Heres a couple of pics, the 67 Dart is in the body shop having a fresh quarter skin installed. I found a grille emblem from a local collector, with a little polish and some paint, I think it turned out nice. The 340 is getting a full rebuild with a 372 stroker kit and a .040 bore. When everything is done it should one mean little ride.

I have a 67 GT too. What a sweet car, you leaving it orange, or changing it up? That grill emblem is rare, and real clean... Mine sure doesnt look that nice, nice snag! Keep those pics coming.

Absolutely keeping it orange. The emblem was an unexpected find. I asked the man who had it for front signal lenses. We walked out into his lot and he picked up a whole grille minus the passenger side lens. I bought the whole thing. As far as the plans. Right now it's all about getting it back to 100%.
 

Shades of the past, I had one back years ago. It was maroon metallic, black bucket seat interior with a 273 4bbl & 727. I drove the wheels off of it until the block cracked. I found another 273, but it was cracked also. Finally bought a 360 out of a rolled cop car and installed it. I never finished it and ended up selling it to a kid in Pasadena TX with an orange pro streeted Demon. HHMMM, I wonder if it's still around?

It's almost done, I'm waiting for pistons and I need a set of heads. I'm thinking of buying from Aero Head. I may still go with the Edelbrock, but I'm trying to reign in the spending.
 
Nice Gerard....she's bringin' a tear to my eye. I miss her, but at the same time, love seeing her get the treatment she deserves! Post up some current pics when you can...
 
....also, I think I have the bumperettes for it too if you want them. Pay shipping and they are yours. I'll dig around, but I'm sure I have some other things too, Including the GT grill emblem! Wish I'd known you needed/wanted it on there....I'll check for other things.
 
Thanks! The engine is starting to come together now. My builder found a rotating assy. that will make the right compression. It'll be a 416 now instead of 372. I'll take more pics when it's in my garage.
