is to buy the 74 swinger body i have for 1500.00,have it shipped up there,and then get started

And i need one for my 73-72 dart conversion!(Pm me if you have a cheap restorable one)Although i like my 71 darts grille too.

or have a pic of your car photoshopped with the colors you want put on so you can see if you like it.But of course,the light color always goes on first,then the dark color second.I personally like the light colors on top,because they are cooler.If your bothering having the car painted,or...

I am a professional paint and body technician.If that were my car,that looks as though it has just been painted,i would call the local paintless dent repair company.If you try to repair that dent yourself,and break the paint,then the only way to do it really correctly is to repaint the quarter...

I think it would be cool to mix a little old school,with some new school.Flat black with nice body work,and some all chrome,or chrome with black lip rims,in 17s or 18s.Anybody on here have a car like that yet?

use a sanding block,i use paint mixing sticks cut to about 5 inches long,the width of half a sheet of sand paper.Fold the sand paper around the paint stick/free$$$ block,that you have eye balled to be sure is flat and straight,and with plenty of water,go to sanding .I would recommend for...

yes,i have mine cut out,but unless you want to cut into the underhood frame considerably,youll have to run a 10,or 12 in aircleaner,like the mopar cast unit.There is room for a 14 inch hole,but a 14 inch aircleaner will not fit a 14 inch hole,lol.If the engine were centered you could cut the...

what does it take to make one of these functional on a dart?I imagine the indentation of the baracuda quater is not avalible alone?I like the way yours is done,but i threw away my original filler neck,and gas cap,because i wanted the whole set up from a baracuda for the 71 dart,lol

what kind/year grille?I can do the painting for ya,but if it is anodized aluminum grille,all i can do to the non painted areas is to sand the anodizing off,and polish it.You would have to polish the bare aluminum often if the car lives outside all the time,and about once every 2 or 3 months if...

if your only gonna buff the car after wet sanding once,you can buy a buffer from harbor freight tools for @50.00,they also offer remanned dewalt buffers when avalible for have the 300.00 new price.If your gonna buff a lot of cars,the varible speed dewalt is the only way to go.Ours is well over...

it might be easier sto swap over to the more popular 70-72 dart front clip styel,lots more fiberglass parts avalible for that body style.

dang!Once you mini tub an abody,sure makes 10 inch rims and 295s look small!I never realized it.I minutubbed a 70 340 dart,and fit 15/9.5 centerlines under the rear,with 7 inch backspace,29/12.50/15 micheythompson et streets.It was a tight fit,but a fairly cheap adjustable panhardbar kept the...

Just get the right size rims.I have 15x7(i think)ralleys,there custom made by somebody,small bolt pattern.Anyway,i have 255/70/15s on them,and i have 1/2 inch clearance from the wheel lip and a good 1 inch clearance between the springs and the tire.I havent measured the rims,because the tires...

yea,check the fender tag and youll know what it was!lol

www.breakstuffracing.com this guy does awsome work.Ive tried to email him to ask if he is a memeber here,but never gotten a reply.He turned a 76? dart slant six into a 70 340 clone,kind of,and it is awsome imo.It looked awsome as a slant six car once he got it painted and interior done.

if it is a good singlestage paint,a urethane,it should definitly be dry enough by today.Sand it with 2000 grit,wet of course,and buff away.I hope its not a metallic color or it will look motley after you sand and buff it.I only use single stage on straightcolors,non metallics.

theres not much on the market for 74 and newer year models.There popularity with the resto crowd hasnt caught on yet.A lot of stuff like weather strips,and side markers are the same as some older darts,and still avalible,but there are a lot of pieces that arent avalible yet also.mainly tail...

I worked at a hot rod shop that built fiberglass hot rods turn key www.claytoncustomcars.com so i can tell you,theres a lot of work involved with making nice pieces,that you want to show out in public.We had a nice gelcoat gun,fiberglass chopper/sprayer set up,and it was still a lot of...

All the crap you get for them isnt even close to begin with,and you have to fit it to a car that has smaller panel gaps than our beloved mopars.Thats why the guy dented the bottom of the nissan door,he had to jack it up to get the side skirts to fit under the door when closed.2 objects cant take...

But im really not surprised,i been at this game a long time,seen crap like that all my life.Cars done like that usually end up at my place,for me to have to fix.Then it really costs some cash.I can see $2500.00 worth of repair and fitment thats gotta be done to that car to make it right,not...

a freind of mine bought some of there hugger orange,and it wasnt even close,it was more like hemi orange without the metallic.Other than that,it seemed ok.We still had to shoot over it with dupont to get the correct color.

in short,no.I have looked at this companies paint myself,preferably the urethane and base clear.It would prob be ok to color a car out before putting some good stuff on top,if you are using a high dollar color like hemi orange or something,but i wouldnt use it for a top coat.Now the house of...

the grille is different,and the frony marker lights on the fenders are different.all else is the` same

i didnt know the special was the lowest of the low,Gabriel's 73 dart swinger is/was a special also,but it had aircondition,am/fm radio,and rubber floor covering.

Raptor is the product name,i think,made by upol.They have it in black,or tintable,with regular car paint.This product has a semi gloss,or better apperance,im gonna have some tinted hemi orange and do my floorpans,and trunk area with it.Of course,its not as thick as rhino liner,but its not ugly...

Ive decided i got to do a silver a body now for sure.Thanks!If you find any more,put them up

Im ready to see that nice looking orange motor in that awsome green car!Ive always liked the way those colors looked together,lol.Keep up the good work,its gonna be a sweet car.

For one,it makes the sandpaper last longer,wich save money.Wet sanding doesnt make dust that can get trapped in hidden places only to come out when you paint the car.Any time you wet sand,USE A SANDING BLOCK!It doesnt have to be an expensive block,i use regular paint paddles,or mixing...

Period!Id like to see more pics of it

Even though ive bought all my apint already,im seriously debating on painting my car viper silver,or something similar.The 72 dart above is one of the reasons i fell in love with darts,and why i bought mine.I saw it,or one very similar to it forsale on ebay a while back with a 451 stroker...
