Thanks... I do for a living repair damaged cars mainly from insurance companies, this thing about american classic cars is just a hobby  I would like to restoring old cars for a living, but the cost for this type of work.......Not much customers are willing to pay the actual cost. Anyway just got the dart painted.. [attachment deleted by admin]

At the rate that car's going, give 'em another day and it'll be in the car   Youīve right. but we are waiting for parts to arrive from the US.. The engine i donīt know much about other than it fired right up and sounded GREAT  Run mid 10īs It was build in the early 90īs, but dont have many ours of driving. It is hi comp aprox 13.1, solid camshaft, roller rockers. We just gonna fresh it up with some paint, some gasked, new waterpump and valve covers.. If it was a Chevy we would tear it a part and rebuild it

ya, that is really coming along. Street car or drag car? with 13;1 compression it's gonna get expensive really fast. Just wanted to ask you about that tunnel ram intake. It looks really cool with the carbs turned, but in one pic(DSCF2945.JPG ) it looks like the carb mounting flanges are just tacked on. There must be some other way of sealing them?
Keep up the good work, If i had a day job like that I'd be in there all night too

The carb mounting flanges are welded from the inside, then machined. In Norway we have 98 octane pump fuel  , but i guess i will ad some octane boost too.. Me and my friend jonnydart got some more work done this weekend. We got the bumble stripe, vinyl roof, inner roof, and the frontend done. Here are some picīs [attachment deleted by admin]

Norway, Your Dart is coming along very nicely. I like the color combo with that black top and rump stripes. Can't help but notice though, you should put that fan/shroud to the inside of the radiator to be the most effective...
