70 Dodge Dart-440 6-Pack

[Mopar2]

Here is my problem build.My 70 Dart 440 6-Pack...I didn't prep the body well.I know better now.I primed it.Then painted her Metallic Purple.And when I went to do the Chrome Foil.The paint started peeling off the body...Well I got the rest of the paint off using warm water.Then sanded her alittle.Primed her and painted her Mica Blue Metallic...I put a 440 6-Barrel out of a GTX model kit in her.Added headers.And made the Ralleye wheels a deeper dish.I also narrowed the rear to get fatter Goodyears under her...Sleeper???Maybe...Thanks for looking...

It's a 440 6-Pack in a Dodge...And a 440 6-Barrel in a Plymouth...I took the motor out of a Plymouth GTX.So technically it's a 440 6-Barrel...

Looks great! Is this a resin body?

She looks like one fine "sleeper" to me.

Since you put the motor into a Dodge, I think it technically became a Six Pack. Mother Mopar will let you bend the rules a bit. Besides, no one will ever see the VIN on the block ?

Great looking Dart, btw!
