Well im posting this for a good friend of mine. he asked me to post it up and see what the Quad City area thought
Car originally started as a 67 dart and after some consideration he decided to convert it to 68 specs. Car has fiberglass front fenders, hood, trunk lid and bumpers. He then shot it himself 02 viper red.
After body was pretty done he decided to tackle the suspension and brakes and order a Dana 60 complete from moser and some caltracs for rear suspension. Rancho 9000 shocks and Caltracs 90/10 for front struts. Then ordered Wilwood dynalite brakes front and rear.
Power train:
FAST standalone efi
Edelbrock pro flow xt intake
Edelbrock 90mm throttle body
FAST 95# injectors
Borg Warner s400. Custom build
Forward flipped manifolds with v bands added
Electric water pump
Power master 130 amp alt
FAST billet distributor
15 gal aluminum fuel cell
Magnafuel pro 625 fuel pump
He also had a custom dash made to hold the array of Autometer gauges Thanks (Tim 65svtfastback) and picked up a set of original A100 van seats to give it that 68 hemi dart feeling
Start of the turbo mount
Some finshing touches before getting it welded in
Welded in and ready for the turbo
Finally got the turbo munted
Started mocking up the manifold cut the ends off to have the V-Bands welded on
Driver side
Passenger Side
Pardon the crappy welds was experimenting with welding on the cast iron has all been fixed and v-banded now
Down Pipe 5" reduced to 4"
Mocking of the intake
Getting the Dana 60 and the caltracs and the roll bar buttoned up for fitment before paint
26" tire on a 6.5 b.s have since decided to go 28" tall on 7.5 b.s
Roll Cage
Fitting thr 68 taillights
and PAINT
Started to mock up some final stuff for final installation
A100 seats installed
Strange manual master cylinder
Some final engine mockup on the mock up block. going to indiianapolis this weekend to get a block for the build
