[QUOTE="Driver500, post: 14014941, member: 52695"] I reached a point I was happy with on the 72 Duster and sold it. I picked it up as a barely running carport space taker upper and brought it back to a dependable cruiser. Beginning - [ATTACH=full]558505[/ATTACH] End - [ATTACH=full]558506[/ATTACH] I found this 70 Dart in Florida and struck a deal. [ATTACH=full]558507[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558508[/ATTACH] It's got a healthy 360 with a TCI streetfighter 727. 8 1/4 rear with a stronger cover. The trunk was pretty grungy and I figured the rest of the interior was the same under the carpet. Step 1 - Wire brush everything to loosen crud and vacuum Step 2 - Simple Green and wipe down floor Step 3 - Rust Converter to help out with surface oxidation Step 4 - Prime Step 5 - Paint Step 6 - Dynamat floor and dynapad cardboard pass through. [ATTACH=full]558509[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558510[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558511[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558512[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558513[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558514[/ATTACH] I also installed 3 pt retractable seat belts and new seats to replace the old green lap belts and blue APC seats. [ATTACH=full]558515[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558516[/ATTACH] Grill was a bit tired and I wanted to see what turning everything white to black would look like. [ATTACH=full]558517[/ATTACH] First time using plastidip. I made a few mistakes that I'll go back and fix. I learned that you need to pull the tape while the dip is still wet to get a crisp line. I also didn't get the rood as uniform as I'd like. I'll hit again later but it's good enough for now. Took 5 cans to do the scoops, stripe, and roof. [ATTACH=full]558518[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558519[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558520[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558521[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]558522[/ATTACH] Planning on lowering it a bit and tinting the windows next.
