62-65 Car show

[Darter6]

I wanna call this one my "Crusty Classic" But now I'm thinking of "Used Parts"
Built from a parts car that I just couldn't part out. Figured I'd make it a "Just for Fun" cruiser.

negative,,using hedman race headers for the 32-65 cars,,similar to hookers but they fit..installing 3 piece headers is like a header install vacation...1 tube/set at a time,great!

My 64 Savoy, under construction at the time, full CM cage and tubed.
The grill is not out of wack just the way the pic was taken

My brother and I put the car back together Saturday evening and a couple other tweaks Sunday. I actually drove it around for about an hour on Sunday afternoon for my first real time of driving it. Unfortunately , my brother told me the cam and cylinder walls are not in very good shape. So a new motor will be needed in the future. For the condition it’s in it runs pretty strong still. He’s having the alignment shop straighten the steering wheel and it’s pulling right still. Hopefully I can drive it home tomorrow and unfortunately probably put in up for the winter. Depends on if we get salt on the road Wednesday or Thursday. Needs a good cleaning too. Got really dusty in the shop.

Like those seats. At MIR the other week I talked with a guy who put Sebring convertible seats in his 67 Belvedere. They had the shoulder belt routed in the seat back. Looked great!

After 3 decades and many 2 doors I first more door!! 62 Dart 330. Got rid of the rust, single stage urethane, not perfect but neither am I.. it will just be a fun cruiser. Trading for a poly 318 when I ever get away to go after it.
