I just traded a little Suzuki GN125 for a 1963 Dart. This will be my first restoration project. Does anyone have any good sources for me to read through?
The engine runs strong and transmission seems to work well. Brakes are no good. I was thinking it might be best to convert the brakes to disks. Is this a feasible task for me to attempt or would I be better off starting by restoring the drums to working order? If i pump the pedal quickly I get a little pressure but it goes away almost instantly. The handbrake does work. I looked at the master cylinder and it looks like someone cut the lines that I assume to be the rear feed and then added a spliter to the main line. This seems sketchy to me so I assumed I would have to replace the Master Cylinder anyways.
I was also thinking about upgrading the suspension. Any recommendations on what to go with?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
