Update....I have not had any time to work on the car much lately but I did figure out that the 9 1/4 rear just will not work out so I am having an 8 3/4 built as we speak and should have it by the end of the week. I should be able to get it installed this weekend, so I will post pics then.

Ok, been a loooong time since last post on this car. It is a very slow build, due to time and motivation lol. I have the motor back from the machine shop and am putting that back together this week and the 727 trans is completely rebuilt too. All of the suspension is and brakes are on the car after I finally got the 8 3/4 at the right width, it is in as well and now the car is at the body shop. This is a pic of the car right before we loaded it up. I'll post progress pics of the bodywork as we go.

It's been a long time since I have posted anything about this project, mostly becasue I have not been doing anything with it until lately. I am finally back on track with this build and hope to have it done by next spring. Here it is last weekend home from paint...finally!
The indoor pics do not do the color justice.

Thanks, the updates should be more often now. I sold the Foose wheels and am going with 18" and 19" Intro's now to give it a little more aggressive look, we'll see how low I can get it too!

LOVE the LIme green Leaf spring treatment!... LOL... I truly appreciate when people take a path less traveled in the car world. Need more Dusters, Scamps, Swingers, and Darts on the road.
Heck If I could find one un-rusted I'd even vote for a Volare' R/t... LOL

a couple new pics, been collecting some parts but now seeing a little progress. Threw the wiring harness in today and started seperating the different sections and thinking about what routes I want.

Been a while, but the car is just about there. It's alive and running now, just getting to the final assembly and tune, wheels and interior. Here it is with the new wheels. Now I can work on the stance as well...nice and low.
