I am about to finish disassembly of my dart for paint and I wanted to take the time off to focus on my brakes. I am wanting to switch over to a disc brake set up on the front and back, but I don't feel like buying conversion kit on ebay or anywhere else that uses parts from who knows. I wanted...

Yeah the two cars are just about the same in size.

I purchased 2 motors for this car and I had somebody offer me more than twice what I gave for them, so naturally I sold them. I am taking this as a sign to just sell the car off so that is what I am doing. I hate to just abandon a project but my 64 Dart is getting a little neglected.

I got the engine and trans pulled and ready to go today. I also noticed that I will have to get the frame repaired and reinforced. The last owner didn't box the frame for some reason and now it is twisted and cracking.

Width and height are good but I may have to alter the fire wall to fit for length. Also thank you for the heads up on the frame rail issue. I will be inspecting that first thing in the mourning.

I have seen worse bastard cars out there like a jaguar with a 350. The wasn't a matching car the engine was out of a Mercury. Trust me if it was a matching car I would restore it and sell it at a auction house.

I have a 64 Dodge Dart 270 I am working on as well. I have not been able to find things I need for that project so I am starting this one early.

Here it is my Ford Galaxie 500 XL Fastback. This car was free and a project from the get go. There is a 385 Series 429 Big Block in now that is going bye bye to make way for a 92 Cummins 12 Valve engine and trans. I have found everything for a great price so far so I am gonna work on it as I go...

I already found the engine and transmission I am gonna get it is out of a 92 truck and for everything I need of of it I am only gonna be into it for $689.32 I shopped around and I am picking it up used at a self serve a auto salvage.

I will be starting a restoration thread later tonight I have to finish cleaning it out and stuff. Then I am going to go picture crazy on it. Oh and about the stock HP a Cummins has, I know it isn't high but I never said it was gonna stay stock or single turbo. I am gonna go freaking nuts on this...

I figure it's my car, money, and imagination so why not. I am putting in a Cummins to one make it reliable and two so that it will have power and mpg.

I already went out and purchased 90% of the interior new from a swap meet in Tulsa Oklahoma. I also got a few other parts from LKQ Self Serve as well.

I live in Independence Kansas The engine and trans will be sold as a combo for $1,000. That will be just enough to cover the cost of a Cummins engine and trans.

I'm just selling the engine and transmission.

I agree with 75AbodEE find yourself a good manual on the motor your working on pick up a gasket set and go to town. As far as the heads go find a good Automotive machinist they can problem shoot heads quicker than most can. I have a rebuilt motor in my 64 Dart and it is jacked up the company...

It is the 385 series 429. I was told it was a 427 but when they said it came out of a 73 Mercury I knew something was a miss so I cross referenced the Weiand intake to find out the correct engine size. Either way it is going bye bye.

I used to like this site because everyone tried to help each other out and give praise for new ideas, but now it is getting as bad as the ford and chevy sites with the member slander.

I took some measurements and a 5.9 Cummins will fit with ease in the Galaxies engine bay. Despite all the unexpected nay saying I received I am gonna be moving forward with my Cummins powered 1968 Ford Galaxie 500XL Fastback. I wouldn't do it if I just intended to sell the vehicle upon...

Thank you oldmanmopar for your understanding and support! If possible could I use you as a information source in the future as I get closer to the engine installing. I already know that the suspension and brakes will need to be beefed up.

Here are some pics. The car is missing almost everything like I said it was a drag car so it was stripped and gutted.

It's a factory 390 Car the 427 came out of a 73 Mercury it was a drag car in springfield mo for a while.

Hello everyone I recently got a free 68 Galaxie 500 XL Fastback given to me by my inlaws. I know this is a Mopar forum but hear me out. The car currently has a 427 in it and I want to put in a 5.9 24Valve Cummins in it instead. I know I will need the motor mounts, engine wiring harness...

I am waiting for the mounting bracket to come back from the chrome shop. As far as finding these GM had a deal with marvel for a while to put them on the Cadillac in the 50's I think. Over in the U.K. they put these on the Judson Supercharger for VW Beetles. Depending on the glass size and shape...

I had some before pics but they got deleted off of my camera. I thought about putting it on my website to see how much I can get out of it.

The Amazing Marvel Mystery Inverse Oiler I got this off of a friend of mine a while back. When I got this it was so caked in oil and grease that you couldn't see any of the aluminum or glass. I got her all cleaned up and remade some gaskets and now she is pretty. I have no idea what year it is...

I finally got the bulk of the junk out of my dart what you see left is only 2% of what was in it before. I am gonna finish gutting out the interior in the mourning. Look under the dash and you can see the wiring nightmare I am looking at. If anyone out there has any idea of where I can get a...

Here are a few pics of my 64 Dart 270.

Any help on the wiring harness would be great. The last owner made his "Improvements" to the wiring and the brakes so now I am gonna give my dart the proper repairs in its original factory style.

After many years of looking and searching I finally got my my first Dart. It is a 64 coupe with the 3.7L 225 Slant 6. I am gonna need a complete wiring harness for it and the front bench seat and a few other things if anyone has any websites that might be of help let me know.
