The "book" is actually facts from a gazillion references that are out there. One book doesn't cover it all. There is no "book".

I have been restoring cars for over 30 years and recently retired. But my knowledge, and sources, are still available. I have compiled many books and notes on cars and can be a good resource for you. I can even help you find the parts you need (including those pieces of unobtainium) through all my resources. I have done this for years (including helping out other major restoration shops) and would love the opportunity to work with you. PM me

I am pretty much the expert on 67-69 Darts and get dozens of calls and emails each week from people looking to restore those cars, that is what sites like Moparts are all about so people can find and use the resources that are out there.

Would it be a better plan to start with a project that is more complete? A project that will take years will deprive you of the joy of driving a finished machine. It's nice to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Just sayin. Good luck with it. live every 24 hour block of time like it's your last day on earth

Although it would be great if something like that were created. Although I want to look, just recently found coursework writing, used https://edubirdie.com/coursework-writing for this. I often do so because I do not want to do everything myself. All the more I have free time. Last edited by Ben Rogers; 11/29/22 06:56 AM.
