Kinda like an elephant graveyard for 65 Darts !

I'm starting to think 65 Darts were made in Sweden! '=) Merry Christmas.

OK, so when I cranked the motor the other day, the ammeter reads discharge, after looking at the wiring diagram, there's really no way to explain this unless I hooked the ammeter wires up backwards, and I was positive I didn't, after looking at the wiring diagram for the 65 Dart again, I pulled...

I installed the new instrument cluster and steering column, BUT ( there's always a BUT), Got the motor cranked and running and noticed the ammeter is discharging, one of the two lugs on the back of circuit board for the ammeter on the back of the cluster bezel clearly is labeled RED, and that's...

And I wish My 4 speed was a driver.

Sure, lemme know when your coming this way, I buy Ya lunch.

Probably use black to cover up some crap, I think it should be body color Myself.

Oh, I'm in Covington, about 35 miles from ATL down 20 east.

Thanks for the info, is there a live 5 volts on the lug? I wish I taken a better look when I had it apart. I looked and looked for a second hole for the other clip but never found one, weird setup, don't Ya think?, anyway I didn't want to button things up without knowing what it was and where it...

Picture #1. While installing the instrument cluster I noticed the spring looking contraption, it looks like it may be a grounding lug/strap,spring, does anyone know anything about this thing? Pic #2. I also found this under the instrument cluster area, can't remember if it was on a ledge of...

Removed the dash pad, never had so much fun (not). I have a dash cap to install over the pad, couple of cracks in the pad, but this is the time to do it if it's gonna get done. Please read and it may save someone the same sorta grief I ran into. After removing the pad I test fit the cap over it...

Well ol' Gumby got most of the cracks in the steering wheel taken care of and got it painted, ain't perfect but then again I ain't building an "Ulf car". I have several choices of horn ring and center emblems to choose from, I know the 64 emblems aren't correct for this car, but I really do...

Man, what a sad sight, ol' slanty left to rust by it's self.

Damm, Saweeeet !

Thanks, already talked to him, just need to figure out the payment thingy, it'll happen today, thanks again for the info.

Well Gumby (the dude with two club hands) is gonna replace the upper bearing in the steering column while it's out, and it's out because when the car got here it had 1/2 round of play in the steering wheel! The 1/2 round of play will occur if there are no shoes, spring, seal,and retainer in...

As Bob Barker used to say, "come'on down", course Rusty's livin', LOL "downtown" if there is sucha thing in Cornfield County, since they foreclosed on his 3/8 bedroom Teepee !

As they say "let the journey begin", and I know what ya'll be thinkin', if He's this OCD, he'll never ever live long enough to drive it anyway ! :-)

Got the instrument panel yesterday, repainted the gauge and speedo hands and dry fitted the gauge cluster into the new panel, tomorrow I'll start on the Steering column, the bottom of the tube was so banged and out of round that the seal wouldn't fit, I had to take it to a muffler shop to have...

Gotcha ! :-)

It ain't a Camaro, so don't waste your time coming up here trying to lowball Me !

It's paint, just to much for me to deal with and try to change, limited space/time/budget, gotta run now Mr. Grip, gotta get some lotto tics so I can make You an incredible offer on that stunning Dart Ya dun put together, Your a man of many talents, hats off to Ya.

My ex calls him, Her *****, and He don't say nuffin'

Ya know, I was dusting the motor off today and piddlin', I thought the same thing! :-) The only black engine bays should be on black cars, IMHO. It's like looking into the black hole of Calcutta, or my ex's heart, samo-samo.

Here's what I have to work with. 65 GT originally a S6, guess a 3 or 4 speed on the floor (has the hump), manual steering and brakes, looks like a disk conversion on the front and dual MC, hideous install, guess it will do for now. now has a 79 360, Eddy performer and Carter Comp series carb...

Who said Ya can't polish a turd? nice job.

Well, if Your wife looks anything like that beautiful little girl sitting on the floor, think I might not have dragged that great car home and took a chance, nice lookin' kids, and the boy looks like he's really into it !

So You said You have two more years of dental school? hell, I should put You in touch with My ex, she'll show Ya how to torture people in 2 minute's, trust Me, I know! By the way, I like the car, nice score !

All in all, coulda been worse, coulda been leaving the show and in the dark ! see, there's always a silver lining :-)
