My 1st real A-body

-
The TTI head pipes fit pretty good. Had to do a little clearance work. Very few options on an A body with a 4-speed.

Built up some leaf springs.
Got the rear done for now. Car is mini tubed with inboard springs so later I'll narrow a C body rear and get wider rims. Then this rear in going in another car I have.
These are the MBM disc.
Has 742 case with 3.55 SG.

Got my dash finished up. I modified a nice 72 harness.
Head unit with 2 amps. Sub in the trunk.
Carpet, headliner and shifter are in.
I'm using the 72-4 E body sport wheel. Can see all the gauges. Wanted to use a Tuff wheel but not with the 16:1 manual box.
The dash pad and arm rest are from Bob at ABCMoparts. Nice stuff.

Got plates and insurance so getting close to driving it.
So I just need to install the W/S and rear glass. Finish the exhaust and get some rear tires and I'm driving it.
Still trying to decide what I want for buckets. Have 70-1 and 71-2 sets but thinking I want later model seats. Something real nice.
Have learned a lot from the great people on here.

This weekend I installed the fender strut bars from a 75 Dart.
Also changed out the biscuit style tranny mount to this big O' honkin spool mount.
Not much "correct" about this 72 Dart.
