Able to get another nice Dart after I blew mine up at 17

Welcome to FABO, Joey.
Similar to you, I also previously owned a '69 Dart but mine had a 340/727 engine/trans combo. But unlike you I built mine into a really strong street runner that eventually had a manual-shift-reverse-pattern 727 and 4.88 rear gears. I couldn't drive it on the SoCal freeways but it was quick in the stoplight-to-stoplight drags. I later got stupid and decided to turn it into a race car and then got even stupider and sold it during a minor financial crisis.
And again, similar to you, I found another '69 Dart that's turned into a 10-year project that I hope to finally have back on the road later this year.

Post up some pics of your new toy when you get it!
