This is going to be a picture heavy thread. I bought this 64 Dart with a 170 slant 6 3 on the tree when I was 16. It was my daily driver all the way up until my senior year of high school.
This is the day My dad and I brought it home.

We did a lot of body work to it after school, and on the weekends for a few months. (yes I drove it to work and school looking like this)

After a few weeks, we finally got to paint it. It looked pretty good, and I drove it for a while happy with it.

Then I got a new car, and the dart was taken off the road. It took along time (a few years), but I finally decided I wanted to redo the paint, and swap in a v8 into. After collecting all the required swap parts, slowly but surely. It was time to start!
First some more body work!

I put in an 8 3/4, and my dad turned the three on the tree to a floor shift.
