...

Yup, more pics coming as I make decisions. Yes, the TTI's are great from what I've read but I guess my only negative is no power steering and it's still a PITA to get to plugs and work on stuff. I'm a-lookin' and a learnin'. Kinda admire the nostalgia side of the fender well headers. If I...

Thanks, seen some mention of them. But they appear to be out-of-business? Also, mad dog headers is another option but they also seem to be NLA. Searching, searching searching.....

Ok...time to get serious. My next move needs to be to decide fender well headers or not. I want to buy tires/wheels but I cannot define that combo until I make the header decision. EVERYTHING depends on that choice. I mean no use doing bodywork and repairing the holes in the inner fenders if...

Yup. Read that too. Sounds like fun.

Nice!!!

No lie, I had to search on the Green Brick. But no, I'm not going to turn my GTS into a canyon cruiser.

LOL!! My kind of music too! And thanks for saying "bimmers" and not "beamers". That bothers some fanatics....not me. Funny you should mention this...I'm pretty involved with road racing here on the east coast and up to last year, raced 10-12 events with my BMW's. I also drive a sprint car...

Thanks for the observation...I'll unscrew the GM door locks as soon as I get home..LOL!! I just don't know that stuff...yet. Yes, car is original 340 auto GTS...converted to BB 440 with some decent CI heads, DC cam. Excellent drive-line mods.

Pics added..along with some comments!!

Uhm, negative! PA has the most expensive gas tax in the nation..LOL! $.13/gal higher than NY. I don't know if you lived here when this happened but they jacked the gas tax and said it would lower property taxes. It didn't. Then they sold the turnpike so it would lower property taxes. It...

Nice Dart Doc!! Looks like you scored some nice goodies as well. Down the slippery slope of car-modding we go. Soon, finding time to work on it will be like pulling teeth! Enjoy, Ted

Thanks!! Yeah, as long as you don't buy gas here, we're good!! Some updates, I'm headed to Carlisle and see if I can pick up a few things. I need a new carpet. Old one really isn't bad but for some reason, it was cut WAY short of the firewall/bulkhead of the car? Don't know why. But going...
