New pics of my 69!
I agree, as long as they aren't Rallye Rims!! :)
LOOKING GREAT, George!! Wadda mean "next owner"??
Don't you plan on enjoying winding out the 340??
Did you ever get your engine "issues" resolved??
Hiya Frank! Good to hear from ya, kid. Yeah, the "issue" was a bad freakin condenser. I was about to set the damned car on fire and buy another Vette I was so pissed off at it! LOL A local friend of mine took a shot in the dark and he was right. Swapped out the new condenser for another new one, and it fired right up.
I was thinking about your car this am when I was cleaning up the mess that was made after I blew the bypass hose off the intake at 4500 RPM! God, that shtuff got everywhere! LMAO!
That color doesnt seem to really go off well on a lot of cars IMO. But it looks AWESOME on your Dart George. Really nice all the way around!!!
Thanks man. I aint really too keen on gold either, but thats what the tag calls for so gold it is. I would have painted it 63 Vette Riverside Red if it wasn't a numbers car. I love red cars!
Wheels and car look great, that color combo with the black looks hot too. Your not planning to get rid of that hot lookin' ride are you?
Well.........I dunno when exactly, but it will be for sale someday. Maybe late next summer. I'll build another 69 Dart, but it will be a 440 4-speed and maybe a Dana rear. The market sucks right now, and although I'm not upside down in the car, it would be foolish to try and sell it now. I would need over 25K for it at least.
Thanks to all for the kind words. There are still a few bugs in it to work out, but I'll get there. First one is the freakin goofy trans kickdown adjustment. Yes, I read the service manual 9 ways from Sunday and it still doesn't make sense! LOL
