Just stand your trailer on it's side, then you'll recognize the lights Bobby!!!!!

Nice work on those tail lights, Dave. Very unique! Some company makes a little tail light controller that makes them come on sequentially, from the outside in, instead of all six at once. I dont know who it is but I've seen them in action and they look pretty spiffy. Just a thought.

Dang good idea Falcon, gotta get me one of them. Thanks for the reminder, seen them on eBay from time to time!!!!

Looks like a musmaro for sure, but I like it. Some changes on the front end & you'll have 'em stratchin' their heads trying to figure it out.

Got the hinge parts cleaned & paired up this afternoon. Dave, don't be tellin' me they look like mustang hinges.

oppps. forgot the pic.

Hey Pro, great looking set of Torino hinges!!!!!!!!!!!! Some more gorgeous work, as always!!!!

Pro70 that is some great work . Looks like some Monarch work or some sort of CNC.

Nicely done Pro70, those your creation? Well done, simple and sweet.

Dave, she is truely a great looking car, well done.

I am starting my next project, putting my BB mopar in my 70 dart. Dissassembly starts monday, looking forward to getting back into the shop again, been a dry spell for me.

Yup, I designed 'em. I used the stock hinges to get the geometry right. (Hope the doors open str8). Save about 3 lbs. per hinge, but mostly they will be lift off to get the doors out of the way to service the car. Next is to make pins & bushings on the lathe, Weld the hinge to the base from the back side & drill a couple more mounting holes that couldn't be cut on the CNC. Then it's time to get the doors mounted.

The dart looks like a cool project Brick.

Brick will you be able to change the plugs once that monster is in . Big blocks i have allways admired in cars . Just says something different when the hood is open and the sun is setting just right . . Harlequin eat your heart out LOL

Amen to that brother! It will be a challenge but with some narrow tri-y headers it isn't too bad. That engine really ran hard in my ol' 85 truck, I am looking forward to hearing it in this dart. I have a 292 comp rock and roller with a stall to go into her before the dart. Should be a blast to drive I am thinking.

Those old Darts are fun, had one with a 340, ran plenty strong!!! Well, Merc 2 isn't done, just some pinstripes and clear over the primer, no hood installed yet, and no interior but the guys sure are having fun with it!!!! Soon as the weather gets cold I guess we'll get back on it and get it done, for now it sure is a fun driver though!!!!

Dave, you do absolutely outstanding work, that baby is gorgous in primer!! I am loving the pinstriping, I guess you guys are planning to leave it in primer huh? What a great looking car, that Would be a blast to cruise in, have you had her out Dave?

Dave see it made it back . There are some sweeping lines in that look. Seat time would be a kick im sure.
