Yeah man, nice project! Keep the updates coming. What are your plans?

 

[kev86]

here are some more pics.this is it so far ,my plans?euhm..a good rust free roadrunner ,then a nice orange paint with a black hood,maybe torque thrust wheels,replace the original dash with some 'mopar' autometers.the engine is a 383,so it will be cleaned and build up again.and maybe on the rear fenders black stickers with 'plymouth' ,and a compleet new bushing set on the front and rear.energy suspension will do ;) it has a 8 3/4 axle.

Sorry if I missed them, but don't forget the subframe connectors. I used the US Cartools. Car looks great!

 

[kev86]

hey guys thx for the good feedback!,it's been a couple of weeks sind my last post, if been very busy with the roadrunner,welded the left side deck filler and trunk gutter to! and painted a primer the upper inside off the trunk forward towards the rear bench seat,i would say the rear of the car is finished!! no more welding. finally i never tought it tooks soooo long :no:,well now for the update,after all that welding i tought the doors won't fit anymore :confused2:
so yesterday i put the doors back in to the car and pray they fit,and yess!! the doors still fit!:hello2:,now my next step is the drivers compartment,and the front of the car, next week order the subframe connectors (laser cut) like DENNIS H told,he was correct to order them


so then i can weld them in,and paint the undercarriage like i did on the back off the car,the next step will be the torsion bars and front-end but it will take a few weeks,i will post some more pics next week.cya

Those laser-cut frame connectors won't sit perfectly in the floor grooves, you're going to be modifying them a lot...at least mine didn't and I had to on my set, but, it's a great start for sure -- the template provided! Good luck!

Nice work, it's looking really good and I think orange is a great choice.

X2 on the work. I think orange is a good color choice too for some reason.
