'75 Duster /6 driver

[Challenger III]

  Nice work, as usual! 

[Topcat]

well... here we are. can't believe it. Before/After.   Kept the /6 with a few goodies. What a mess it was! UhG.   Shaved and hid everything possible.   I'll get up some pics of the bodywork n stuff more now that I can post.  Been busy...       R/T

WOW!! That's a few hours and Franklins. Looks great.

That engine bay looks fantastic.  Great work - looking forward to seeing the rest of the car.

THANKS EVERYONE!!!        especially C/P.     Josh,Brad,Jason....Tom,Scott... All you guyz!!    I've learned so much here from you.
This hasn't been easy or cheap. It takes a lot of time and dedication. Most of my mopar buds don't know what I've been up to. So it will be fun to pull up with her all painted.  Very seriously considering color coded steelies with white letters now. I wasn't sure on the plum crazy but it's growin' on me.   This is all just practice for the cuda anywayz!    But we are looking for a '70 satellite. (shhhh....)  You guyz know when I'm not around somethins' up.

So I've accentuated the center "belt line".  Can you tell ?    Months and months of work...  Brought the entire shell up to a new level.  The body isn't "perfect"  But it's respectable in my eyes now.  Killed a bunch of rust. Re-did patches that were failing and did them right. Really backed up and beat the crap out of it!  Eastwood. In every nook and cranny. This car is dry now. I know what it takes. And after these last two cars,Every penny I make, and over 10 yrs. of my life.... I'm capable of doing the cuda properly. I have a full shop. All the tools...    A long,long time ago. Here.    Someone wrote " I've never seen anyone go through all the hassle to learn how to do it...To just do one."          And...    "the only way to impress your friends is to sand all day and spray all night"   That pretty much sums it up.    R/T

Thanx all!!  Ya,I like the simple look. Nothin' special. Intake,headers,500 Holley. New timing chain set and gaskets.  The nuts and bolts of the reassembly went just fine. I thought I had the electrical figured out...but then I found these two wires up under the dash that come out right on top of the master cylinder. Both together molded in a plug. One wire has a quick connect and I think I know where that goes. But where does the other one go? It's hard to tell color exactly. Blue or green. Dang I hate electrical!!!!    Lots to do before I can even think of starting her, but it's getting closer...   R/T

Post a pic of the wires your talking about and I'll check on my 75 Dart Sport. That engine bay is sick! The body work is awesome! Well done dude   

[IMNCARN82]

here's a pic of those wires. it's the small rubber plug that comes through the firewall. (the r. one) see it in the background?  two wires,One blue, one green with a clip.  The clip has a "kinked" shape so I think I know where that one goes.  Where does that blue wire go?

Belt line looks great.  Check mymopar.com for wiring diagrams. http://www.mymopar.com/downloads/1975/75ValiantA.jpg

I looked at my 73 but did not find what you have.

Got any better pictures. I could go look again.

[Matt70]

Well I'm having camera issues..... I'll post pics when I get it sorted out. The green and blue wires run across the fire wall and split when the A/C goes through the fire wall. The green plugs into a connecter there. The blue continues around the right side of the motor along the valve cover and connects to a large harness connecter above the distributor. Hope this helps pics......soon?

[IMNCARN82]

hey thanx! ya, that sounds right. where does that wire go to on the other side of that connector by the valve cover then?  THANK YOU!!! R/T

[Matt70]

Here are the pics, The first is the connecter the green goes into. The second shows the harness connecter the blue goes into, third shows what position the blue is at on the connecter. I'll go look and see if I can figure out where it ends up.

[Matt70]

The blue ends at the A/C pressure switch, hope this helps,    Matt

[IMNCARN82]

THANK YOU!!      Hm that might explain my confusion.   I can't wait for those headers to show up!  Just a few more things and I'll be real close to firing her up!!        

[Matt70]

Glad I could help, can't wait to see it done!
