Checking out the Barrett Jackson auction on TV yesterday. They sold this pink 70 Swinger. I was kind of shocked that this car went for $59,000. My friend can't get near that number with an original, restored, big block, 4-speed GTS. 1970 DODGE DART SWINGER - Barrett-Jackson Auction Company -...

Hey I was wondering if anyone on here has any experience with Carolina Machine Engines (purchased a new engine, parts, etc.)? I am looking to buy an engine for my E-body project and I thought I would get some reviews on them before I decide to pull the trigger.

Since completing my Dart, it has never been driven in the rain. While not perfectly clean, the underside of the car is still "pretty clean." We are going out on our first multi-day trip this weekend for Carlisle, and it looks like there is at least a decent possibility that we may get some...

So I decided to hit up a local car show after I picked up my 69 Dart. Just to be clear up front, I did not build this car to win trophies. It is built to be a fun driver and a good conversation piece. As it is, I managed to win Editor's Pick anyway. This is the show organizer's Best in Show...

Well as we work towards the end of my project, we fired up my 69 Dart for the first time yesterday in two years. With the engine having sat for that long, I really wasn't sure what was going to happen. We found a couple of small leaks that will get addressed, but it sounds pretty good. This...

This week I had the opportunity to check off an item from my bucket list: a trip to Barrett Jackson in Scottsdale for the collector car auction. While it might not seem like a big deal to everyone, when you live on the East Coast and collector cars course through your blood, it is a big deal...

Today was the first real exciting day I have had with this project in almost two years. My car is going in for the first coat of primer this week. Decided to go ahead and pick my color. It is supposed to be V2-Hemi Orange, but it appears to have a slight hint of metal flake in it. Would that...

I am still trying to make up my mind on what shade of orange to paint my car because their are obviously a few. I thought maybe seeing some actual orange cars, instead of just looking at small paint chips or samples, would give me some better ideas. If you have an orange painted car (doesn't...

I was wondering how many people have had to pull the plug on a shop or body man when work was not getting done? I committed to this guy who I have paid to do the body work on my car about a year and a half ago. He does work out of his shop at home, and while he is a fantastic metal worker, it...

My 69 Dart is going to be painted Hemi Orange when the resto is done. Because it has a small block in it, the engine is going to be painted Chrysler red (it is red already). The car already has the Mopar Performance black valve covers and air cleaner cover. I plan to have Leanna powder coat...
