1967 Hemi GTX restoration

[hemidart1]

Very nice!

I just show red primer like hemidart1 did.

It may be on top of the dip overspray from exterior primer.

I've seen variations on gray dip color and LA plant used black dip. Just keeping open mind on this and going off what whatever the car you’re working on is showing you.

I’m slowly documenting this car. Uncovering cool gems like two X’s on rear of springs.

Steve, So this car is YOUR car ?

Yes.

Have you see red primer in various spots in these cars?

Ive seen it in worn exterior paint, but not so much on underside pieces

I'm fairly well versed, I have a 10,235 mile 66 HP2 that the bottom has never been touched upon..

As I detail clean my car I think there is some red primer is on top of the grey dip on surfaces that point to the outside. And it is overspray from the exterior primer put down before final paint color.

Dadsbee, do you have anything like this?

My car definitly has red primer under the exterior paint. You can see it on the very bottom of the driver side quarter panel where the factory missed the final exterior ZZ1 gold paint.

I'll have a better look at it when I move it back to the shop, after I get the Daughter's Mazda out of it's spot. Being a Silver car I doubt it got Red Primer..

My local NAPA had a rebuilt steering box in stock. Guy gave me a deal since nobody’s buying these anymore- $150
Date code is not right for my car- this one is 10-14-69
But for the price- can’t complain !

Stopping power !

Question for hemi dart1. I have seen two separate ways of putting filters in fuel line. One is a single gas filter between the fuel pump and alternator bracket. The other way involves to Mopar inline filters( one to each carb) after the main line splitter..which is OEM.

 

[hemidart1]

As far as I know the way I have it is correct with the two filters

 

[AR67GTX]

I believe they changed to a single filter between the pump and the “Y” fitting in later years. Not sure if it was 68 or 69.

Correct, dual filters as shown is 1966 and 1967

68 they went to a single vapor separator / filter mounted at the fuel pump

I had traces of blue and what looked like faded yellow. I did some searching and saw that blue and yellow was used along with blue and cream
