Just got back home from a week in Rockport. We lived in Corpus Christi (actually across the bridge in Portland) for 5 years. I would not recommend anything south of Corpus if you ask me. It is getting worse by the day near the border to the point the reps for major companies are not allowed...

Not a huge turn out? Don't know what I was expecting but not near as many cars as I figured would be there. Only took about 15 minutes to look at all of them.

If you need some A-body cars/parts car or parts. I have some in Amarillo that I am selling off.

Anyone here on the forum having a blue Dart painted on Camp Bowie? It is blue with white vinyl top and sitting outside the body shop. Looks really nice with fresh paint and new top!!

Any forum members planning to attend the DFW Swap Meet (3/28- 3/30) or Pate Swap Meet (4/25-4/27) looking for parts and/or A-body projects? I am planning to sell off quite a few parts, project cars and parts cars. I am planning to go up and start sorting through all of it and plan to list...

If you still need parts let me know. I have the parts (and a few parts cars) that I will sell. Cars and parts are located in Amarillo.

Anyone in/near Moriarty NM? Got a quick question.....please PM me.

There are a few in the DFW area and Houston. What do you need, or what are you looking for?

Looks like we have a painter!!!

Here is a picture. It is a column shift automatic.

Any other painters in the area? The painter that I really wanted to do the car has never shown up (3 missed appointments) to look at the car and now will not return calls. So back to the hunt.....painter wanted!! :)

My Dad bought it back in 2006 (maybe late 2005?), I can't remember exactly. We have been gathering parts for it since. Anyway, I figured I would post up here to see if anyone remembered the car and might know about it or where the #'s matching motor might be. The ole needle in a haystack.

Anyone here know of a Petty Blue 73 340 Dart Sport? The car is a project car that had 71 Demon style black stripes on the side and black center chrome modular wheels. The car also had a black center hood stripe. It was a blue bench seat interior. Car was in Arkansas prior to or around 2006...

Well it continues. I talked to someone that was really interested in working on the car. They made an appointment to take a look at the car. Never called, never showed up. Then the next time we spoke, made another appointment, no show.........

I hope so as well. LOL I plan to move in about 17-18 months. I might be buying a place with a nice shop behind the house. Then I will be burning the midnight oil trying it myself!!

I had 2 people set to come look at the car over the weekend. Never heard from either one over the weekend. I had another guy call last night and he is suppose to go look at it tonight. P.S. That 25k bid (in my opinion) was basically telling me that the shop did not want to mess with it...

Here is where it stands now... Nichols in Canyon said they will not do any restoration work AT ALL. Robertsons Body Shop wanted 25k (prep and paint only) Woody (highly recommended by 3-4 people) won't answer PM's or return my calls So I have a contacted a couple of people that are...

Well it will not be Robertson.....the bid ("now this is only an estimate so it could run over")..........25K............only to do the bodywork and paint. Keep in mind that the car is a Texas car and will not need any floor pan replacement, trunk floor replacement. The only metal replacement...

I have talked to a few people about finishing the car. I have been in contact with Larry Lyles and Robertson Body Shop. I am going to get one more bid from Woody. One of those three will likely finish the paint and body work.

Well after two nights of no sleep wondering what was going happen. I had to make the choice...I had the car removed from the 1st shop today. So the search continues.

...

Thanks to all those in the area for helping out. I have a couple of good leads to check into. Hopefully, by the end of the year I will know if the current shop is finishing or not. This is killing me!

Thanks Lance. I talked to Dallas about Nichols yesterday. Just trying to get a plan B in place in the event it comes to that. I know the current guy is doing all he can, just things beyond his control may prevent him from finishing it.

Hopefully the original bodyman/painter will finish the project. If not I may have to fly up to locate a shop to take in the project. I talked to one shop that can take it in the first part of March if it comes to that. If anyone has suggestions (or who not to use) on a shop, PLEASE let me...

Thanks, I hope someone there knows someone that is wanting some work!!

I am needing a Duster finished. The current place took the car apart, worked the doors, trunk lid, hood and drivers fender. It will need small patch panels on both lower 1/4's (I bought AMD patch panels). Then the car will need to be painted. Current bodyman/painter may not be able to complete...

Thanks! I lived there for a long time but moved away in 2002. I still keep my cars there and need someone to get some work done on one of them!

I am looking for a body shop or painter to work on a car for me in the Amarillo area. If you know of one please let me know. THANKS

There is a company in San Antonio called paintshop101 that seems to have a good reputation for quality,and a somewhat reasonable price.

Don't worry they all look better than my stuff! But I have from now on to make it look better. :)
