Hi A body fans, Here is some pics of my buddies '69 Dart, he has me doing a RestoMod on. The 1st shot is how it arrived, and the rest are where its at today. His name is Woody and he has owned it for 23 years. I have been trapped inside the garage with this Dart all Fall, Winter and Spring doing the alterations and bodywork.
Here the build sheet HiLights:
* Strip to bare metal and do bodywork
* Mini-tubbed wheel wells - 14-1/2" wide!!
* 2x3x.120 Subframe connectors - custom fit along floor
* Removed rain gutters - (big pain in the ***)
* Full AlterKtion frontend w/Red Wilwood drilled/slotted
* 2010 6.1 Hemi crate motor (Bouchillon Performance)
* Stage II chip in computer - 480HP at flywheel
* RAM 545RFE 5 speed auto transmission w/ 2600 stall
* Transmission from PATC in Louisiana
* Removed leaf springs - Added triangulated 4-Link bars
* 8-3/4" Mopar rearend -4" Moser axles w/fresh3:73posi
* Matching rear Wilwood disc brakes w/emergency brake
* 18" x 9.5" Wheel Vintque rear wheel w/Falken rubber

We were asked by local Mopar parts guy Russ Green to take Woody's Dart out to Mopar Day at Woodburn Dragstrip Sunday, so we threw it all back together and had a great time with all the local Mopar fans giving us props for a job well done so far.

Take a look at the progress pics and tell us what you think.
