I bought a 73 Montego MX a month ago and just got it a couple weeks ago.
Great driver right now (92k miles). Put a couple hundred miles on it so far.
I'm not going to do a frame off like I did the 66 Chevy.

Got a new rear bumper and some other smaller parts. Put a dual exhaust on it.
Interior is pretty clean. Wheels and tires are perfect, so going to keep these on it. Rides like a dream.
Just going to remove most of the chrome (for paint), strip, bodywork and repaint. Should be done in about 2 months.

Been a year working on this for a client, getting her finished has taken a good anount of my time, but the money if paying for the truck restore so I have no complaints. The whiskey helps too. 1/96th scale (36" long)

I should mount the yards to the mast by first week november, and lash up the lifts, halyards and braces by 2nd. week November. I need to deliver it to Arkansas.

ryanroo · 10-28-2012, 10:25 AM

that thing is impressive!

ryanroo · 10-28-2012, 02:03 PM

I finally brought mine home. it has been sitting in the backyard at work for so long i think the fuel has gummed the injectors. not spraying any fuel. either that or the computer as totally gone the way of the water buffalo. first time on my trailer for the jeep, thanfully the fenders are sturdy because it is to wide to fit between!

My newest arrival; a 66 Dart GT. A buddy of mine picked this up as a complete car minus engine and stripped it out with the intent of making it an altered wheelbase nostalgia drag car. He lost interest thankfully before he started cutting and hacking, and now it is in my shop. My intent is to reassemble it as a real basic driver, then use it as a daily driver. 318, 904 auto, and real tall highway gears like 2.73s or 2.43s, and just enjoy driving a classic every day. Oh, my personal twist.....the front end from a 66 Valiant. Hopefully it will look a little like what a Barracuda sedan would have if it was ever made.....

The Dart as of now:

Once I get moved, and get a little Saturn project out of the way I can get started. I know, I know...it's a sickness.

Yes the Valiant did have curb feelers on all four corners,

good eye. The fenders I saved still have them attached I think, maybe finding their way onto the Dart........or maybe not......

And congrats on that Charger, very cool off rear ride.

fryer1979 · 11-01-2012, 06:35 AM

Yep, the curb feelers are still there...
