thanks, well the first attempt at the center console with that grill cloth was a failure but got it right this time, just layed some fiber glass cloth down and put the hardner on it and let it sat over night, then stapled them to the sides of the console, not we got to cut the extra off add some layers, sand and paint

no thats not the actual car thats a 67 dart we got in the back yard, while the real dart is getting painted were using this one to build it out of, plus its a convertible so its easier to work in

Joe,

How much did the disk brake conversion cost? I'm wanting to put front disks on my car.


Eventually though... I'm going to put an Alter-K on it.


I think i remember reading you saying that you were going to paint the tail light bezels body color...? Personally, leave them chrome. TOO much of one color takes away. Just my 2 cents.

But hey, it's your car. Do whatever you want.

Green paint looks good
