Youre right, any motor depends on the heads/cam, I gotta start researching small block heads lol

Just went threw your whole build, love it! you do some awesome work! I was debating on taking out my smallblock and going to a bick block but I think you have just inspired me to keep it!

Specs I found on here, used the second line down, handles/rides awesome!

Front

On the alignment rack

Got the carpet finished although I need door sill trim. Installed the new front suspension and rear sway bar/ leaf springs off to the alignment shop!

Finished the install, now I have to figure out if I want to dump money into getting the factory gauges working or to go aftermarket....suggestions?

Made some progress, carpet is a lot greener than I thought. Screams70s! The picture really doesn't look as green as it is but I'm gonna go with the stock color on the body so I think it will work

Found a dress shoe behind the rear seat dated September 1975 lol. I also found a second build sheet which seemed odd because I found one behind the rear back rest jute padding and one under the rear seat pad sandwiched between the foam and seat springs.

Front

I coated the front and rear with rattle can duplicolor truck armor

Rear floor looked great

Ordered a new carpet but had to do some prep work for some surface rust, water damaged sound deadener, and moldy seat belts. The floors were in great shape minus some surface rust.

Thanks!

Just got a 72 hood for 80 bucks so I put on my 72 front end. Still need a bumper, and I might put on my 69 valiant grille but it's got some dings that need fixed. So now I have some 73 parts for sale!

Thanks guys! It is hard to decide with all the stuff you can do with a smallblock nowadays and since it's all set up for it. If I keep the smallblock I think I'll convert it to a manual trans. On the other hand I have a built big block in a torino and it's hard to beat the torque and feeling...

Sounds sweet, love 67-69 darts! Can't see the pics though, says your account is private....

Dash is in good shape except the fuel and temp gauges don't work lol. It's an (was) ac car and I have yet to figure out why it won't blow got air, blend doors move( can hear them), blower works and there wasn't anything in the heater core...am radio and fader knob work, even has a cabled hood popper

Original interior except for the insert in the front seat

Car still has the 73 nose on it that I blacked out. I want to find a 70-72 hood and bumper, I have the rest of the parts to convert the front to the 70-72 style or I also have an all metal 69 valiant grille

Bottom

I just installed mancini xhd leaf springs. Putting the front /6 k member back in with some Schumacher conversion mounts because the v8 one I bought turned out to be bent. Cleaned and painted it, picked up some PST quick ratio steering kit, sway bar and QA1 strut rods

Since I have moved and am no longer in a hurry, I'm starting into the suspension

....

Sorry only letting me do one pic per post for some reason....

Decided I needed to make the car one color so about $50 worth of rustoleum rattle can would do, again in a hurry:)

All installed.....

Cleaned up the motor, swapped out the 2 barrel carb and intake, the oil pan, valve covers, and painted it. The inside was clean no sludge even in the pan

Here's the van....15 passenger belonged to a church, the interior was like a time capsule!

Well I have been on here a while so I thought id post some pics of what I'm working on. It's a 73 scamp originally a /6 car that somehow my brother managed to ruin by persuading a rod through the side of the block while doing 70 down the freeway. The car sat around for a few years,changed hands...
