hello fabo. my 69 dart is going in for bodywork/paint......not a full resto but new full quarters/outer wheelhouse/trunk extensions and gts hood.
I did the interior /exterior dismantle but will leave the rest for a friend who has a bodyshop here in Kamloops.
I am working towards a gts clone/tribute but the 340 will have to wait for funds after bank account gets depleted following paint expenses.
the dart currently has slightly warmed 318 with 727 and 8 3/4 sure grip with 355 gears.
here are some images of progress so far...:coffee2:

What do you think of the fitment of the AMD panels? How did the fenders look?
Your resto looks great so far! Keep us updated.
 
according to the bodyman who did the quarters the panels were of very good quality but there was some extra time involved in getting them to fit in the area of the outerwheelhouse to the quarters,( due some distortion), but this was to be expected since this is a fairly large piece of metal
the actual bolt on panels (hood,front fenders )were of excellent quality
