New Amber Sherwood

[DARTLARRY]

I do not start threads very often here, but this is a special ocassion for me. I have had this car (1972 Dart Swinger) for 22 years, which is more than half of my life. My dad bought it for me when I was 18 years old, I always wanted to do the body and paint. My dad passed away 4 years ago, I am just sorry he could not see it today. Here are som pics, that do not do it justice. The color is the factory Amber Sherwood, which I think looks the best on Darts.

Beautiful job, dad's proud for sure! Put this in the "members restoration" forum

 

[DARTLARRY]

Thanks for the comments. I think it is classy too. I have to put the top on (green vinyl), install disc brakes, drop in motor, and 2000 other things before I am done.

Did you do the body work yourself or did somebody locally do it.

That color looks sweet!! You definitely need to put this in the members restoration forum so we can keep up with it.. I cant wait to see this car done.. And I agree with the others here, your dad is watching.. and hes proud.. nice job

 

[dustermaniac]

Awesome!!! Dad is proud of his son. Bet your bottom dollar he knows.

 

[DARTLARRY]

I had someone locally do the body and paint.I was going to try myself, I do not have the patience for it. I will assemble it myself though.
