They will take good care of you and do fantastic work. Post some pics as they go or when done. Mine will be there in a week or so for a quick scale job before heading to the track. Maybe yours will still be there so I can check it out.

Are you using the steel hood and bumpers? If so, i would guess close to 4000#.

I'm going to guess around 3500 if it does not have FG parts all over it

The chassis guy thinks 3000-3100. I think that is very low. Although I had a 66 Coronet with 2x3 on leafs with 16x33 all steel and OEM glass and it was 3240 lbs.

I hope you got a long trailer to put that thing in. Mine are only 70+" and if they were any longer my car wouldn't fit in my 40' with living quarters.

Um....Hope you have a lot of trailer, cuase that is a big car and those are some long bars.

Seriously after seeing the work on the Dart I think you are in very good hands.

They are 84" bars so they do stick out about 20-24" past the bumper. It looks like a lot further because of the angle. The huge over hang on this cars helps a lot.

Just a 440 until I get seat time. I will run 10.0 brackets next year. I have not driven in a few years. I am collecting parts for a 572 Procharger motor next.
