Re: Pictures of your ride !

Out and about.
Overcharging, leaking pitman arm seal and tyre clearance issues but I decided to go a few miles just to remind me why I bout it.

Re: Voltage Regulator and 18 volt charging

Thanks for that Mick.
Yes the ammeter is way over as soon as I touch the throttle, I did notice it was well over when I bought the car but thought nothing of it.
I just ordered a voltage regulator off RockAuto, here on Wednesday.

Voltage Regulator and 18 volt charging

Looks like the battery has been getting cooked every time I have driven the car, it failed to start after a week sat in the garage waiting for wheels and tyres.
I trickle charged it for a couple of days started it and checked the charging voltage......18.4 volts :scratch: :shock:
Drove it to a ...

Recent new member, Sharpy's 70 Dart

I have been on here a couple of months now, as some know I got the car off a member on the forum.

I changed a couple of things already.

This is how it looks now.

Re: Front hub bearing grease cap

I solved the problem myself.

The cap is 1.78 inches, it's a Dorman part 618101 (13975)

Ordered 2 from RockAuto, £5.94 plus the delivery and tax.

Front hub bearing grease cap

I got some front wheel bearing grease caps from rock auto, they're too small, although they were on the right menu for the car.
Does anyone know where to get the right size ones.
They are about 1 3/4" on mine.
rock auto lists 1 9/16 as the right size.
Would 45mm caps fit.
Thanks.

Re: sharpandroids 70 Dart

I'm not too keen on the arch trims either, so they're coming off.

sharpandroids 70 Dart

I bought a 70 Dart 318, 904, 7.25 rear.

I've done more miles in it in two weeks than it did in the last three years.
Started a new job also, that's why I haven't been on here much.

I've had a good look round it and am happy with what I see up to now.

Went to melbourne to see the Drags, met some ...

I'm now a 1970 Dodge Dart owner

So I bought mr m's Dart, it's arriving later today, thought it best to get it transported what with the weather and distance, I'm up in York.
I have a 22ft x 9 ft garage, it's not much room I know but at least it will fit.

Hope to go to a fairly local car meet tonight, it's a place called the ...

Re: 14" wheels 5 x 4 pattern

Are adaptor plates frowned upon, I don't really like the idea and the backspacing would be affected, an easy solution though.
Ill get in touch with GAS at some point when i've got a list together, hopefully not a long list for now :lol:

Re: A Decoded Fender Tag

From what I can find, the paint code EF8 is now F8 that they are using on the new Muscle variants.
I'll maybe get some for touch ups.

Re: 14" wheels 5 x 4 pattern

I like the look of steel and hubcaps.
Are 15's with the small stud pattern still available in the states, summit had some on the website, would cost well over a grand with shopping and tax.
I'll only need one set.....
I could do the other stuff later, axle wise I believe a 7.25 might be ok if I'm ...

Re: 14" wheels 5 x 4 pattern

Like hens teeth.

There is an option to change to 5 x 4.5" I assume but I imagine that to be less than straight forward.
Is it post 72 cars or disc brake conversions and axle shafts.
