Pretty much done with all the mechanicals on the 63 Belvedere Wagon. Going to put some fuel in and go Rail on it. If all goes well load it up and deliver it to my Bud in Pahrump and pick up the Duster He painted. Will get pics when I get back.

Getting ready for the Winter fun: drop the tank to rebuild the fuel sender; rewire the under-dash; swap out the oem gauges for Dakota Digital system. But... the barn will finally have heat this Winter, so it won't be as painful to work on Nadine.

Successful trip. The Duster is back home. Yes you can fit a B-Body 8 3/4 in a 73 with Ansen slots 15x8 4 1/2 back space and 275-60s.

Just waiting on the car to get back from paint, Dakota digital gauges, new bezels, painted the old trim. Scratched the dash pretty good trying to get gauges in…not happy about that.

I've been meaning to tidy up the engine compartment for a couple years now. As long as it's torn down so far, I figured it would be a good time to perform some front suspension upgrades too. I started a thread in the Member's Projects & Restorations section to document the rehab, check it out if you'd like to see more...

After a few months of searching I finally found an OEM brake pedal return spring. I painted it yesterday and just installed it.
It does make a difference and returns the pedal a bit. Not too much, but it does help.

Now that the engine compartment is done I’m working on getting the engine ready to go back in…
