Also, since I have been driving my dart with the moog front end conponents- no problems getting it aligned, holds the road great, I can let go of the wheel at 70 and tracks straight. No issues this far with Moogs problem solver line of parts.

@legopnuematic,

Yep. Eastwood makes a coating like Temco's. It's real good for controlling corrosion and rust. I wasn't that knowledgable when I did my frame off. I washed it with soap and hot water using a set of brushes to get into all the nooks and crannies, let it dry, it looked real good after just washing the metal. Then I just used 2 coats of Krylon semi-gloss. It's still holding up even though its a little dirty in places like around the engine and trans. But here recently I got under there and hit it with Engine Bright and a heavy scrub brush on the trans and as far back as needed. Now it's clean again but you can see the wear after over 25+ years on the street.

@legopnuematic,

I like that year Swinger. I had a '64 Dart decades ago, but what I wanted instead was a '65
Barracuda with the big glass in the back. My best bud in high school had one his dad bouight him for his senior year, we had a blast in that sucker! It had the 225 c.i. slant six in it and that thing would haul ass. He found a pair of cheater slicks at a pawn shop and we put those things on that car and went around terrorizing everyone. It was hilarious!
