65' Dart straight axle info

Actually the car is an original altered wheelbase car, and the driver is probably the number one historic Mopar race car restoration guy in the country...world for that matter. The Hemi made over 700 hp, and the combination of altered wheelbase, high horsepower, and modern tires caused the car to wheelstand nearly the entire quarter mile. If I remember correctly the car ran 8flat @ 149 mph just before it hit. He put the car back to beautiful and sold it. Everyone close to that car said it was dangerous.
Just saying be careful, and for a guy who just wants a street car and isn't into nostalgia racing, I'd forget straight axle.
All good.

Naw, I remember back in the 60's and 70's when those cars were the norm. Nothing wrong with that combo as long as it's done correctly and not a hack job. I would rather my Dart have a straight axle set-up than some of these so called 4WDs that are running around jacked up 5 or more feet.
