Started on pulling out my donor cars drivetrain today. Sorry forgot the cam! I’ll be back there next thursday and will take it with me then. Basically got the croosmember unbolted and pulled the engine mount bolts before I got rained out. A lightning storm had me running for cover!

I’ll post again on Friday!. Getting real excited now. But I learned a big lesson today. A sick 42 year old guy has no business laying under a car in the dirt and weeds,lol!!! The buddy Im getting the drivetrain from…

In the past I have always gone all the way when rebuilding a motor and sent the crank out with the block for machine work but with the slant for the 66 I am doing the bare minimum. I have a set of standard main and rod bearings coming and I just wanted to clean up the crank. So what would you use for a quick clean up if you were doing it yourself?

There are no grooves in the crank the only thing wrong with the bearings was 114,470 miles and a few were starting to wear out. The car also sat for…

So I was pulling nuts and bolts from my 400 donor C body today.

I was looking at the brakes. Those things are massive!!! Im wondering if the rotors and calipers could be adapted somehow to my 1970 Dart. I have both drum and disc spindles for sbp brakes.I dont believe the C body spindle will work but perhaps the rotors and hubs from the C body could be adapted to one of the spindles I have. I also need to change to bbp so this would kill 2 birds with one stone. I will be yanking all the…

I tested all components, i.e. Signal switch, horn ring etc. I found that if I hook a jumper wire directly to the steering shaft my horns will sound when button is pushed. If I just ground to sterring column housing they will not. Does this model dart have an internal ground in steering column? Does anyone have a exploded view of this column that may…

Ok, so I need another project like a need a hole in the head. But perusing Craigslist the other night I saw an ad for a ’71 Dart GT, so I had to check it out. Only 1255 (depending on who you ask) made after all. So I read the add, and the guy wants to part it out if there’s no takers!!! For me that’s pretty much the same as posting up a cute puppy that needs a home and then saying they’re going to shoot it tomorrow if no one comes!

So I went and took a look at it. Body is straighter than my…
