Re: Welcome retuning member - '65 Plymouth Belvedere II / '65 Valiant Signet convertible



Mark, my dart has gone thru many changes.  I redid under the hood and removed all if the surface rust.  Put a base of the rustbuster silver, and then their black on top.  Will plann to sand the brush mars smooth when I get to body work and paint.

I rebuilt the engine in 2011.  Egge 030 10.5:1 pistons, racer brown st-1 cam.  Runs quite well.  Had bearing issueas about 500 miles into the breakin and replaced the crank and bearings at that time.

In january I installed an 8 3/4 a body rear and superstock springs.  I will be switching those back to the original hd springs I took off sometime this summer.  Makes for too rough of a ride.  Those SS springs will end up on the 66 170. 

The next plans are for floors and trunk.  The 66 270 parts donor car has immaculate flooring to put in my dart.  Weld cutting and fitting et all will begin once I get them to the house.

After floors and trunk, the body work will begin, probabbly continue it into next year before getting it painted.  After that will be the interior, probably a year or so out based on budget....

Always fun!!

-Tom
