7 1/4 Meets its maker

9" .. here I come! A friend of mine gave me this bit of wisdom about 7 1/4s years ago when i got the Dart for the rugrat .. " Those things will grenade just driving across town" ... I've been lucky. I have a vague memory of him sitting on a mop bucket in the lube bay of the station I worked at on a warm desert summer night putting the 8 3/4 in his '66 GT. The $25 8 3/4 with posi and 4.10s. I think the only new parts we had in that hot rod were the Purple Shaft and the FREE Hooker Headers.
