I didn't have any body color paint and leaving them white would have looked odd to me. I'm probably going to matte black the center of the hood so they will blend better then. I was torn on the decision to silver some of the grill. I actually had the paint in my hand from painting the turn...

you guys not feeling the black?

Just saw this. http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=205942 is the build thread. You can click my name and search by "Threads started by" and find a few more threads on it. I appreciate the compliment. Wheels are covered in the thread 245/45/17 on mustang wheels. There is...

Presto Chango.. First time using plastidip. I made a few mistakes that I'll go back and fix. I learned that you need to pull the tape while the dip is still wet to get a crisp line. I also didn't get the rood as uniform as I'd like. I'll hit again later but it's good enough for now. Took 5...

White Scoops After a round of Plastidip Plan is to change everything that is white to black. Finally disassembled enough to get the grill out. I'm going to take this chance to adjust the driver side bumper mount to get it back in the right spot. I hit it with Simple Green and a...

Round 2: Figured out I had to take out the head light buckets to gain relatively easy access to the bumper bolts. Grill and healthy surround received a primer coat today. Not sure how much weekend progress I'll make though. Finding out tomorrow if the baby on the way is a boy or girl. :)

Car-1 me-0. Plan-remove grill and prep for paint. Results- remove normal amount of Phillip screws and attempt removal only to find 3 additional screws that must have been installed by a double jointed midget. "I think we call them little people now" .. remove headlights to allow access with...

I ordered these from summit. The brackets were usable but not at all plug and play. The seats are very nice and have gotten compliments from every who's seen them in person

I ordered Crackedback's headlight mod http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=216514. Results are way better than I had even hoped! Before I didn't drive the car at night much because the headlights were so dim. Now it feels like driving a modern vehicle. The lights are very bright...

I didn't but don't seeing too bad when they go on.

Seats are in. They sit a little high for me. I can't lower the front due to a floor hump so I'm going to try lowering the back to see if it's comfortable. I like to sit in a seat rather than on it anyway. If that doesn't work it won't be too hard to trim one or two slots off one corner of the...

The dynamat is worth the effort. The headlights are absolute garbage. I have crackedback's wiring harness now so I'm going to try out a sealed beam again. If I need brighter I've heard good things about the led 7" housings. New seats are in. I think they look nice. But are a little high. If the...

New seats and brackets showed up. The brackets didn't match the floor holes or humps at all. I sorted it out using a longer bolt and using an extra nut. Now the Driver side bracket sits perfectly level and is adjustable. Now that I've figured out how to do it the passenger side should go...

More work on the Dart today. The trunk was pretty grungy and I figured the rest of the interior was the same under the carpet. Step 1 - Wire brush everything to loosen crud and vacuum Step 2 - Simple Green and wipe down floor Step 3 - Rust Converter to help out with surface oxidation Step 4...

Found out the cause was a neutral balanced converter & busted trans mount. Supposed to be a weighted converter on these external balanced 360s. A weighted flex plate and new trans mount fixed about 95% of the problem. Now the only vibration is very light at hwy speeds. This nice cool weather...

Bullits off of my 2003 Mustang. There is a ton of info on guys running them in a thread on here.

Problem 1- Oscillating vibration at Hwy speeds plus shuddering when first moving from a stop. Suspected cause - Busted trans mount + solid motor mounts Solution - New rubber motor and trans mount + Schumacher Torque Strap. Will report back once parts are installed. I'm looking forward to not...

I reached a point I was happy with on the 72 Duster and sold it. I picked it up as a barely running carport space taker upper and with lots of help from you guys and a little effort brought it back to a dependable cruiser. Beginning - End - I learned a lot during the process and wanted to...

I spent a little over $50k on the last car that topped out at $20k when it was time to sell. It would take that to replicate the car, but at the end of the day it's only worth what it's worth. My plan is to keep this project pretty close to what it's worth. I'll probably spend close to $15K. I...
