Getting the dart ready for its first road trip?

Why do you need it to shift so high? The Shop Manuals say 15mph. Your automatic shift points ( letting it shift in drive) are based on kickdown adjustment.

Made several trips from the NW to the LA area fr Springfling in old Mopars, 67 Dart with a 273 and a 67 Fury vert. No AC or Sirrus. Top down most of the way in the vert except whne going through central Oregon. It was snowing. Had a blast on all the trips. Went solo on one so it was kinda a slw trip with nodody to talk with.

Make sure you put together an emergency kit. Belts, hoses, Orange Box and extra resistor (if you are running that), extra bottle of antifreeze, extra oil, hand soap, shop towels etc. If there's room a jack and a pair of jackstands. Oh, add a couple of front and rear wheel bearings and seals.

AAA is not a bad idea so you can get flat towed to a safe place to work on the car.
