Nick, I would definitely use FelPro exhaust manifold and collector gaskets. Trust me....you'll be changing those gaskets on a regular basis when they starting burning up.

Sounds like you still have interest. Great reminder of what you started with.

You posted the pic's when I was still typing. The pic's answered my questions.
I'm tinkering a bit again. Ideally I want to buy a better welder.

Nick, you might want to look into having those headers coated. Calico coatings in Denver NC is my recommendation. Fair price and fast turnover.
they will run cooler, quieter and last forever.

Nick! I been wunderin' about you. Glad to see yer at it again on your convertible. Are you planning on running it down to Carlisle next year ?
I've paid for the convertible to live in a barn with other toys for the winter......before it goes I've decided to push along through some parts that need dealt with. I've got calipers coming in Monday from one of my suppliers, one rear cable is still on its way.....I'm putting the glass back in, the top back on and body panels. Bumpers too...
Next year is the ragtop year.

That's a good looking dash pad. Nice to see the progress.
It's a 71 440 dual snorkel air cleaner. The pie tie I bought from the local dealer. Mopar sells them.LOL
That's my original 47 year old dash pad. It feels good to be working on my ragtop again.
I pulled out the prop and hold off I pulled from the 69 Monaco and cleaned and polished them. Will paint the brackets.
Bottom line. I want this car as close to perfect as I can.
Tomorrow I'll try it out and fix a few things. The inner fenders for this car among those things.
A big mile stone...lines tonight...

Hey Nick, I think I remember you posted a query regarding the routing of the power disk brake lines as opposed to drum brake ones? I think you will find that the hard lines are the same. I haven't found any difference in them except for the 70 to 71 model years as they went to a different splitter block on the chassis.
I don't have any lines to use as reference is my issue.

I will have a look at what I have, I may have a set still, I will take photos with a tape measure for reference.
