Me and my wife were driven around in this car at our wedding by my best man here's a picture of him leaving the church, he is always talking about imports, but he I think i might have him changed to muscle!!!

Here are some of the plans i have for my DART, I plan on doing a full restore to it including: new quarter planes, paint inside hood compartment, interior, trunk, underside of car, rebuild motor to get around 500HP, everything new that I can, and then when complete i will then give it to my oldest daughter on her 16th birthday.


Here's a pic of my dad's '69 gmc pickup, it's has been totally customized from ground up, including: 3 inch chopped roof, 463 engine putting out over 600HP, automatic trans. 2:56 posi rear end, dual flowmaster exhaust, Huger orange, complete stereo system, lowered suspension.

Here's a picture of my brother-in-law's '98 dodge neon R/T, it's pretty much stock right now but he has alot of plans for it, it has american racing rims, complete stereo system, lowered. it's a working progress that I have been doing the too.

Also I gave a '92 GMC Sonoma to my wife on our wedding day it's lowered, full stereo system, aftermarket rims, a quarter cap, billet grille. pictures coming soon!!!

*******UPDATED april 30/ 2006 *******

Well here's some pictures of my wife's little sonoma I gave her, notice in this picture the billet grille that's in it, which I got after I broke the previous one when a deer hit me on the way to work one morning lucky that's all that was damaged!

Here's a picture of the front right side, you can noice the sun visor, and the early style Z24 hood scoops that my father cut out of a hood, you can also notice the 1/4 cap which have two MTX 12" subs in it.

Here's a pic of the aftermarket rims that my dad picked up for a very low price!

nosty's 1971 Dodge Dart

Here a picture of the back of it which you can see it has a roll pan, and some crystal tail lights, you can also notice the 1/4 cap a little better at this angle.

Future plans include and engine swamp from 2.5 litre to a stock 5.0 litre, i'm leaving it standard, and putting some different rear end gears in it to get better fuel mileage, also getting it repainted and my wife is going to do some air brushing on it not too sure of what yet, relocating tail gate handle to inside, going to make a metal toneau cover which will open by a push of a button, We are keeping the same factory colour, because it suits it, also getting daul exhaust for it with flowmaster mufflers.

Here's a picture of my family hauler which I picked up for a great price, It's a '96 dodge caravan se, it has all the options, a deer hit it back in Feb 2006 and it had $2700 damage to the front drivers side.

Here's a picture of my father-in-laws 2002 pontiac grand prix GT 4dr, it's stock but he has some plans for it in the future.

You know you have a lot of options for suspentiong on a Dart these days. It all depends on how much you want to spend, and what the car is used for. I really like the parts I used on my build. It handles like a sports car, takes turns flat, it rides smooth yet firm, and it feels very solid. Oh and it looks stock but its not. Thats what I really like about the suspention. The only thing I don't like is the 3:23 gear, its not what a performance 340 wants. I tried a 3:73 and it felt way better, but it revs a little on the highway. 3:23 is a great gear but not for the cam I have in the car. I like what you have to work with, your 71 was made to look like a 70, nice. Oh and your dads truck is kick ass.
